Those who don’t chant Bharat Mata should be killed in encounter: BJP MP's controversial statement
Hyderabad: The BJP national general secretary Bandi Sanjay made a controversial remark on Tuesday during the BJP’s rally held in Adilabad. The Karimnagar MP said that people who attacked Hindus in Bhainsa would be beaten and chased down the streets if BJP in Telangana comes to power, reports The News Minute.
Addressing the gathering at the Jana Garjana Sabha, the MP said, “Modi’s rule must come in Telangana, so that those who attacked Hindu society and created destruction in Bhainsa, and the people from AIMIM who raped minors, are stripped and chased down the streets.”
He added, “Those who are hoisting Pakistan flags instead of chanting Bharat Mata ki Jai should be killed in encounters and buried in Pakistan.”
The controversial remarks by the MP goes against the Model Code of Conduct, which states that “there shall be no appeal to caste or communal feelings for securing votes…”
He further referred to Adilabad as ‘Hindutva adda’ calling it the land of Komaram Bheem who fought against Nizam oppression. He compared Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao with Nizam VIII and Amit Shah to Sardar Patel who will oust KCR just like Sardar Patel ousted Nizam.

'Someone must be held accountable': HC converts civil suit on Goa nightclub tragedy into PIL
Panaji (PTI): The Bombay High Court on Monday converted a civil suit against Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub into a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) saying "someone has to be held accountable" for the tragedy in which 25 people were killed.In a stern observation, Goa bench of the High Court of Justices Sarang Kotwal and Ashish Chavan said the local panchayat had "failed to take suo motu cognisance" of the club and had taken "no action despite complaints."
The division bench directed the Goa government to file a detailed reply on the permissions granted to the nightclub.
The High Court, while fixing January 8 as the next date of hearing, pointed out that commercial operations were continuing in the structure despite it having been served a demolition order.
The original petition was filed after the December 6 tragedy by Pradeep Ghadi Amonkar and Sunil Divkar, the owners of the land on which the nightclub was operating.

Advocate Rohit Bras de Sa, the lawyer representing the petitioner, was made amicus curiae in the matter and has been asked to file a detailed affidavit in the matter.
In their petition, Amonkar and Divkar highlighted "the alarming pattern of statutory violations that have remained inadequately addressed despite multiple complaints, inspections, show-cause notices, and even a demolition order".
They contended that these violations posed "immediate threats to public safety, ecological integrity, and the rule of law in the state of Goa."
Investigations by multiple agencies into the nightclub fire have revealed various irregularities, including lack of permissions to operate the nightclub.
The Goa police arrested five managers and staff members of the club, while co-owners Gaurav Luthra and Saurabh Luthra have been detained in Thailand after they fled the country.
