As a MP his duty is to take care of the citizen I/O that he still is standing with his old low grade showing rowdism. No need to wait for any judicial advise. Dept must book him non bailable case. Being a MP and behaving like a Desh Drohi he has no right to enter to our respectful parliament house.
This is the right time all peace loving Mangaloreans stand together and demand his resignation n send him behind bar at least for 5years period.
Then u see no pumpwell satyajith or puranik will open their mouth with communal speech.
Jai Hind!
