Chop off hands that touch Hindu girls: Ananth Kumar Hegde tells Hindutva outfits

Somwarpet, Jan 27: Union Minister Ananth Kumar Hegde, who is known for controversial statements, yet again sparked a row on Sunday after he explained how to keep “Hindu girls safe.” Hegde said that the hands which “touch” Hindu girls, should be “chopped off” and “cease to exist.”

The BJP leader was speaking at the inauguration of a temple at Kallukore of Madapura in communally sensitive Somwarpet taluk. The temple was damaged during the recent natural calamity.

In a contentious statement, Hegde said, “There should be a fundamental shift in our thinking. We should keenly observe what's happening around us. Regardless of caste and religion, a hand that touches a Hindu girl should not exist. History is written like that.”

Meanwhile, during his speech on Sunday, Hegde also claimed that the Taj Mahal in Agra was not built by Muslims and that it was a "Shiv mandir called Tejo Mahalaya." He said, "Taj Mahal was not built by Muslims. It's definitely not built by Muslims, the history speaks for it. Shah Jahan in his autobiography has said he bought this palace from King Jayasimha. It's a Shiv mandir built by King Paramatheertha, Tejo Mahalaya. Tejo Mahalaya became Taj Mahal. If we keep sleeping, most of our houses also will be named manzil. In future, Lord Ram will be called jahanpana and Sita will become bibi."

On the other hand, Karnataka Congress president Dinesh Gundu Rao slammed Hegde for his controversial remarks, calling them “deplorable.” Gundu Rao tweeted, “Wht are ur achievements after becoming a Union Minister or as MP? Wht are ur contributions for Karnataka's development? All I can say for sure, it's deplorable tht such people have become ministers & have managed to get elected as MP's.(sic)”

In the past as well, Hegde has waded into controversies after making inappropriate statements on sensitive issues. Earlier this month, the Union Minister had claimed that the handling of the Sabarimala issue by the Kerala government was the "daylight rape" of Hindus.

Last year, Hegde's statement had lowered the political discourse in Karnataka after he compared members of the Opposition parties to animals such as "crows, monkeys, foxes, and donkeys", slamming them for "coming together" to take on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming elections.

In 2017, he had generated a sparked off a massive debate after criticising the word "secular" and claiming that the BJP government would "amend the Constitution" to remove the word from the Constitution's Preamble. “Seculars do not know what their blood is. Yes Constitution has given that right to say 'we are secular' but Constitution has been amended many times, we will also amend it. We have come to power for that,” Hegde had said.

New Delhi, Mar 3: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra, who instigated violence in northeast Delhi by provoking mobs, has now been provided with 24x7 security. After he claimed threat to his life, he has been provided with “Y” category security — which entitles him to six security personnel round-the-clock to guard him in and outside the city.

He had fought the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections by giving inflammatory remarks around the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act in Shaheen Bagh, and lost to Aam Aadmi Party candidate. But he continued to issue provocative remarks.

While there is clear evidence of his scandalous statements just a day before the violence was unleashed on Muslims in Delhi last week where around 50 people were killed, no action has been taken against him so far. Instead, he is being treated as a hero in his party.

As per sources, Mishra complained that he got life threats over the past week in wake of the violence and based on his request, the Delhi Police has provided the security cover.

Mishra had taken to social media platform Twitter and alleged that he was receiving threats via WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, from Indian and foreign accounts.

“I am constantly being threatened with murder on the phone, on WhatsApp, on email. Hundreds of threats are being given continuously from the country and abroad. I don’t fear this hate campaign against me,” he had said on Twitter on March 1.

Mishra had on February 23 made an incendiary speech, following which North-East Delhi witnessed anti-Muslim violence.

The Supreme Court of India on Monday said it will on Wednesday (March 4) hear a plea that sought immediate FIRs against Kapil Mishra, Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur and other leaders for their recent hate speech, which allegedly triggered the violence in Delhi. The plea was filed by Delhi violence survivors.

The apex court bench, comprising Chief Justice SA Bobde, listed the matter for hearing after senior advocate Colin Gonsalves, who is appearing on behalf of the survivors told the SC that the Delhi High Court had last week adjourned the matter for six weeks even as “people are dying every day”.
