Those who respect other religions are real Hindus: Madhu Bangarappa

Mangaluru: Minister for School Education and Literacy Madhu Bangarappa said that the BJP has been following a dirty strategy of engaging in politics over deaths and religion. “Now, they have chosen Rama for political mileage. I have no right to prevent them from doing so.”

“We are real devotees of Rama and will continue to offer prayers from here itself even if there is no invitation. I am an original Hindu. Let them introspect whether they are duplicate Hindus or not,” the minister told reporters here on Saturday.

“We do not keep projecting ourselves as Hindus. Those who respect other religions are real Hindus. People have seen those who claim themselves as Hindus disrupting peace in the coastal region. They use Hindutva as a vote bank. When I get an opportunity, I will visit Ayodhya or any other place in the coming days. I will visit Ayodhya, masjid, church or Bodhgaya. However, as a son of Bangarappa and a Congress worker, I will not engage in politics in the name of God.”

“It is the voters who decide our future and not B S Yediyurappa and Nalin Kumar Kateel,” he said while reacting to a query on the BJP’s demand for his resignation.

“Who was responsible for BJP’s debacle in the assembly election in the state? Nalin Kumar Kateel should have tendered his resignation. It was not Congress workers who jolted the DK MP’s car over the Yuva Morcha worker’s murder,” said Madhu Bangarappa.

To a query on the Congress high command giving responsibility to the ministers to win the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, Madhu Bangarappa asked if it is wrong on the part of the party leadership to issue guidance.

“I have become minister due to the high command and I am engaged in imparting education to children. It is a sacred job to impart education,” he said.

Home Minister Dr G Parameshwar recently stated that the party leadership has issued a stern warning to the ministers in order to instil sincerity in ensuring the party’s victory in their respective seats. “We ministers have to take responsibility. There is nothing wrong with the high command to state ‘perform or perish.”

“I was given the task of submitting details on candidates for the Lok Sabha elections from Dakshina Kannada. All India Congress Committee (AICC) state in-charge general secretary Randeep Surjewala and other leaders had asked me to travel to the coastal district. I have given a few details on the candidates. High Command will take a call.”
