Ashraf M., leader of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), on Friday sought the resignation of Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai for suddenly declaring Aditya Rao, involved in planting a bomb at the Mangaluru airport, as a mentally ill person, which he termed, was a part of well thought-out conspiracy.
Addressing presspersons here, Mr. Ashraf said that similar statements had been made by other Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, which was unfortunate.
Earlier, the entire effort of a section of the media, especially some television channels, was to portray the Muslim community in a negative light without any cross-checking of facts. Now, this section of media was swallowing the establishment’s versions on Aditya Rao’s role without any questions, he said.
