Addressing a protest demonstration organised by Popular Front of India and other progressive organisations to protest what they called State Government's suppressive policy against Muslim organisations, in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner here on Friday evening, he said the Karnataka Government is full of thieves who are systematically looting the wealth of our state.
The demonstration comes in the backdrop of controversial statements made by the Home Minister R Ashok and Primary and Higher Education Minister Vishweshara Hegde Kageri over banning KFD and introducing Bhagavad Gita in Schools.
G Rajashekar, President of Komu Sauharda Vedike, Udupi district unit, said that Government's move to ban KFD based on the Hunsoor kidnap and murder case, reflects the prejudice of the ruling party of the state against the organisation. He said that until the court proves that the accused are guilty nobody has any right to judge.
He opined that the actions of BJP led Government reveal its internal unrest and its fear about the future.
Mohammed Riyaz, PFI leader, challenged the Government to ban the organization. “This is cheap politics played by the government which is sure to lose the next elections. Resorting to cheap tricks to please its vote bank is condemnable,” He said.
Pattabhirama Somayaji, communal harmony activist, questioned that if government allowed the organisation such as RSS which was involved in the Killing of Mahatma Gandhi to be active, how could it ban an organisation based on mere an accusation. He also criticised the Chief Minister's family trip to Mauritius, when his government was in jeopardy.
The agitators also raised voice against the corruption of the state government. A memorandum, addressed to the Governor of Karnataka H R Bhardwaj, was also handed over to Deputy Commissioner on the occasion.
