Nothings to get shock. These people are expert in cooking up of stories and forcefully convert all lies as true. Ms. Shobha unfortunately was Minister and now MP that too in District like Udupi. We never expect any kind of apology from her because she has long back lost that credibility of pleading guilty from people. \It's suits her and her followers\". Enjoy."

But, why importance to RSS activists over other Indians? Hundreds of people murdered in Karnataka in last four years for various reasons like family dispute, property row etc. But, why she is ignoring those deaths? Just because they don’t fetch her political mileage?
