Moodigere: A provocative and at the same time a controversial statement has come from the Taluk Bajrangdal Convenor Avinash. "If Hindu outfits take up machetes then they are capable of eliminating the Muslims here in no time," Avinash said while addressing the VHP and Bajrangdal protestors who staged a Rasta Roko at the Lions Circle here condemning Deepak Rao murder at Katipalla near Mangaluru.
M K Pranesh, MLC who also addressed the protestors alleged that the PFI activists were resorting to killings of Hindu activists and demanded a ban on PFI and SDPI. "The Chief Minister who was touring the state was sowing the seeds of hatred," he further alleged and dubbed the CM as communal.
Former MLA M P Kumaraswamy accused the state government of not releasing even a penny for the development of Moodigere constituency. It is shameful on the part of the CM to inaugurate the projects for which funds were released during the previous BJP rule, he added.
The activists later submitted a memorandum to the Tahsildar.
Taluk Panchayat President K C Ratna, Vice President Savitha Umesh and many others participated in the protest.
