sangh parivar is trying sabotage karnataka by voilence, loot, disturbance, distruction etc. They are agitating for no reason. Their leaders are desparate on the publicity of congress Govt and have hired unemployed goons to create trouble. Police should arrest bjp MLS from Sirsi for being responsible for the voilence which resulted in loss of property worth crores of rupees and Court should order bjp to pay for it. Leavy fine on this hate monger bjp mla who is useful for nothing.
