Mangaluru, March 5, 2025: Mangaluru City South unit of the BJP staged a protest near the Mini Vidhana Saudha on Tuesday to condemn the police action of filing an FIR against local MLA Vedavyas Kamath and also to condemn the alleged assault on a scheduled caste youth by Congress workers.
MP Brijesh Chowta who participated in the protest alleged that the police registered FIR against the MLA without proper enquiry soon after someone lodged a complaint while the police in an earlier instance wanted legal advice to file FIR against a Congress MLC Ivan D’Souza who commented against the governor.
He also went on to say that the end of Congress would begin from Karnataka.
BJP District President Satish Kumpala, Monappa Bhandari, former mayor Sudhir Shetty Kannur, Mayor Manoj Kumar, Diwaker Pandeshwar and others took part in the protest.
