Advocate Katnamane Vittala Gowda, who claims to be Kodagu district president of a group called Prajaranga', filed the complaint on Monday, accusing Ramya of “insulting” Indian patriots by “praising” Pakistan.

He urged the court to direct the police to book Ramya for “sedition” and for “disturbing” peace in Karnataka.

JMFC court judge, Shyam Prasad, admitted the complaint and posted the hearing to August 27. Ramya had made the remark at a convention in Mandya on Sunday.

Very Low level of thinking.

The Gov't of India is keeping their embassy and maintaining all normal relations with Pakistan like these with any other countries.

Praising anybody is always the sign of your goodness. But condemning blindly is bad.
Find the reasons why is it happening. All because of Kashmir issues not solving politically. Until the issue is fairly solved, this unrest between 3parties will carry on with all future generations.
Unfortunately innocent civilians and soldiers have to pay the price.

Study the problem, think and advise the government to find a fair solutions

Mangaluru, June 10: Former minister and Mangaluru MLA U T Khader has hit out at the Karnataka government for what he opined that it is misusing the Epidemic Diseases Act to target opposition parties. 

The statement comes in the backdrop of state government’s move to scuttle oath taking ceremony of KPCC president designate D K Shivakumar.

Asserting that the oath taking will be a grand affair, Mr Khader said that Congress will not be browbeaten by the tactics of the BJP.

Citing the blatant violation of all norms laid down under the Act by minister for health B R Sriramulu at Chitradurga earlier this month, Khader told reporters that the BJP is using the Act for its narrow political gains.

“KPCC has twice deferred swearing in ceremony of Shivakumar after being given the oral go ahead,” Khader claimed, adding the state government must explain to people the issue it has with the Congress organising this function.

Referring to the back-to-back virtual political rallies – one for Bihar and the other for Odisha – on Sunday and Monday that union home minister Amit Shah conducted, Khader wondered if the Act did not apply to the BJP leadership.
