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!

Bengaluru, May 5: The movement of migrant labourers from Karnataka to other states has stopped temporarily, as few North Indian states are yet to give consent.

Revenue Minister R Ashok said that the state government will convince labourers to stay back and ensure free food supply at their camps. "Even if we allow them to travel, they will be quarantined for 14 days as soon as they reach their native states.

The labourers don't know about this and some states have not yet given permission for their return," Revenue Minister R Ashok said.

According to sources in CMO, the decision to convince the workers to stay back came after several major projects - both government and private - were affected by the mass migration of labourers to their native districts and states.

Ashok, along with S Suresh Kumar, Primary and Secondary Education minister and head of the group of ministers focusing on migrant workers, also visited labourers who had gathered demanding that they be allowed to return.

Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa will chair a meeting tomorrow and instruct builders under CREDAI to pay pending wages of labourers, provide food supply and ensure their safety, Ashok said, adding that all construction work by BBMP will also be taken up to help the labourers.
