Bengaluru, June 8: MP and state BJP general secretary Shobha Karandlaje was booked at the Vidhana Soudha police station against ‘insulting’ the sentiments of Hindu religion.
In his complaint, advocate S Nataraj Sharma urged the police to register case against Shobha Karandlaje under Column 298 for insulting the seers of Hindu religion and take legal action against her. In her press conference, Karandlaje said that Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji of Pejawar Mutt was a Sanyasi and he was aged. He could not watch television. Such statements would hurt the Sanyasis, he said in the complaint.
Pejawar seer spoke against the central government for its failure in cleaning the river Ganges and bringing back the black money.
But while responding to this, Shobha has given irresponsible statement on the seer and insulted him. So, action should be taken against the BJP leader, he demanded.

Pune, Nov 16: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis continued to raise the pitch on "vote jihad" by playing a video of Islamic scholar Sajjad Nomani at a poll rally in Pune's Bhosari area on Saturday.
It is being said that a person who votes for the BJP must be ostracised, Fadnavis claimed.
"If these people are trying to do vote jihad, if they are saying they will destabilise the government through vote jihad, then you will also have to do dharmayudh of votes," Fadnavis said.
"If these people dream that they will come to power with the help of votes from one community in the land of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, then you will also have to come to the battlefield," he said in a swipe at the MVA.
