HYDERABAD: Former Telangana minister and Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLA Sabitha Indra Reddy on Wednesday condemned the alleged assault on two women in Almasguda area of Ranga Reddy district and urged the Telangana Police to identify those responsible and take legal action against them.
The incident reportedly took place in Almasguda, under the limits of Meerpet Police Station in Hyderabad, where locals allegedly caught two women who were preaching Christianity among schoolgirls and attempting religious conversion.
As per the information, locals confronted the two women and questioned them over the alleged religious conversion activities before allegedly assaulting them. The entire incident was captured on a mobile phone, and the video has since gone viral on social media.
Two Christian women were found luring small children with chocolates and trying to convert them in Hyderabad.🤦🏻
Parents caught them and slapped them.
Even though I don’t agree with the slapping part, it is a criminal offences to convert minor children and they deserve strictest punishment

Reacting to the incident, Sabitha Indra Reddy took to her X handle and expressed distress over the alleged attack, stating that any objections concerning religious freedom should be addressed through legal channels rather than physical violence.
In her post, she said, “It is very distressing to see the video of a man brutally attacking two women in the Almasguda area of Rangareddy district. It is deeply distressing to watch the video of a man carrying out a brutal assault on two women in the Almasguda area of Ranga Reddy district.”
రంగారెడ్డి జిల్లాలోని అల్మాస్‌గూడ ప్రాంతంలో ఇద్దరి మహిళలపై ఒక వ్యక్తి అత్యంత దారుణంగా దాడి చేస్తున్న వీడియో చూస్తుంటే చాలా బాధాకరంగా ఉంది.
మత స్వేచ్ఛకు సంబంధించిన విషయంలో ఎవరికైనా అభ్యంతరాలు ఉంటే చట్టబద్ధంగా తెలియజేయాలి కానీ మహిళలపై భౌతిక దాడులకు పాల్పడటం ఎంతమాత్రం సమర్థనీయం కాదు.
ఈ ఘటనపై తెలంగాణ పోలీసులు వెంటనే స్పందించి, దాడికి పాల్పడిన వారిని గుర్తించి చట్టపరమైన చర్యలు తీసుకోవాలి. బాధిత మహిళలకు రక్షణ కల్పించి న్యాయం చేయాలి.
మహిళలపై దాడులను తీవ్రంగా ఖండిస్తున్నాం.

She further said, “If anyone has objections regarding matters of religious freedom, they should raise them through legal channels; resorting to physical violence against women is, under no circumstances, justifiable.”
Calling for immediate police intervention, the BRS MLA added, “The Telangana Police must respond immediately to this incident, identify the perpetrators, and take legal action against them. They must also ensure the safety of the victims and provide them with justice. We strongly condemn these attacks on women.” (ANI)
