Mangaluru: The members of Vishwa Hindu Parishad(VHP) and Bajrang Dal staged a protest near PVS junction on Friday.

The activist protested against the killings of Bajrang Dal member Deepak Rao in Katipalla

Addressing the protest, VHP leader M B Puranik said that “The Siddaramaiah led Congress government is in support of minorities and are not supporting Hindus,”

“Congress is against the Hindu community. It is indirectly helping the terror groups to eliminate the Hindus,” he alleged.

Police had a tough time bringing the situation under control and arrested leaders like Jagadish Shenava, M B Puranik, Sharan Pumpwell and hundreds of other VHP and Bajrang Dal activists. They were later released.
