Bhatkal: Bhatkal MLA Mankala Subba Vaidya said that whoever may be the person who attacked me, but the god, who is protecting me, is greater than the killer. "God's protection, poor people's blessings will always be there with me," he added.

The MLA's statement came after he escaped unhurt on Sunday, in a bomb blast which took place about 40-50 meters away from him.

It is believed that the incident was planned to kill the MLA.

"Those, who do not like my speed development, have attempted to kill me. I do not want to accuse anybody in this regard, but it was a politically motivated attempt. I trust God, and people of my constituency stood by me. I believe that police department will take stern action against the culprit. Who was he and why did he want to kill me, answers to all such questions will be cleared only after a thorough police investigation," Mankala Subba Vaidya said.
