Moodigere: A provocative and at the same time a controversial statement has come from the Taluk Bajrangdal Convenor Avinash. "If Hindu outfits take up machetes then they are capable of eliminating the Muslims here in no time," Avinash said while addressing the VHP and Bajrangdal protestors who staged a Rasta Roko at the Lions Circle here condemning Deepak Rao murder at Katipalla near Mangaluru.
M K Pranesh, MLC who also addressed the protestors alleged that the PFI activists were resorting to killings of Hindu activists and demanded a ban on PFI and SDPI. "The Chief Minister who was touring the state was sowing the seeds of hatred," he further alleged and dubbed the CM as communal.
Former MLA M P Kumaraswamy accused the state government of not releasing even a penny for the development of Moodigere constituency. It is shameful on the part of the CM to inaugurate the projects for which funds were released during the previous BJP rule, he added.
The activists later submitted a memorandum to the Tahsildar.
Taluk Panchayat President K C Ratna, Vice President Savitha Umesh and many others participated in the protest.

New Delhi (PTI): A 32-year-old food delivery executive was stabbed to death when he allegedly intervened in a violent altercation between two groups in southwest Delhi's Dwarka, police said on Monday.
The deceased has been identified as Govind Jha, a resident of Mohan Garden.
Three others sustained stab injuries in the incident and are currently undergoing treatment at a hospital, they said.
Authorities also cautioned against attempts to give the incident a communal colour.
According to the police, Jha was on his way to work on Sunday night when he noticed a street fight taking place at Rajapuri in Madhu Vihar area of Dwarka. The altercation involved two men pitted against three others, who were later identified as Parvesh, Anish and Rohit.
"Jha stopped at the spot and attempted to intervene. During the scuffle, the two men allegedly pulled out knives and began stabbing Parvesh, Anish and Rohit. When Jha tried to intervene, he was also attacked," a police officer said.
All four injured persons were rushed to a nearby hospital, where Jha succumbed to his injuries during treatment. The other three men are under medical observation.
Police said the accused fled the spot after the incident, and multiple teams have been formed to identify and apprehend them.
Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka) Kushal Pal Singh, in a statement, said that some messages circulating on social media are attempting to give a communal angle to the incident.
"In the incident, four people suffered stab injuries and were admitted to the hospital. One person died at the hospital, and the remaining three are undergoing treatment. The victims belong to two different communities. The accused stabbed all four victims. Dwarka Police is conducting a search for the accused," the DCP said.
"There is no communal angle to the incident. Strict action will be taken against those spreading false information," he said.
