Sri Ram Sene founder Pramod Mutalik has blamed the Congress for the law and order disturbances in Belagavi, but felt that the BJP was not helping the Hindutva cause either.
“I think both the Congress and BJP leaders are bad. They are not helping in any way,” he said.
“Belagavi North MLA Firoz Sait is directly behind most of the law and order disturbances in the city. He has been giving illegal shelter to Bangladeshi refugees, only to enrol them in voter lists and get their support in elections. Mr. Sait is also behind Monday night's stone pelting. He is creating such problems only to strengthen his position before the assembly polls. He is putting undue pressure on the police not to arrest his followers who are involved in such events,” Mr. Mutalik told presspersons at his family home in Belagavi.
However, the BJP leaders are not helping the Hindu cause either, he added .
Leaders like Suresh Angadi, MP, are putting on masks of Hinduism for the sake of the elections. They have no real commitment towards protecting the Hindu interests. They are acting like flagbearers of the Hinduism only for political gains, he said.
