Mangaluru, Mar 1: A day after BJP leader and Uttara Kannada MP Anant Kumar Hegde called upon people to wipe out Islam from the world, Health and Family Welfare Minister UT Khader met Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara and urged him to take stringent action against the former.
Addressing a press meet in Sirsi on Sunday Mr Hegde had stated that the religion of Islam should be wiped out and claimed that terrorism could not be uprooted as long as Islam existed in this world.
Mr Khader pointed out that even though Mr Hegde made the communally provocative remarks only with the intention of getting publicity, such statement could trigger unrest in the society. Police must file suo moto case against Mr Hegde and arrest him,' he said.
Complaint
Meanwhile, Luqman Bantwal, a Congress leader, on behalf of Dakshina Kannada unit of Youth Congress has filed a complaint with Bantwal Town Police Station against Mr Hegde for his attempt to disrupt peace in the society through provocative remarks.
Stating that the sentiments of Muslims have been badly hurt by the BJP leader's remark, Mr Luqman urged the police to book Mr Hegde under sections 153 A, 295 A and 502 (2) of Indian Penal Code.
Condemned
Meanwhile, several Muslim organisations and leaders have vociferously condemned the shocking statement of Mr Hegde and urged the police to nab him for insulting Indian constitution.
Jama'ath-e-Islami Hind, Sunni Students' Federation, Popular Front of India among other Muslim organisations in separate media releases have termed the statement of Mr Hegde as a war against Indian constitution.
They urged that police should act impartially and take necessary action against those who provoke people and attempt to disrupt social and communal harmony.
Thwaka Ahmed Musliyar, Khazi of Dakshina Kannada, meanwhile, urged the Karnataka government to take necessary action against Mr Hegde and urged the Muslims not to lose patience.

Welcome back Mohammed Mangalore.
Every person have their own choice of selecting the method of protest. I have selected writing on forums as I cannot do what you wanted, as I am aged enough. You being a hench man of Masood, may remember recently Poojary indirectly taunted Masood, for being MLC at his helm, failures for congress party recent Zilla and Taluk Panchayats. I bet you Masood cannot get 100 votes if he contest for next MLA election. And even MLC.
Finally I don't need teachings from you as you are immaterial to me.
Dear UTK saab, Kindly Kindly Kindly dont urge... or wait for POLICE to file SUO MOTO....
Kindly ORDER for the ACTION on him thru your government and appeal HEGDE's arrest notice to Loksabha speaker.. then we can believe you.
many urges from you people show up to DK public llike PRABHAKAR BHAT ARREST bu noting happened till the moment...
Ibrahim Hussain Udupi, It is just for you to request muslims to keep quiet as you being in Udupi are scared of the repurcation you will go through if you stand up against these people. Come on gather some guts and come out openly to condemn this speech. It is easy for you give lectures. Be a strong muslim or are you the one who knows only to back stab and talk nonsense about your own community people.
CONGRESS HAVE NO GUTS TO TAKE ACTION, SEE YOU ALL, ITS 100% SURE.. CONGRESS IS DEPENDENT 90% MUSLIMS VOTES, BUT THEY DONT WANT MUSLIMS DEVELOPMENT AND HAPPINESS, THEY ARE USING ONLY VOTE BANK.
as per great tradition of modi govt he should be soon rewarded with some ministry..ache Din.. here it is !
Mister M-ad P-erson, wouldnt have even tried reading his holy book Bhagwat Geetha,else he wouldnt have spoken false/ill about other religions. I dont want to mention anything more, its a waste of my time.
This is Kaat Bunta.
He is not representing all Hindus, nor this is the message of any Hindu.
The more they provocate, the more ISLAM grows.
The big protest and reaction started in US afer 9/11, what happened.
Happened is more Americans specially women embraced ISLAM.
The same will happen in India. Just Watch, you can not fool educated people.
BROTHER RAHUL,
HOW YOU WILL FEEL IF I SAY THERE WILL BE NO PEACE IN WORLD IF WE DID NOT ERADICATE THE RELIGION WHICH YOU BELONGS TO... DO YOU STILL SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG IN IT BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE FROM YOUR RELIGION INVOLVED IN MURDER RAPE AND TERROR ATTACKS
I guess he forgot he is talking about world's second largest religion! Might he needs some knowledge about Islam. Let him mock on the religion, his creator will give him a knock out too..
Why all the from same....... makes this type of comments?
BJP/RSS have some active pracharaks throughout India give hate speeches against Islam and Muslims. Even Narendra Modi himself RSS pracharak, made some comments on muslim regarding reservations during the Bihar Election rally. Yesterday in Agra, Mr. Kataria, BJP MP made similar provocations SPEECH in UP. This is a normal practice of RSS/BJP camp. When it comes protests, both slip away from their utterances and say that is their personal views and nothing to do with party and RSS.
Ananth Kumar is non performing MP of UKannada district, there is an unhappiness from the voters even BJP sympathizers and his utterances against Islam and Muslims nothing but a show. However, Muslims should not provoked from his statements and maintain peace and harmony. We will have to see the action from the State Government, specifically home minister Dr. Parameshwar and CM Sidda Ramayya.
YES MR.RAHUL,
U R RIGHT, SEE THE MALEGAO,OTHER BLASTS LIKE MECCA MASJID, ALL MUSLIMS ARE ARRESTED.. but.. I MEAN SADHVI SINGH, PUROHIT....SHAME ON YOU...
Good to see that minister is taking action against this ignorant...
defaming other relegious s totally wrong, he must be punished,
Let's wait & see what action will our Congress govt. takes, i'm sure it won't take..., unless we change our system by adding/ bringing AAP or SDPI to political track (bcoz people are tired of watching old two parties blame-games)
It is time for Congress Government to take action. If you want to keep your vote bank alive, then the Government must take action against this Naalayak, Hatred Communal MP.
just for publicity, media simply giving publicity to them, this kind of statement should be ignored.
its totally unfair to tell to wipe out islam from the world first he have to wipe out his mind and heart.
Now Modi will provide Z+ Security to this Poor Guy Who is Struggling for FAME.Like Subramanya Swami.
He has challenged his own CREATOR.After all he is a CREATURE.
Will suffer badly life after DEATH (In sha allah)
Only Complaint, nothing to do this congress government. Now Congress is power in state, but they are not intrested to take action.. only giving statement for his vote bank politics. They have no guts.
