Union Minister for Skill Development Anantkumar Hegde has said that people without any pedigree were identifying themselves as secularists.
"If a person identifies himself as a Muslim, Christian, Brahmin, Hindu, it means that he knows what his blood is. But, I don't know how to identify these secularists. Those who do not have any pedigree, designate themselves as secularists," he ridiculed.
The minister was speaking after launching the website and women's wing of Brahmana Yuva Parishat in Kukanur of Yalburga taluk on Sunday.
"I presume there are no secularisits here. Identify yourself with our caste or creed. You know what your blood is," the minister said.
