Cheddi leaders mind washed many BD, VHP and their sister organisation.
The people come to know the reality of their deception.
I think every town and village should stand with TRUTH and Kick the Trouble monger outside.
punish Bajaranga Dala Activites, Best is Hang like gulf country
Send him to Siachin with his bosses.
should be hanged ,that type of basterd.
please send him to kashmir border instead of sending other taluks.
I dont think this is the right decision to send him to other district... he will start his notorious activities in other districts & disturb peace & harmony... Our police department should think about this issue & send him to that area where he will not find water & food to eat... So that he will realize the value of life....
Best decision is to hang him, so that other notorious dogs will learn something before doing any harm to public...
Something coming up good action from New Commissioner of Police in DK. Police department must find out criminals and communalists irrespective of cast or creed, have to debarred entering the taluks where they are active.
The same action to be taken in Udupi District also by Police authorities.
