MLA Sunil Kumar booked for declaring ‘electoral battle between Allah and Rama’

Mangaluru, Jan 23: The Bharatiya Janata Party’s campaign against incumbent Congress government in Karnataka took an extremely ugly turn when a party leader declared in a public speech that the looming Assembly polls will be a direct battle between Allah and Rama in Bantwal constituency of Dakshina Kannada district.

The Bantwal town police booked a case against Karkala MLA V Sunil Kumar under Sections 153(A) and 505(2) of the IPC for his vicious and provocative speech wherein he obliquely warned the Hindu community that the victory of six-time MLA B Ramanatha Rai in next polls will be a victory of Allah and defeat of Rama.

The case was registered on Tuesday based on a complaint lodged by Bantwal Youth Congress president Prashant Kulal, who accused Sunil Kumar of trying to divide society in the name of religion and disrupt harmony.

Addressing the saffron party’s rally in Kalladka town of Bantwal on Monday, Sunil Kumar, came down heavily on Rai for stating in a Muslim programme that he won from Bantwal constituency six times by the grace of Allah.

"This is a question dignity of Hindus… The upcoming election is not a battle between (BJP candidate) Rajesh Naik and Ramanath Rai. This is not a clash between BJP and Congress. This is an electoral battle between Allah and Rama. Now you have to decide whether you want to make Allah victorious once again in your constituency or to the one who loves Rama,” he said.

Replying to Sunil Kumar’s controversial statement, Rai, who is also the district in-charge minister of Dakshina Kannada, said that he belongs to people of all religions and not to any particular caste or community.

“There is no clash between Allah and Rama. For me both are same. Both Islam and Hinduism ask their followers to become good human beings. Using gods and religions for poll campaign is an extremely ugly practice. Being an elected representative Sunik Kumar shouldn’t have stooped to such a low level,” Rai said.

People from his constituency shall learn from such speech of their MLA. In Addition Mr. Rahim Uchil has to understand the agenda of so called political party who have always defended for the controversy of so called political party. Now the election not between Allah and Rama it is between Mr. Rahim Uchil and Mr. Sunil Kumar. Jai Ho.

In last election he had declared that it will be a clash between Modi and Jihadi. Now he knows that no people will vote for Modi.  So started new slogan. What a shameless and uncultured people these politicians are!!!

Bengaluru, Apr 12: The Karnataka government is studying in-depth the consequences of the possible relaxation of lockdown norms after April 14 and plans to come out with a clear roadmap in a day or two, a key Minister said on Sunday.

Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar, who is in charge of all matters related to COVID-19, told PTI that the pros and cons of any decision that the Government intends to take is being looked at in detail.

"We are trying to understand how the situation would be of any action that we intend to take. We need to foresee the repercussions or results of our action. That we have to keep it in mind and make a decision. After-effects of the decisions we intend to take, that is more important, he said. You will have clarity (on the possible relaxation of lockdown norms) in a day or two. For everything (government decisions) we will give the reasoning for what action we would like to take; with the reasoning, we will give a decision," the Minister added.

Government sources said some relaxation in liquor sales, stopped during the lock-down period, is likely after the ongoing 21-day national clampdown ends on April 14. Twelve of the state's 30 districts remain free from the COVID-19 pandemic. Till Saturday, Karnataka reported 215 COVID-19 positive cases, including six deaths and 39 discharges.
