I think this hate monger belongs to the family of MP Shoba, Ananta Kumar, Giriraj etc. I am sorry to say that these people are illiterate and still kids. They dont know what is ammunition and where they are stored. They think food grains or water or any items for use in Masjids are ammunitions. These people are either fool or trying to fool public. They are agents of Sangh parivar and trying to create unrest in society owing to upcoming election. Karnataka Govt should take note of this hate monger and arrest him immedaitely. He should be stripped of MP post as he is not fit to this position.
Please invite him to the Masjid and show him how we worship ALLAH alone who has no partners. There is no God but ALLAH and Muhammad is his messenger of God... who conveyed the message of ONENESS of God who has no image....(NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI) I think he should CONTEMPLATE on this verse of VEDAS to come near to the CREATOR of all that EXISTS. Picture will be CLEARNED when people PONDER on their own SCRIPTuRe which says GOD is 1 there is no SECOND and it has no image.... (Those who look honestly about the TRUE CREATOR, The CREATOR will Guide them to TRUTH)
Out of his brain...
