Mysuru, June 13: Progressive thinker Prof Mahesh Chandra Guru alleged that the Hindu fundamentalists have their role in the murder of progressive people.

Speaking to reporters at his residence in the city on Wednesday, Prof Guru said that the central government has indirectly supported the killings of MM Kalburgi, Gauri Lankesh, Dabholkar and Pansare. After NDA took over the regime in the country, progressive writers and thinkers were targeted, he said.

Those who killed Gauri, might have killed Kalburgi, Dabholkar and Pansare. It was the handi-work of Hindu fundamentalists. There could be Pramod Mutalik of Sri Rama Sene or there could be some Hindu organizations which have been propagating Hindutva ideology. Lok Sabha Members Pratap Simha, Shobha Karandlaje, Naleen Kumar Kateel are fools. They might have relationship with the suspected killers of Gauri Lankesh, he said.

He did not apply for police security. But the government itself has given the police security, he said.
