Even though the Sangh Parivar had said that the protest against Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s visit will be voluntary, instances of forcible closure of shops during the day has been reported. However, none of the affected persons have lodged any complaint with the jurisdictional police so far, police authorities said.

The issue was raised during yesterday’s monthly SC/ST meeting organised by city police where a Dalit community leader complained that notwithstanding strict police vigil, miscreants forcibly closed down shops.

K M Shantharaju, deputy commissioner of police (law and order) who chaired the meeting, said police would initiate action against anyone against whom they receive a complaint to this effect or are able to find direct evidence of people have being coerced to do so.

The leaders said people are wary of lodging a police complaint in such cases lest it antagonizes people and other influential people with whom they interact on a daily basis.

M Sanjeev Patil, deputy commissioner of police (crime and traffic), said as a matter of rule, people may always call the city police control room on 100 in such cases or other instances where local or other miscreants try to browbeat the locals and the personnel from jurisdictional police will initiate action.

According to this BJP leader, eating flattened rice could mean you are Bangladeshi

Agencies

January 24,2020

Indore, Jan 24: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Kailash Vijayvargiya on Thursday said that he suspected that there were some Bangladeshis among construction labourers who worked at his house recently.

Their “strange” eating habits aroused suspicion about their nationality, the BJP general secretary said at a seminar in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) here.

When a new room was being added at his house recently, he found “eating habits” of some of the workers “strange” as “they were eating only `poha’ (flattened rice)”, he said.

After talking to their supervisor and the building contractor, he suspected that these workers were from Bangladesh, the BJP leader said.

When reporters questioned him later, Vijayvargiya said, “I suspected these workers were residents of Bangladesh. Two days after I became suspicious, they stopped working at my house. I have not filed any police complaint yet. I only mentioned this incident to warn people,” he said.

Speaking at the seminar, Vijayvargiya also claimed that a Bangladeshi terrorist was keeping a watch on him for the last one and a half years.

“Whenever I go out, six armed security personnel follow me. What is happening in this country? Will outside people enter and spread so much terror?” he asked.

“Don’t get confused by rumours. The CAA is in the interest of the country. This law will provide asylum to genuine refugees and identify intruders who are a threat to the country’s internal security,” he added.
