Mysore/Mysuru: Alleging that the BJP has created fictional characters like Urigowda and Nanjegowda just for politicking and to defame Vokkaligas, the Congress has urged Vokkaligara Sangha and Community Seers to lodge a complaint against BJP leaders for having created the fictional characters in order to arouse communal passions.
Addressing a press meet at the Congress Bhavan near the City Railway Station here yesterday, KPCC Spokesperson M. Lakshmana said that BJP leaders such as Dr. C.N. Ashwathnarayan, C.T. Ravi and Shobha Karandlaje should conclusively prove with documents including the State Gazetteer on their claims that Urigowda and Nanjegowda had indeed killed Tipu Sultan. Otherwise, the people of old Mysore region should drive away these BJP leaders whenever they happen to visit the districts of the region, he said.
