NEVADA - Hindus have urged Queen of Pop Madonna to “wholeheartedly” work for Roma cause and not just donate a used pair of shoes for the Roma charity.
Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, said in a statement that Madonna, who was against Roma discrimination and who was the highest earning musician of the world making around 110 million dollars in a year, should help the Roma people, who were facing apartheid conditions.

Madonna is donating one of her favorite specially made pair of autographed designer skyscraper gold heels Christian Dior shoes to a charity supporting education of Roma children, which will be auctioned off at the fifth annual Ovidiu Rom Halloween Charity Ball to be held at Parliament Palace in Bucharest (Romania) later this month.

The footwear is reportedly marked with kisses and a heart by her while the other is autographed “Love Madonna”.

The money collected will be used to buy clothes and schoolbooks for Roma children.
Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, said that Madonna would be very effective in focusing public opinion world over on apartheid of 15-million Roma people of Europe.

He added if she wanted his services in regard to Roma cause, he was willing to support her.

He further mentioned that Roma had reportedly recently faced heightened discrimination in Hungary, Romania, Italy, etc.
Madonna was reportedly booed and jeered at her Bucharest concert in August by thousands of fans when she sympathized with Roma people. (ANI)
