Congress MLA B.K. Hariprasad has courted controversy once again by refusing to answer queries by the CCB police over his Godhra-like incident remark made last week. Upset over police landing at the government guest house to question him, the MLC wondered if Karnataka was being ruled by the Congress government or some outsider.
Congress leader BK Hariprasad stirs controversy with his claim of a potential 'Godhra-like incident' in Karnataka leading up to the consecration ceremony of Ram temple in Ayodhya. BJP demands his arrest.
The former Rajya Sabha member said: "A similar (Godhra-like) situation can be created here also. So, no room should be given for any untoward incident to happen in Karnataka. All the arrangements should be made for those willing to go to Ayodhya so that we should not see another Godhra happening in Karnataka."
BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad reacted to the remarks and said that such remarks are shameful and the whole INDIA bloc can cross any limits to garner votes.
