"The incident has to be strongly condemned. I urge the people of Delhi to strongly protest against it.", he said.
A church was vandalised by some unidentified persons today in south Delhi's Vasant Kunj area, sparking outrage among the Christian community, which alleged that it is part of a "hate campaign". The incident at St Alphonsa's church came just five days ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections on Saturday.
