K Shanker state member of CPI (M) addressing the protesters said that, in the name of Gau Raksha, Hindu outfits are playing with the lives of minorities and Dalits. The police department and the state government should take strict action against these Gau Rakshaks. The state government should take Praveen Poojary’s death seriously. These days attacks on Dalits and minorities have increased. The common people are not safe in the state. When there is a clear message of the consequences to people taking the law into their hands, then only these type of attacks can be brought under control, he added.
