Sangh Parivar march

 

Workers of the Bharatiya Janata Party, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Hindu Aikya Vedi, and the ABVP staged a march to the office of the Superintendent of Police in Kannur on Wednesday afternoon demanding the arrest of all accused involved in the murder of the 23-year-old activist.

 

Over 500 Sangh Parivar activists participated in the march, which was barricaded near the Police Club by a large contingent of police personnel led by Deputy Superintendent of Police P. Sukumaran.

 

Hindu Aikya Vedi State general secretary Kummanam Rajashekharan inaugurated the march. He said the government was trying to implement religion-based criminal laws under pressure from organised religions.

 

RSS leader Valsan Thillankery and BJP district president K. Ranjith also addressed the marchers.

 

The marchers demanded a ban on the PFI and the CFI and a probe into the conspiracy behind the killing of the ABVP activist.

Bengaluru, Jun 28: Karnataka Minister for Medical Education Dr K Sudhakar faced criticism by netizens after he shared a TikTok video sent by his daughter and wife, who are currently undergoing treatment in a COVID-19 facility.

TikTok is a Chinese video-sharing social networking service owned by ByteDance, a Beijing-based internet technology company founded in 2012 by Zhang Yiming.

Dr Sudhakar’s father, his wife and daughter who tested positive for Covid-19 has been admitted to a designated facility and in order to make his birthday memorable, his daughter sent him greetings through TikTok video.

When the minister shared the TikTok video, people pointed out that the minister should know better and that he should urge his family to boycott the Chinese video-sharing platform and lead by example.

Many were miffed that a BJP leader put up a TikTok video at a time when tensions are running high between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.
