Mangaluru, Nov 2: A police constable attached to Belthangady police station in Dakshina Kannada district, has been suspended after he exhibited his inclination towards Sangh Parwar through a Facebbok post.

The man in-khaki who openly showed his saffron colour is Raj Shivappa. A resident of Bagalkot, Shivappa joined Karnataka State Police as a constable six years ago and was posted to the Dakshina Kannada district police unit. He has worked at the Belthangady police station for the past five years.

He was suspended under the Karnataka Police Disciplinary Act after a local resident, Abhinandan, lodged a complaint against him. Disciplinary proceedings were initiated against him. Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy said that a departmental inquiry was ordered against Shivappa.

Policemen are expected to be apolitical and impartial. In a recent Facebook post, he had questioned the chief minister Siddaramaiah's secular credentials.

He had also posted a set of pictures showing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to Dharmasthala and Siddaramaiah having a fish meal prior to his visit to Dharmasthala on October 22.

The post also hails Modi, who according to Shivappa, followed Hindu traditions in visiting the presiding deity at Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala after observing a fast and offering prayers.
