Udupi, Nov 3: A protest programme against terrorism was organized by the youth wing of the Kaup assembly constituency unit of the BJP here, recently.
Speaking on the occasion, BJP leader Baikady Suprasad Shetty held the Congress party solely responsible for the increasing acts of terrorism in the country. The soft approach of the Congress-led union government towards such activities with an eye on selfish intrests, has been boosting the anti-social elements engaged in undertaking terrorist activities, he said.
Now-a-days, terrorists from the country have gained in strength and creating problems for the nation. The union government is planning to implement the Sachar Committee report, which has resulted in the increasing acts of terrorism. The existing laws are insufficient to rein in the terrorist elements. Muslim youth should stay away from turning into religious bigots and should bring about a transformation in their mindset, he advised.
State youth leader and businessman Belve Vasanth Shetty said that the rising prices of necessities have made the lives of the poor people very difficult. They have to struggle even to get a square meal every day, he said. The union government and the Prime Minister, instead of showing sympathy to the plights of the poor and taking up steps to mitigate their hardships, are whiling away time in pleasing minorities, he criticized.
BJP workers Indira Lalaji Mendon, Vina Gururaj, Prakash Shetty, Muralidhar Pai, Jayanti Indushekar, Shambhavi Kulal, Vasanti Madhwaraj, Jagadish Acharya and Diwakar Shetty Mallar were present.
