Bengaluru, Jan 17: In reaction to the BJP Yuva Morcha 'cleansing' the stage with cow urine after his speech at Sirsi in Uttara Kannada district, actor Prakash Rai asked if they would do so everywhere he went.

Rai shared on Twitter a clipping of a report in 'Prajavani' about the incident. He wrote: ``BJP workers cleaning and purifying the stage ..from where I spoke in Sirsi town ...by sprinkling cow urine (divine gomoothra)...will you continue this cleaning and purification service where ever I go.....#justasking (sic).''

Rai had spoken at an event held at the Raghavendra Mutt in Sirsi on Saturday, titled 'Our Constitution Our Pride'. In his speech, he criticised Union Minister Anantkumar Hegde's comment about changing the constitution.

Following this, on Monday, the BJP workers 'purified' the venue by cleaning it with cow urine.

"The presence of people who eat cow meat and insult Hindu deities has made the whole city of Sirsi impure. Society will not forgive Prakash Rai. This is why we have to clean this religious space," BJP Yuva Morcha Sirsi unit president Vishal Marathe had said.

The actor's tweet was liked by over 1,500 people and tweeted more than 440 times.

Guys if you more urine, then please give them to Ramdev baba. He is running short for his products. Shameless people who eat those products. Cow Urine in products & people are so un-educated to eat them?

Bengaluru, Jun 27: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Saturday emphasised on giving a new dimension to the city by strengthening the infrastructure and improving various other sectors including health and housing.

He was speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony of the 108-feet-tall bronze statue of Kempe Gowda, the founder of Bengaluru, at the Kempegowda International Airport near here. The statue would be built at a cost of Rs 66 crore in one-and-half years.

Yediyurappa said Bengaluru has earned the fame of Garden City and Silicon Valley of India. Noting that the state capital was one of the fastest-growing cities in the world and internationally acclaimed hub of information technology and biotechnology, he said, "We need to give a new dimension to this city and strengthen the infrastructure. We have to focus on health, housing, pollution control, traffic management. Our government has taken various measures to develop the city," the chief minister said.

On Kempe Gowda, Yediyurappa said though the city did not have a perennial river, he built hundreds of lakes and interconnected them. His water management reflects on his foresightedness, he added.

"Kempambudhi, Dharmambudhi, Sampaniram and Halasuru lake are among the major lakes gifted to the people of Bengaluru. He had set up the markets called Chickpet, Akkipet, Balepet, Kumbarpet, are still the major trade hubs," Yediyurappa said.

Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, Union Minister of State for Railways Suresh Angadi, deputy chief ministers Govind Karjol, Dr C N Ashwath Narayan, Laxman Savadi and many other ministers were present on the occasion. The event was organised on the 511th birth anniversary of Kempe Gowda. Kempe Gowda was a chieftain of Vijayanagara dynasty who founded Bengaluru around 550 years ago.
