Udupi, May 05, 2018 :  In the Karnataka elections, a major charge levelled by the BJP is that 23 of their workers have been killed by ’jihadi’ forces in the past five years, under the Congress rule.

 

The BJP lawmaker from Udupi Shobha Karandlaje wrote a letter to the Home Ministry last year listing all 23 names.

The first name on the list is of Ashok Poojary, killed, according to the letter on September 20, 2015.

Except Poojary is still alive.
