Let him touch me if he can: BJP leader M.B Devayya challenges Pratap Simha
Madikeri, Sept 15: Responding to MP Pratap Simha’s statement on a social networking site, District BJP leader M.B Devayya opined “It would be better for the party as well as for the nation, if Pratap Simha, who contested the Lok Sabha polls by someone else’ gracefulness and became the MP; drops charges against me.”
M.B Devayya had snubbed the MP for giving wrong information to the central assessment team when it visited Hebbettageri. For this, the MP had stated on a social networking site that he did not respond to Devayya because he is elder to him.
“I am now eighty-eight years old. MP Pratap Simha is of my son’s age. I have grown up to this level through public struggles since I was a student. If you want, let's sit and talk about what is MP Pratap Simha’s social service,” Devayya said.
Responding to MP Pratap Simha’s statement, M.B Devayya said “Let Pratap Simha touch me if he has that capacity. I have seriously questioned the Parliamentarian to make sure that the victims of the natural disaster do not face injustice, build confidence among them and motivate them. “Apart from this, I did not use any unconstitutional word,” he clarified.
