Cogratulations to UDF + LDF for throwing out sangh parivar member.   There sghould not be a single sangh parivar candidate in our God's own land.  We are one regardless of our religions.  These chaddis are trying to sow hatred in us.  Let us unite and fight these illogic chaddis and make our state free from chaddis.   Same thing should happen in other states also and hope it will be soon.
