Mangaluru, Sep 26: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Rahim Uchil has waged a legal battle against Congress leader and Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai for his alleged controversial remarks against Yuva Brigade leader Chakravarti Sulibele, who is known for his communally provocative speeches and anti-Muslim rants. 

Uchil, who is lobbying hard for BJP’s ticket from Mangaluru (erstwhile Ullal) constituency in next Assembly polls, on Monday filed a private complaint before the Second Judicial Magistrate of First Class Court against Rai. 

It is learnt that Uchil was deeply hurt by the remarks of Rai who allegedly mispronounced Sulibele as “Soole-Bele”, meaning “a prostitute’s price”. Rai also reportedly called Sulibele an “antinational”.

The controversial slip of the tongue occurred during a meeting at Asaigoli near Ullal on the outskirts of the city on September 22. 

In his complaint, Uchil has claimed that Sulibele underwent mental trauma because of Rai’s unexpected remarks. Uchil has also proclaimed that he is a fan of Sulibele and that both share an emotional bond.
