Hindus are not safe in Karnataka, claims BJP

March 22, 2016

Bengaluru, Mar 22: Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council K S Eshwarappa said on Monday that Hindus in the State were living under threat, as “anti-national and anti-social” elements operated without fear of law.

bjpDemanding the chair to allow a discussion on the murder of BJP worker Kyathamarenahalli Raju in Mysuru recently, Eshwarappa said, “There is no safety for Hindus in the State. Assailants do not fear the law. There is an atmosphere of fear in the State following the incident. The culprits should be apprehended immediately,” he said.

The BJP members including Eshwarappa, G Madhusudhan, C H Vijayshankar, Ashwathnarayana, Ramachandra Gowda and B J Puttaswamy also demanded that the government should initiate a judicial inquiry into Raju's death. They also sought Home Minister G Parameshwara to increase the compensation to the kin of Raju from Rs 5 lakh to Rs 25 lakh.

They said that Home department's delay in arresting the actual culprits in the incident had led to suspicion that the attackers were being protected. “There is enough evidence which can be corroborated from the CCTV footage from the bank right next to the tea stall where Raju was attacked. However, the department has made no attempts in this direction,” said Eshwarappa.

He demanded that the police be given a free hand to investigate into the case. He, however, expressed doubts if it would happen. “Last year when my life was under threat, the government promised protection. But till date I am travelling across the State with just a pilot vehicle. When the Opposition leader himself is not given protection, I wonder whether the department will protect upright officers in the force.”

Ashwathnarayana said that like the red corridor' a corridor of anti-national activities' had emerged, with such elements operating in Mysuru, Kodagu, Kasargod, Mangaluru and Bhatkal.

A large number of such elements - activists of Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Front - were continuing to enter the State from Kerala unleashing attacks on Hindu activists, he said.

Ibrahim,
Nepal has changed their status now, its not a HINDU country... cos they came to know the reality of Idol worship which is a sin and mentioned in VEDAS that those who worship sambhuti will fall in DARKNESS... They are coming out of DARKNESS and I request our hindu brothers to learn about IDOL worship in VEDAS and also other religious scriptures... Please come out of DARKNESS. U will understand how many people are making money out of this false god concept.

OK

U guys are involved in instigating the public to violence, now U want to increase the compensation for the victim from our TAX money... if your agenda (which will never succeed) to kill the innocent and the oppressed by LIES and deception, then keep some funds for those who are dying for your cause for nothing... their family is suffering from your LIes and deception.

A bus agent/conductor become a MLA/MLC made huge properties and money. Certainly he is afraid of what will happen to him tomorrow. He has a case of money laundering with ED and Lokayukta. If himself not secured in Karnataka, better to emigrate to Nepal, a lone Hindu country in the world.

New Delhi, Nov 25: According to multiple media reports, at least 11 people were killed and around 150 injured in the large scale violence unleashed by the Sangh Parivar activists to suppress anti-CAA agitation in the capital of India.

Violence was reported from Jaffrabad, Chandbagh, Maujpur, Bhajanpura, Gokulpuri, Khajuri Khas, Kardampuri, Dayalpur and Hauz Rani and prohibitory orders were clamped in several areas of North East Delhi. 

The MHA said the situation was under control and paramilitary forces have been deployed in large numbers in trouble spots. The Gokulpuri tire market was set on fire. The violence has also led to the destruction of several crores worth of property. 

As tension smouldered in the national capital's northeast and the sun set over another restive day, violence cut a swathe through several localities, including Chand Bagh and Bhajanpura, with stones and other missiles hurled and shops set ablaze.

Rioters damaged two fire tenders in Gokulpuri and crowds raising incendiary slogans set on fire fruit carts, rickshaws and anything that came in their way in the epicentre of the trouble Maujpur and other places.

With US President Donald Trump also in the city, Delhi Police ramped up security. It fired teargas shells to disperse the rioters -- armed with stones, rods and even swords and many wearing helmets to protect themselves -- and was assisted by paramilitary personnel.

Streets were littered with mangled remains of vehicles, bricks and burnt tyres, mute testimony to the violence and bloodshed that took on a communal taint on Monday and injured about 180 people, including 48 police personnel.

According to GTB Hospital Medical Superintendent Sunil Kumar, six people were declared brought dead on Tuesday, taking the death toll in 11. At least 35 injured people were also taken to the hospital today.

"Fifty per cent of those injured have sustained bullet injuries," Kumar added.

As the violence continued unabated, police officials said the situation was under control and flag marches were conducted in Bhajanpura, Khajuri Khas and other places.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah convened a meeting with Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi Police chief Amulya Patnaik and others to address the situation.

The meeting resolved that workers of political parties should join hands to restore peace and peace committees should be reactivated in all localities.

In scenes not seen in the national capital for decades, frenzied groups thrashed people on the road and vandalised vehicles.

The media also came under attack.

Akshay, a journalist with JK 24X7 News, received a bullet injury and was in a serious condition in hospital, and two reporters from NDTV were beaten and punched by rioters. Many other journalists were heckled and told to go back.

Schools were shut and fearful residents stayed indoors as restless crowds roamed the streets, seemingly unmindful of prohibitory orders restricting the assembly of more than four people imposed on Monday.

"There is hardly any police presence in the area. Rioters are running around threatening people, vandalising shops. Families need to be evacuated. We are unsafe in our own homes," said a resident of Maujpur, requesting anonymity.

Another added that this is the first time in 35 years -- possibly since the 1984 anti-Sikh riots -- that he has seen a situation such as this. "The area had always remained peaceful," he told PTI.

Trouble continued through the day.

Around 5 pm in Chand Bagh, for instance, security personnel were pelted with stones. They chased the mob, only to be attacked afresh with some people also armed with petrol bombs.

A few residents in Yamuna Vihar and Jaffrabad told PTI they had seen rioters with swords in their hands.

The 11 killed include Delhi Police head constable Ratan Lal. While Lal died of gunshot wounds, it is still not yet clear what killed the others or who they all were.

Among those killed was Vinod Kumar, a resident of Ghonda who was brought dead to the hospital and whose body is at the morgue of the Jag Parvesh Hospital.

Also killed was Mohammad Furkan from Kardampuri, near Jafrabad, who got married in 2014 and has two children. His brother, Mohammed Imran, overcome with grief, said they were both in the handicrafts business.

"He had gone to get some food for his children. Someone told me he had been shot. I couldn't believe it as I had met him barely an hour earlier. I kept calling him... I then rushed to GTB Hospital where I was told that he is dead," he told reporters, sobbing inconsolably outside the hospital.

Imran blamed BJP leader Kapil Mishra's tweet, giving Delhi Police an ultimatum to clear the streets of protesters and saying people would be quiet only until Trump is in India.

"Before that everything was peaceful," he said.

One person seen brandishing a gun before police on Monday was identified as Shah Rukh and been arrested yet. Police said 11 FIRs have been filed.

Kejriwal, who held a meeting with senior officials and MLAs of all parties to discuss the situation, asked people to refrain from violence and said all issues can be dealt with through dialogue.

"Stop this madness," he said after visiting the injured in GTB Hospital.

"I have met the people who were injured, also met some people who sustained bullet injuries. The biggest concern is to stop the violence. I appeal to everyone to stop the violence," he said.

Five stations on the Delhi Metro's Pink Line were closed for the second consecutive day on Tuesday in the wake of the trouble.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Amit Sharma underwent an operation on Monday night for the head injury sustained during the clashes.
