Vijayapura, Aug 25: Senior BJP leader and Vijayapura MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal, who is known for his controversial and communally provocative remarks, said on Friday that Kerala was being punished with floods as it was a state of beef-eaters.

"If Hindu sentiments are provoked, then dharma will punish them. For instance, see what happened in Kerala, a state where people openly butcher calves... a state known as god's own country. Floods have occurred in that state within one year of conducting the beef festival," said Yatnal.

In June last year, Kerala MLAs had held a "beef festival" at the assembly canteen to protest against a central notification banning cattle trade and slaughter.

Yatnal went on to add that state BJP chief BS Yeddyurappa would become chief minister again. "As and when BJP comes to power in the state, cow slaughter will be prohibited," he said.

The MLA also criticised CM HD Kumaraswamy for "visiting masjid and temple" instead of addressing the grievances of those affected by floods.

Sir, we are in agreement with your statement linking Beef to Flood in Kerala, i believe you are aware that  poor cows and buffallos also dead in Kerala due to heavy rains and flood this year, this happened after they select one BJP representative to Kerala assembly.

By the way "Dharma" punihsed Coorg also for the same reason OR anything else?
