Mangalore, Mar 4, 2012: Members of the Bajrang Dal were arrested for protesting against the visit of M. Veerappa Moily, the union corporate affairs minister, near the grounds of Milagres college on March 4 Sunday.
Moily was scheduled to arrive at this venue to participate in a convention of self-help groups associated with the Canara Organization for Development and Peace (CODP).
The Bajrang Dal, which had protested near the Mangalore Airport where Moily alighted on late Saturday evening, had warned that they will protest near the venues of every program Moily would participate in when he was in Mangalore.
The Barang Dal is furious about the fact that Moily referred to them as “ghosts” in one of his public statements.
