Mangaluru, Apr 18: Congress leader and Member of Karnataka Legislative Assembly from Puttur, Shakuntala Shetty has suggested Taliban model punishment for the temple rapists of Kashmir.

Speaking at a party meeting in her constituency yesterday, Ms Shetty said that those who gang-raped 8-year-old girl inside a temple at Kashmir’s Kathua for a week and later murdered her should be hanged to death in full public view.

“The rapists have exhibited shocking cruelty. They are disgrace to humanity. They should be hanged ruthlessly in public. None of them should be spared,” she said. 

Ms Shetty, who was once a BJP leader, also questioned the silence of saffron party over the rapes and murders committed by the so called Hindutva leaders and activists.

Hassan, Feb 2: Former prime minister and JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda has said that the controversy over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act should be resolved peacefully through discussion.

Speaking to reporters in Halebeed on Saturday, Gowda said that the Act affects only Muslims but would also prove troublesome for the Hindus. “Opening fire on anti-CAA protesters is the not solution to the issue,” he said.

Deve Gowda said that during his tenure as prime minister a number of problems concerning Muslims were addressed. “But, in the run up to election, Rahul Gandhi described us ‘B’ team of BJP. This led to vote swing,” he added. When his comment was sought on the budget, the former prime minister said that he had not yet read the budget document.
