Australia's Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has been accused of making "racist" comments about Hinduism and other Indian religions in Parliament.
Frydenberg made several references to the Indian religions in Parliament on February 28. In a statement issued on February 29, the Hindu Council of Australia described the comments as "brazen, racist and Hindu-phobic", calling for an apology.
Hinduism is a minority religion in Australia, making up 1.9 per cent of the population as of the 2016 census.
