Mandya, Aug 22: BJP workers in Mandya protested against film star-turned-politician after she rebutted Union Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar's comment that “going to Pakistan is like going to hell”.
Ms. Ramya, who visited Pakistan to attend SAARC conference recently, said the ground-level situation in the country was different.
Reacting to her comments, former BJP State president Pralhad Joshi asked her to go to Pakistan, and BJP leader Jaggesh said she was issuing such statements to appease her party's national leadership.
The former Mandya MP is also being trolled on social media for the last three days following her comment.
Participating in an ABVP protest against anti-nationalism, Jaggesh said: "People who have not studied and don't have any experience are praising Pakistan. They should be given a peace prize, maybe a Nobel. They should also be allowed to stand next to Bill Clinton and take photos."
Not stopping there, Jaggesh described those supporting anti-national sentiments as 'mosquiotoes and bedbugs', and that they should be destroyed with poison. Ramya reacted with a tweet that read: "Ouch! That hurts!"
She also sarcastically tweeted a report about RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat saying Pak is our brother' government must work to improve ties'. Her tweet said: “Mohan Bhagwatji of the RSS says that Pakistan is India's brother :) & @narendramodi famous visit to pak we all know (sic).”
Ramya supporters react
Meanwhile, Ramya's supporters on social media have questioned the double standard of BJP, which remained silent when Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar raised Pakistan Zindabad slogan.
“Ramya never raised Pakistan Zindabad slogan like pro-BJP guruji. She just said that all Pakistanis are not bad,” they said, reminding Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Islamabad visit without invitation.
“Last year RSS said Pakistan is “our brother”. Before that L K Advani praised Pakistan founder Jinnah. Several BJP leaders praised Pakistan on different occasions. But when a true Indian like Ramya gives a statement, they ask her to go to Pakistan,” said one of her follower.
Bengaluru, Feb 14: After the swearing-in of ten former JDS and Congress MLAs, political boundaries seem to have become more fluid, with little clarity on who is on whose side. When Honnali BJP MLA Renukacharya visited senior Congressman DK Shivakumar at the latter’s residence, many eyebrows were raised over the reason behind the meeting. There was speculation over why Renukacharya would be meeting a man who is, in all likelihood, slated to be the next KPCC president.
