Kalaburgi, Nov 3: Sri Ram Sena chief Pramod Muthalik was detained in Kalaburagi as a preventive measure on Thursday after he participated in a protest condemning the arrest of Siddalinga Swami, honorary president of the Sri Ram Sena and head of Karuneshwar Mutt at Andola in Jewargi taluk in the district. Siddalinga Swami, was recently arrested for thrashing a Muslim man.

Senior police officials suddenly rushed into the Kannada Bhavan and detained Mr. Muthalik when he was trying to organise a meeting with the chiefs of different mutts ahead of his visit to Jewargi taluk after a communal violence rocked the town last week.

However, Mr. Muthalik refused to go with the police and said that there were no pending cases against him. “It is a political conspiracy against me by the Congress leaders and the district administration,” he said. Police sources said that Mr. Muthalik, detained in a preventive move to stop him from fomenting further trouble in the district, was released later.

Earlier, members of the sena took out a rally from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Chowk to the Deputy Commissioner’s office and submitted a memorandum demanding the release of Siddalinga Swami.

Mr. Muthalik, addressing the protesters, said that the Congress government was supporting the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) and other organisations to gain minority votes. He criticised the State government for not giving a fitting answer to the organisations supporting terrorists.

Bengaluru, Jul 28: Several state Congress leaders, including its President D K Shivakumar, among others, were detained by police as they tried to march towards Raj Bhavan here against the alleged attempts by BJP to topple the party's government in Rajasthan.

Shivakumar, along with Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah, state Congress Working President Eshwar Khandre, Salim Ahmed among others were stopped by the police midway as they marched from KPCC office towards Raj Bhavan.

Congress leaders then staged a dharna at the place where they were stopped. Addressing the gathering, Shivakumar accused the BJP of trying to "murder" democracy by destabilizing and removing elected governments.

"We wanted to protest against it and submit a memorandum to the President through the Governor," but the Karnataka government by using police was not letting them proceed towards Raj Bhavan, he said. "Despite our being a peaceful protest, the police stopped us," he said.

Siddaramaiah, echoing similar views, said peaceful protests against injustice was the right of every citizen. Alleging that the BJP was attempting to destabilise and remove the elected government in Rajasthan as it did in Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh, he said the Governor's office there (Rajasthan) was being 'misused'.

The Governor was working like an agent of the central government, he charged. He said, despite repeated appeals by the Rajasthan cabinet, the Governor there had not convened the assembly session, for the floor test to take place and for Congress to prove its majority. Police subsequently detained Shivakumar and some other Congress leaders and took them to a nearby police station.

They were later released. Meanwhile, as the Congress' protest amid Covid19 pandemic did not follow social distancing norms, Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar hit out at that party's leaders. In a tweet Sudhakar said, for Congress leaders getting publicity was more important than social concerns.
