Following recent incidents of violence and crime in Karnataka, the BJP has accused the current government of promoting ‘Goonda Raj’ as the sixth guarantee to the people of the state. Leader of the Opposition, R. Ashoka, criticized the Chief Minister for neglecting law and order issues while celebrating his tenure.
Ashoka highlighted specific incidents like the attempted murder of a BJP MLA, the killing of a Hindu girl, and attacks on religious processions, blaming the Congress government for failing to maintain peace and protect religious practices. The BJP raised concerns about the alleged ban on Hindu religious practices under the current administration.
The Karnataka BJP, through social media, questioned whether the state government was orchestrating attacks on Hindu practices, citing multiple instances of violence during religious processions. The party accused the government of sheltering troublemakers and questioned its role in such incidents.
In response to BJP’s criticism, Home Minister G. Parameshwara defended the government’s actions, stating that legal measures were taken promptly in recent attacks. He called on the BJP to specify what additional actions they expected. The political exchange reflects escalating tensions over law and order issues in Karnataka.
