Udupi February 13: The local unit of Jamaath-e-Islam Hind staged a protest in front of Taluk office here condemning the Assembly porngate and St Mary's Island rave party.

They lashed out at the ruling party of the state for its 'unfulfilled promises' and 'immoral activities'.

They said that the BJP leaders not only desecrated the Assembly and one of the prominent tourist places of the state, but also justified their acts. Their justification is a clear message to the people that they will repeat such things in future too, they said.
