Presiding over the Prayer Meetting held here to pay homage to slain Hindu monk Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati, who was killed on August 23 allegedly by Christian Militants, King of Holy city Puri in Indian eastern state Orissa Gajapati Maharaja Dibya Singh Dev on Sunday said now this time was a do or die situation for the Hindu community. "The attack on Swamiji is an attack on the basic foundations of Indian culture," he said, adding that all should be united to protect the Hindu culture.
 
Maharaja further said that the attack was the outcome of a conspiracy against the Swamiji. " For the last 40 years, he had spent his life for the protection of Sanatan Dharma(Sanatana Religion). He devoted all his energy to stop conversions," said the Maharaja, adding that he was left alone in his fight and killed.
 
Urging all cults of the Hindu Religion to become united and fight against the onslaught, he said if no steps are taken at this moment, no one could think of what would be the future of Hindu dharma after 50 years.
 
"It just like a do or die situation," he said, adding that all should come to protect the Hindu Religion. Members of different cults of Hindu society and revered Monks turned up to attend the Metting.

Do you have any links to stories about this murder? realize you must have wrote this. I'd suspect muslims disguised as Christians to promote dissension as the killers.

The police suspect Maoist rebels killed them but some Hindu groups blamed Christians for the murders and went on the rampage. Christian groups have repeatedly denied the charge.
Since the evening of Aug 23, the state has witnessed communal violence in which 16 people have died and thousands have been rendered homeless. It forced the government to deploy police and paramilitary forces in 12 of the 30 districts of Orissa.
