Mangalore, Jan 7, 2014: Former Union Minister and senior Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary urged government to take stringent action against RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat for his hatred speech against other religions during Hindu Sangama held recently.

Speaking at the press meet held at Congress Office on Jan 7, Tuesday, he said that Prabhakar Bhat, who is doctor by profession should have involved himself in social welfare activities, but he is going against his profession and indulged in raising communal issues through hatred speeches against other religions.

He also said that Bhat, from many years has been involved in such issues. Being born in Hindu community, he must respect the thoughts and values of religion and not hurt the sentiments of other religion, he said.

Poojary also said that Bhat must learn the values of Hinduism from Swamy Vivekananda and other notable personalities who worked to spread the rich Hindu culture throughout the world. Bhat is destroying the purity of the religion, which has its own culture, tradition and respect.

He also said that few organizations have misuse the youths through provocative speeches and encouraged them to follow their principles. Most of the youths are suffering in jail; due to such provocative organization, he said.

He also urged the government and police department to take stringent action against Bhat and the organizers of Hindu Sangama. If the government fails to do so then he will take action against the government, he warned.

Bhat is RSS follower and Hindus will not entertain him. Such organizations will be active only during elections to create vote bank, he said.

Poojary condemned social welfare minister H Anjaneya for demolishing the wall of Vidhana Soudha and said that strict action must be taken against him since Vidahana Soudha is like temple and no one has the right to change it.

Leaders Vijay Kumar Shetty, Kodijal Ibrahim, Kallige Tharnath Shetty, Sadashiv Ullal and Harikrishna Bantwal and others were present.
