Mangalore, January 11: The Muslim Central Committee has urged the State Government to take legal action against senior RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat for daring the police department to arrest the people allegedly involved in the Sullia case and glorifying the accused at a public function.
Speaking to reporters here, Haji. K.S. Mohammed Masood, the president of the Committee said the BJP government in the state had accepted its failure by not initiating any action against leaders who publicly challenged the authority of the police, who have a duty to enforce rule of law as enshrined in the constitution.
He said it was unfortunate that at a time when Sadananda Gowda was trying his best to give a good administration, such incidents were taking place.
Reacting to the incident involving hoisting of Pakistani flag at the Tahsildar's office in Sindagi in Bijapur, Mr. Masood said, the true colour of the Sangh Parivar, which harps on patriotism had come out. He said, the incident was a ploy to gain political mileage in the coming elections.
Mr. Masood said the Muslim Central Committee was working tirelessly towards strengthening communal harmony and had won laurels by distributing soft drinks during the Hindu Samajotsava. It had also held consultations with the Sangh Parivar leaders whenever communal skirmish broke out and tried to restore peace.
He also urged the government to ban organizations which provoke people on communal lines and take stern action against miscreants.
Mr. Masood also condemned Pejawar Math Seer Vishwesha Tirtha Swamiji for unnecessarily dragging “Ifthar” into the ongoing controversy over Madesnaana and said if the seer was willing the Committee was prepared to arrange a dialogue between the Swamiji and the Muslim scholars.
