Karnataka attacks due to 'political patronage' ?
Condemning the kidnapping of a party legislator's daughter and her friend in Mangalore, the CPI(M) today said such attacks on minorities and women were taking place in Karnataka due to the "patronage, if not connivance" of the BJP government there.
IMO: The party legislator's daughter case could well have been set up by CPM looking for a sympathy vote as there is no evidence whatsoever of any CPM associate being actually injured. Bajrang Dal and Sri Ram Sena have denied involvement, and since the male was a muslim this suggests that they may not be involved.
As for the pub case involving Sri Ram Sena, they are not the official BJP and anyway I heard the report that the girls were there to make an illegal porn video in the pub. This seems to fit in with the other reports.
I think Sri Ram Sena act with the voice of desperation as much as anything, as their latest prank seems to be to tackle any young unmarried Hindu couple they regard as behaving inappropropriately in public on Valentine's day and actually force them to marry. Perhaps the worst punishment some people could get.
