Mysore/Mysuru: Accusing the Opposition BJP of hatching a conspiracy to create communal tensions in Karnataka, KPCC Spokesperson M. Lakshmana alleged that the State BJP is acting under the instructions of Union Home Minister Amit Shah to destabilise the Congress Government by citing communal disturbances and law-and-order issues.
Addressing a press conference at Indira Gandhi Congress Bhavan near the City Railway Station on Wednesday, Lakshmana demanded that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) probe the Maddur violence that erupted during a Ganesh idol immersion procession after stone pelting incidents. Calling the violence “pre-planned,” he questioned whether the BJP has now assumed control over Hinduism.
