Hubballi, Dec 25: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has criticised Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde’s statement against secularism and values of Indian constitution.
Responding to the queries of media persons here on Monday CM said described Hegde as a 'Manuvadi' who lacked respect for the Constitution. "He does not know the political and parliamentary language," Siddaramaiah said.
"Hegde is uncultured. He doesn't know parliamentary or politically-correct language. He is unaware of the country's social systems, and has no respect for the Constitution," said Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
"He (Hegde) speaks anti-secular language. It is impossible to turn a secular country like India into a Hindu Rashtra," Siddaramaiah said.
"In the Constitution, we have said that a secular country will be built. But Hegde speaks against secularists and about changing the Constitution. People of this country have accepted the Constitution, and it cannot be changed as per the wish of casteist persons. People of all religions are Indians and 'Hindu Rashtra' cannot be built, just by glorifying one religion,” he said.

this isnt about reservation you moron, its about hatred, pure evil and dividing people on communal lines.
Its a classic irony....
If dalits and OBCs can speak for reservation, why should the upper castes who are victims of reservation not speak against it. This is India. Right to freedom of expression is everyone's fundamental right, not just of dalits
Siddu, nin culture yenappa? Bereavarige heluva munna, dayavittu ninna mukha swalpa kannadi li nodabeku.
