“Why should Modi react if dog dies in Karnataka?”
Pramod Muthalik’s controversial statement on Gauri lankesh killing
Bengaluru: Hitting out at people who have accused PM Modi of keeping silent on the murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh, Sri Ram Sene chief Pramod Muthalik questioned on Sunday, "why should the prime minister react if some dog dies in Karnataka?"
Speaking at a public meeting in Bengaluru, Muthalik said "two murders happened in Karnataka and two happened in Maharashtra during the Congress regime. No one is uttering a word over Congress government's failure. Instead, they are asking why PM Modi is silent and not commenting on Gauri Lankesh's death. Why should PM react if some dog dies in Karnataka?"
Muthalik passed this comment three days after Parashuram Waghmare, the last of six suspects in the Gauri Lankesh killing, was arrested by the special investigating team (SIT).
After a photograph surfaced on social media of the Sri Ram Sene chief with the murder accused, Muthalik admitted to knowing him. Later, he backtracked, saying, "There is no connection between Sri Ram Sene and Waghmare. He is neither our member nor our worker...This I say very clearly."
