Bengaluru: Prakash Gowda has alleged that he was attacked by the activists of Sangh Parivar. He added that he was attacked for questioning the whereabouts of dead bodies of 300 terrorists who were killed in the IAF air strike in Pakistan territory on Tuesday 26 February.

Gowda had questioned about the dead bodies of the terrorist who were killed in a Facebook post. He was severely criticized and eventually the Sangh Parivar activists allegedly attacked him.

Speaking to VarthaBharati over phone call, Gowda added “Out of curiosity I questioned about the dead bodies of 300+ terrorist, who our media channels claimed were killed in the IAF air strike. I just wanted to know about it. But the Sangh Parivar called me treason and attacked me”.

“I have never posted anything against my country on Facebook, they just made me a soft target out of this. Chamarajanagar police also didn’t come to my aid, not the district administration came to my rescue despite the fact that I was attacked in the vicinity of SP’s office” he added.

He further added “Two secular parties have formed coalition government in our state, even then these fringe forces continue their hooliganism. Anyone questioning the right wing and central government are being attacked. The government and police department immediately should initiate action in this regard and bar them from continuing the hooliganism”.

Raipur (PTI): Amid reports of shortage of commercial LPG cylinder in several parts of the country due to the US-Israel-Iran conflict, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai on Tuesday assured people that they need not worry about the availability of cooking gas in the state.

He asserted that adequate stock of LPG as well as petrol and diesel was available in the state.

Sai said in a statement that authorities have been directed to regularly monitor stock at gas agencies and keep a close watch on the supply chain. Necessary instructions were issued to officials in all districts to ensure a smooth supply of LPG.

The chief minister instructed officials to take strict action if any complaint of black marketing or hoarding of LPG cylinders is received.

Sai urged state residents not to pay attention to rumours and to book cooking gas cylinders as per their actual requirement.

The government was fully alert to ensure the availability of essential commodities to citizens, he emphasised.

Meanwhile, the Chhattisgarh Hotel and Restaurant Association has issued an advisory to hotels, restaurants, caterers and other food businesses across the state, urging them to maintain calm and avoid panic buying.

In the advisory, Taranjeet Singh Hora, president of the association, asked members to maintain coordination and immediately inform it about any major disruption in LPG supply.

He cautioned businesses against hoarding cylinders, saying such practices could worsen the situation for the entire hospitality sector.

The association advised hotels and restaurants to prioritise essential kitchen operations, core menu items and already committed banquet events.

Use electric cooking equipment wherever possible for emergency and staff kitchens such as induction cooktops, electric hot plates, electric rice cookers and kettles, the advisory stated.
