Bengaluru: Locking horns with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over the anti-cow slaughter ordinance, Congress leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah challenged the BS Yediyurappa-led state government to stop him from eating beef. I will eat beef if I want to. Nobody can stop me. Who are you to question me? If you don t eat, leave it, I am not going to force you. This is what I had once said in the assembly, he said addressing party workers at the 136th foundation day of the Congress here.
He urged Congress workers to spread the message that the party believed in Hindutva that was practised and preached by enlightened souls like Mahatma Gandhi and Gopal Krishna Gokhale.
