Chikkamagaluru, Jul 25: The Supreme Court has issued notice to Praveen Khandya, a local leader of Vishva Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal leader, on a plea by the Karnataka government against the Karnataka High Court’s order granting him anticipatory bail in an abduction case which had resulted in the death of a policeman in 2016.khandya

Khandya was said to be the mastermind of the incident relating to the abduction of Tejas Gowda, a businessman. The case had snowballed into a major controversy after deputy superintendent of police Kallappa Handibag committed suicide in Chikkamagaluru. He was accused of being a part of the whole conspiracy and was paid Rs 10 lakh.

On a petition filed by the Karnataka government, represented by advocate V N Raghupathy, a bench of Justices Abhay Manohar Sapre and Prafulla C Pant issued notice to Khandya, seeking his reply in the matter.

The state government challenged the high court's order of December 16, last year, contending Khandya was a habitual offender and faced many criminal trials.

The high court had allowed him anticipatory bail after he contended that he was a social activist fighting for cow protection and anti-conversion campaign and the case was foisted upon him after he unearthed the “illegality” committed by the Chikkamagaluru rural police in the 2016 case.

The police had named 14 people in the charge sheet and Khandya was named accused number four.

In January this year, Khandya was arrested by the police after it slapped provisions of the Goonda Act against him for his alleged involvement in about 33 criminal cases. However, he was again released on bail.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Congress is confused on the Ram Mandir issue and in dilemma to take a firm stand fearing loss of Muslim or Hindu votes, according to BJP leader and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

"Congress opposed BJP's stand on constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodya, it called Lord Ram fictional and even decided to break the Ramsetu. Now, Congressmen are speaking the other way. Congress cannot think beyond vote bank politics which is in its DNA itself. Congressmen think that they are born to be in power," he said while speaking to media persons. 

He said that BJP is all for constructing a grand Ram Mandir peacefully and legally, due to its conviction and not for politics. Same was the case with the revocation of Article 370 for Jammu & Kashmir. Anti-national activities have comparatively come down now. 

Some people do not want everything going smoothly in the country, and Congress and Asaduddin Owaisi are among them, Joshi opined, adding that the Congress is merely frustrated.
