[1]NDTV • Controversial Statements on Kerala Floods In 2018, amid the Kerala floods, Swami made a controversial statement. In an interview, he said, "I am also appealing for help in Kerala. But help should be given to those who respect nature and creatures. When roti was available to people in Kerala, they were slaughtering the cow to eat her meat. So, what I mean is that Hindus should provide help to those who avoid cow meat, those who are trying to hurt the Hindu religion by deliberating eating cow and slaughtering her on the road should not be forgiven. People who eat beef should not receive any help. If they have to be provided for help, they should be asked to sign a pledge that they would never eat beef in the future.” Some sections of the society did not like his statement, and later, someone hacked the official website of Hindu Mahasabha and uploaded a recipe of spicy beef curry on the website. [2]The Free Press Journal • Listed Among Fake Babas In 2018, he sent a defamation notice of Rs. 11 crores against the three office bearers of Akhara Parishad for listing him in the fake babas list.
