BJP Yuva Morcha protests in Mangaluru against delay in filing FIR against Congress MLC Ivan D’Souza
Ullal: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Mangaluru Unit Yuva Morcha protested on Wednesday evening for the police delaying the filing of FIR against Congress MLC Ivan D’Souza for criticizing Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot for permitting the prosecution of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, who is facing allegations of being allocated a site under the Mysore Urban Development Authority (MUDA) illegally.
BJP District Vice-president Ravindra Shetty Ulidottu, who also participated in the protest, and members of the Yuva Morcha who allegedly attempted to lead a blockade were reportedly taken into custody by the police.
The BJP youth forum members, who staged their protest below the Thokkottu flyover in the city, also accused the Congress government in the state of delaying the investigation of the case against the CM by a misuse of the Police Department. Calling the City Police as ‘spineless’ in the presence of the Congress government in taking action against MLC D’Souza for his strong statement, they said that immediate action was taken against the BJP for bursting firecrackers after winning the recent elections.
