Bengaluru: Pramod Muthalik, the chief of the Karnataka-based rightwing group Sri Ram Sene, while targeting people accusing Narendra Modi if keeping mum on the murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh, Pramod Muthalik on Sunday said “why should the prime minister react if some dog dies in Karnataka?”
He was speaking at a public meeting in Bengaluru, NDTV reported.
Pramod Muthalik’s Sri Ram Sene is notorious for a vicious attack in 2009, on young men and women at a pub in Mangalore.
“Two murders happened in Karnataka and two happened in Maharashtra during the Congress regime. No one is uttering a word over Congress government’s failure. Instead, they are asking why PM Modi is silent and not commenting on Gauri Lankesh’s death. Many wanted PM Modi to react after Lankesh’s death. Why should PM react if some dog dies in Karnataka?” news agency ANI said quoting Pramod Muthalik, according to NDTV.
