See below full statement from the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha:
“The Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha strongly condemns any attempt to promote racial and religious hostility among citizens. The diverse population of this country has been respectful to each other and practised religious harmony for generations.
“The government through its many programmes is actively pursuing a vision to promote unity and prosperity for all.
“The promotion of law and order is the cornerstone of a progressive and peaceful society.
“The irresponsible outburst and the reference to religion by the Mayor to create division among citizens is abominable and should not be tolerated. We call on all Guyanese not to allow ourselves to be divided by persons whose narrow agenda is to create tension and animosity.”
