Mangaluru, Dec 13: MLA U T Khader said that social media users passing derogatory comments on Gen Bipin Rawat’s death are anti-nationals.
Addressing media here on Monday December 13, Khader said, “The entire nation is shocked after the death of Gen Bipin Rawat, but a few are seen celebrating his death on the social media. The government should consider this seriously and take necessary action against the commentators on social media.
“The government should expose their faces through media. Such commentators are anti-nationals and they should be expelled from the country. When IAS officer Sasikanth Senthil gave his resignation, BJP MLAs termed him as an anti-national. But today, when miscreants celebrate the death of Gen Bipin Rawat, none of the BJP leaders have spoken about it and termed them as anti-nationals. Why is the police department slow in revealing the culprits’ faces to the public? The public should see the faces who celebrate the death of Gen Bipin Rawat,” he said.
When asked about the government introducing in anti-conversion law, Khader said, “This is nothing but diverting the minds of people from real issues. It is a political agenda. The BJP government did not give ration cards, houses for poor, compensation for the Covid deaths, scholarships and many more. They just want to hide their failures and corruption. No religion or party teaches forced conversion. There is a certain law under IPC for forced conversion and action can be taken accordingly. The BJP is spreading wrong message to the public by targeting one particular community
“When asked about moral policing, the chief minister comes up with the statement of action and reaction. Today, when moral policing is rising, who is responsible for it?” he questioned.
