Sirsi  (PTI) : The five-time MP from Uttara Kannada had allegedly made the remarks at a press conference at Sirsi last Sunday.

BJP Lok Sabha MP Ananthkumar Hegde has landed in trouble with the police registering a criminal case against him suo motu for his alleged remarks linking Islam to terrorism.

The case has been booked at Sirsi in Uttara Kannada district under section 295(A) of IPC relating to “deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs,” police said.

The five-time MP from Uttara Kannada had allegedly made the remarks at a press conference at Sirsi last Sunday, drawing a link between Islam and terrorism, triggering protests from Muslim organisations.

Muslim organisations in the communally sensitive Bhatkal town in the district had held protests and submitted a memorandum to the district Superintendent of Police Vamsi Krishna, calling for action against Hegde.

Krishna said security had been tightened in Bhatkal as a precautionary step.

In the neighbouring Dakshina Kannada district also Muslim outfits had sought action.

State Health Minister U T Khader had requested Home Minister G Parameshwara to take suo motu action against Hegde for his “shocking and irresponsible” statement against Islam.

Dear readers, In PM Modi’s every third MP in the 16th Lok Sabha has criminal charges.Party-wise, the largest 98 or 35 percent of the 281 winners from the BJP have in their affidavits declared criminal cases against themselves and six of the 37 winners (16 percent) from the AIADMK, 15 of the 18 winners (83 percent) from the Shiv Sena ally of BJP. While PM Modi is globetrotting hard selling his dream project of ‘Make in India’ ,’Digital India’ ‘smart India’,his sangh affiliated bad mouth MP’s are barking man-ki-baat every now and then. Earlier it is Sadhvi,Yogi,baba are known for… Read more »

What a shame and national tragedy is this, a bunch of street rowdies are running the nation as M.P.s, Ministers etc, throwing totally destructive statements. India has the 2nd largest Muslim population in the world, 177 million people, out of the world’s 2nd largest population of 1.6 billion people. If he is not kicked out of the BJP and put him jail for a few years for his totally stupid and deeply hurting statement, it is a total shame and disgrace on the BJP. Beef handlers are put into jail for 10 years in Haryana, so he deserves more than… Read more »

Dear readers, Ruckus in Parliament over minister Ram Shankar Katheria’s hate speech http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/ruckus-in-parliament-over-minister-ram-shankar-katherias-hate-speech/1/608969.html http://www.thequint.com/india/2016/03/01/minister-ram-shankar-katheria-denies-hate-speech-against-muslims Smriti Irani’s deputy Ram Shankar Katheria is in trouble over his hate speech in Agra. Both Houses of the Parliament witnessed repeated disruptions over Katheria’s remarks as proceedings began today, a day after the Budget. While Irani is targeting campus after campus using ‘anti national’,his deputy is asking Hindus to arm and take revenge to convert ‘Agra into Muzaffarnagar’. In the city of love, Agra, so much hatred is spread. The man preaches hate, wants to divide the country on communal lines, calls own country men… Read more »

Srmiti Irani started playing her game plan to take over or to close the St. Stephen’s college using a student, putting shame and blame on a disabled professor for sexual harassment. Finally the truth came out. The specially appointed serial actress will be faced with many roles of political acting at the Parliament in the days to come. Whether in politics or business, there is an hidden spiritual dimension working, the current BJP Government has no idea about that due to their overconfidence, and the strategy used by certain autocrats of the world through repeating a lie a few dozen… Read more »

I don’t expect anything better from taqiyya artist Shaikh on this topic. However, look at the hypocrisy of AS Beef Mathew!!! On any given day, you can find a number of leading political leaders and thinkers here in USA making the same connection that the BJP MP made!! If you are an illiterate who is not aware of this simple fact, here are a few names to help you educate yourself – Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio (all presidential candidates), a number of progressive thinkers like Bill Maher, Sam Harris, Gaad Saad, Rubin etc. We also have tv channels… Read more »

Cow Pai, Trump has a breakless tongue, so he is talking before he is thinking which is a mild mental disorder. He won’t show his income tax return, hiding something. An honest politician. He may join the BJP shortly, thus some of the MPs will be getting more stamina to throw mud at the Muslims in India and around the world. How you think about him, he is against the IT professional taking the jobs in the U.S. Do you know anything about his Trump University bluffed 20000 people, charged upto $ 36000.00/person and he made 40 million, offering course… Read more »

RSS Pai Duplicate, no one expects anything better from you. You and your RSS are busy making infuriating speeches against Muslims, so that they would react in defence. This reaction, procured by you by insulting the Muslims, would polarise Hindus to provide Hindu Vote bank to ensure electoral victory in the ensuing elections to the Karnataka Assembly to the BJP. You want Congress Mukta Bharat by defeating the Congress in Karnataka. You would make Hindu BHarat, and make Bharath “Islam Mukt and Cristian Mukt”! RSS also wants the government of Karnataka to file cases against the religious crooks like Anantha… Read more »

“Didn’t he know that ‘IS’ in ISIS stands for ‘IDLI – SAMBAR’ ??” – STATES RSS STOOGE!

Sir, the ISIS flag and pro ISIS slogans gives political power to the RSS and BJP in Kashmir, by mating with the party of Mehbooba Mufti.

The ISIS in some Islamic countries, provide Idli Sambar and sweets to the RSS in India.

Dear readers, As BJP MP for making ‘blasphemous and insulting remarks’ against Islam and Muslims,Haryana BJP government who bowed to Jat violence is slowly saffronising cities,roads and airport after Hindutva. In a latest move,BJP government in Haryana has changed the name of Mustafabad village in Yamunanagar district to Saraswati Nagar. BJP govt renames Yamunanagar’s Mustafabad to Saraswati Nagar http://www.hindustantimes.com/punjab/bjp-govt-renames-yamunanagar-s-mustafabad-to-saraswati-nagar/story-LS75hjoyANZm7ffnk6Hi6H.html When the BJP rode to power in Haryana for the first time ever last year, riding on the crest of a Modi wave and a development agenda, it gave no hints that it would take steps to push Hindutva, soft or otherwise.… Read more »

Jihaadi Shaikh – What do you mean by Blasphemy? Please don’t bring up your centuries old laws in a modern society.
