Even though none of the arrested in connection with the murder of Deepark Rao at Katipalla in Mangaluru taluk has any links with Popular Front of India and its political arm Social Democratic Party of India, the Karnataka state unit of Bharatiya Janata Party has held the two outfits responsible for the murder.

Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, BJP state general secretary C T Ravi said 24 “Hindu activists” had been killed in the state in the last four years including Deepak Rao, who was murdered near on Wednesday.

He demanded the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for "failing" to protect the lives of Hindu activists. He also demanded that the probe into the murder of Deepak Rao should be handed over to the National Investigating Agency.

"These killings prove there is no safety and security to the common man. This is also an indication of the collapse of law and order. What government is in existence in the state? Civilian government or Taliban government?" he questioned.

Ravi charged that the SDPI and PFI were directly involved in the murders and the organisations had the support of the state government. "The Congress government has withdrawn 175 cases that were filed against members of the organisation. After this, the killing of Hindu activists has been going on unabated," Ravi said.

The BJP leader said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had never shown the political will to crush "terror elements" and "anti-social" elements in the state. He wanted to know why the Congress government was hesitant to send a report to the Centre about banning SDPI and PFI.

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.
