Pistols, revolvers and other dangerous weapons that can be used for terror activities are being smuggled to Karnataka from BJP ruled northern states of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh, according to State Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy.

The revelation comes days after the arrest of Hindu Yuva Sene leader Naveen Kumar T alias Hotte Manja by the special investigation team probing Gauri Lankesh murder case. The 38-year-old gunrunner from Maddur in Mandya was caught at the KSRTC bus stand in Majestic area in Bengaluru when he was trying to sell .32-calibre gun and 15 live bullets.

Speaking to media persons in Mysuru on Saturday (March 3), Mr Reddy said that he had sought the support of the state governments of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh to curb weapons smuggling into the south India state. He said that weapons available in those states easily reach the prospective buyers in Karnataka.

“The weapons are being supplied to the underworld gangsters mailing from those three states. Hence, necessary measures should be taken to address the problem at the grass-root level. The chief ministers of three BJP-ruled states must consider our appeal," he said.

The minister said that Karnataka government has already taken initiatives to curb smuggling of weapons into the state. The senior police officers are in touch with their counterparts in the neighbouring states, he added.

This is proof for the existence of saffron terrorism in India. This is also proof for BJP’s involvement in saffron terrorism. This is also proves that BJP is an anti-national force.

Uttar Pradesh was a hub of illegal weapons during Samajwadi party rule. BJP CM Yogi has succeeded in curbing illegal arms in the UP.

This is indeed a serious issue. Unfortunately not being highlighted by mainstream media in spite of direct revelation by the home minister. Reddy should pressurise the police department to deal with saffron terror with iron fist. As elections are nearing they may be conspiring for something big.
