Voicing strong objection to BJP leaders in Bengaluru trying to “communalise” anomalies found in the city’s municipal body bed allotment system, prominent citizens of the Karnataka capital Thursday demanded Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa’s intervention to ensure “petty politicking and communalising does not worsen the situation.” https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/bangalore/ramachandra-guha-other-bengaluru-citizens-speak-out-again-tejasvi-suryas-communal-tweet-7304938/?utm_source=Taboola_Recirculation&utm_medium=RC&utm_campaign=IE
The action came after a video showing BJP leaders, including Bangalore South Lok Sabha MP Tejasvi Surya, Basavanagudi MLA Ravi Subramanya, Bommanahalli MLA Satish Reddy, and Chickpet MLA Uday Garudachar, reading out names and questioning the presence of 17 Muslim workers among 205 at a Covid-19 war room of the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) went viral on Wednesday. Among the noteworthy voices who raised alarm on the issue was author and historian Ramachandra Guha. “Are these four gentlemen freelancers or are they acting at the higher orders of their party,” he wondered.
An investigation by the Chief Secretary into the entire incident has also been demanded, urging the government to make the findings public. “We understand under their pressure 17 Muslim employees of the company have been removed from their posts, without any reason, thus losing their livelihoods in these dire times,” the letter added.
