The new adage of coastal Karnataka is that only a dead body gets MP Shobha Karandlaje’s attention. A dead body is found somewhere, and she makes her presence felt. This fact is now well known to media and commoners alike. She is famous to have included the names of those alive too, to the ‘dead Hindus’ list and had demanded an NIA investigation on the matter. She had tried to ensure more dead bodies fell in Karwar following the mysterious death of a person who met his end by drowning.
