Harikrishna Bantwal has no Moral Rights to Speak about Dharmasthala – Bantwal Block Congress
Mangaluru: “Harikrishna Bantwal has not moral rights to call District Minister In-charge Ramanath Rai to swear in Dharmasthala of using abusive language against senior Congress leader Janardhan Poojary”, said the Bantwal Block Congress spokesperson Jagadish Koyla in a press meet held at the District Congress office here on January 3.
Addressing the mediapersons Jagadish Koyla said, “Earlier Harikrishna Bantwal was speaking against Shree Kshetra Dharmasthala. Even Harikrishna Bantwal had questioned Dr D Veerendra Heggade about the administration of Shree Kshetra Dharmasthala. Now he is calling minister Ramanath Rai to Dharmasthala to swear in front of Lord Manjunatheshwara”.
Jagadish Koyla further said, “Congress leader Janardhan Poojary had thrice lost the elections and Harikrishna Bantwal was the main reason for his defeat. If Harikrishna Bantwal wouldn’t have criticized Shree Kshethra Dharmasthala, Poojary would have won the elections. Harikrishna Bantwal has no political stability, no one in the BJP cares for him. For political gain, he is putting allegations on Ramanath Rai.”
Jagadish Koyla also said, “Harikrishna Bantwal is a Yakshagana Artiste and he is limited to the stage. He is himself calling him a Billawa leader but no one considers him a leader in the Billawa community. He does not believe in Dharma. This is a political gimmick, he will not succeed.”
Bantwal Block President Mayilappa Salian, Panemangaluru Block President Abbas Ali, Taluk Panchayat President Chandrahas Karkera, Zilla Panchayat memberr Chandraprakash Shetty, Padmashekhar Jain, Ramakrishna Alva, Sadashiva Bangera, Sanjeev Poojary, B Vasu Poojary Loretto, Chandrashekar Baltila and Prashanth Kulal were also present.
