Gadag, Jan 3: Condemning the stand taken by Goa state Congress over the Mahadayi river water sharing dispute, BJP workers called for a bundh in Nargund, Gadag district, on Wednesday.

The activists staged a protest by blocking the highway and burning tires. They forced shops to shut down.

Due to the roadblock, free flow of traffic on Hubballi-Vijayapura national highway was totally disrupted.

Tight police security has been delpoyed in Nargund town. Three DySPs, 10 CPIs, 14 PSIs, 29 ASIs, four KSRP platoons, five DAR platoons, 120 police staff and 100 Homeguards are on vigil.

When the BJP workers tried to light up tires, the police tried to stop them. At this point there was an argument between the police and the protesters. But the latter went ahead and burnt tires and shouted slogans against the Congress, anyway.

"The BJP is trying to settle the Mahadayi water dispute. Meanwhile the Congress is acting against the settlement. The Nargund bundh has been called to protest this issue," said BJP Nargund mandal president Mallappa Meti.

As part of the bundh a protest march will be taken out in the main streets of the town to end at Raitha Veeragallu, he added.

What is stopping Sidda from going and meeting Parrikar? Wasn't it a congress resolution in Goa barring sharing of water with Karnataka? Who engineered the art of divide and rule, a legacy left over by the British? It was first Hindus vs Muslims and now division within Hindus for electoral gains? Wasn't Gujarat election a testimony of such a division?

BJP is only interested in spoiling the peace and creating law and order issue. They are doing it just to reap electoral benefit. People of Karnataka will give them thrashing in the coming Assembly election.

LOOKS wrong rumors been spread.... KARNATAKA CURRENT LEADERS SHIP ARE CLEAR what s needed for the PEOPLE OF NAMMA KARNATAKA... and will sure do... but looks game plan and WE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DISTURB THE PEACE OF NAMMA NADU KARNATAKA

Shameless BJP. Why is Parrikar not writing to Tribunal ?? BJP is a party of double face with forked tongue. BJP is simply politicizing Mahadayi issue, they do not have Any Commitment towards Karnataka or Resolution of Issue. Shameless....

one day snake must come out from rat hole...that day we will wait

Dear DC Dr. Harsha, we want to know if you will take strict action on these anti nationals / rowdis / day robbers / terrorists who ransacked auto + beaten the auto driwer and stolen Rs. 10,000 from him though he was legally transporting the meat. They same terrorists are involved in transporting live animals to beef export houses in Gujrat owned by Brahmins / Jains. Will you be loyal to your duty and promise. We will see how you will handle the issue failing which you will lose our respect and we will consider you as a dramabaz and phenku. You should follow the law and treat everyone equally. There should not be any pity on goondas/ terrorists belonging to sangh parivar. The terrorists who thrashed the auto driver and damaged the auto and burnt the meat by pouring kerosene are not human beings and should be treated as anti nationals + terrorists. We hope you will discharge your duty as per the oath taken by you while accepting your post.
