Joshi calls Siddaramaiah a ‘Mullah’, slams IGP who averted riots in coastal Karnataka

In his attempt to portray the ruling Congress government of Karnataka as anti-Hindu, senior BJP leader and Dharwad Pralhad Joshi has called chief minister Siddaramaiah a ‘Mullah’. He also slammed Inspector General of Police (western range) Hemant Nimbalkar, who foiled several attempts of communal forces to create riots in coastal Karnataka.

Speaking at a protest meeting organised by Hindu Hitarakshana Samiti in Hubballi, he said the 'Mulla Siddaramaiah' government was engaged in acts of Muslim appeasement and was torturing patriots and protecting anti-nationals.

Mr Joshi, who served as the state president of BJP in the past, also dragged Pakistan to Karnataka. He Joshi said that there were vested interests that want to convert India into Pakistan and organisations such as the RSS, VHP and ABVP were the main hurdles for them. "We know how to chop the tongues of those who say Pakistan zindabad," he said, adding the word 'legally'.

He alleged that anti-nationals and terrorists were getting protection from Siddaramaiah and the State was on the way to becoming another West Bengal and Kerala, where Hindus had no protection.

Mr Joshi said that the Hindus were in danger and the killings of Hindus in Karnataka should be a wake-up call to all to come out and protest. He accused Mr Siddaramaiah of protecting activists of the Popular Front of India and the Karnataka Forum for Dignity (KFD). “After coming to power, the Siddaramaiah-led government has withdrawn cases against 1,700 PFI and KFD activists,” he claimed.

He described IGP Hemant Nimbalkar as a 'chamcha' of Siddaramaiah, since cases were booked under Section 307 of the IPC against many Hindutva activists including BJP workers in Sirsi, Uttara Kannada district for trying to create communal riots.
