Daijiworld Media Network – Mangalore (PS/SB)

Mangalore, Dec 20: District unit of Karnataka Dalit Sangharsh Samiti
has strongly condemned the decision of BJP government to shift
Ambedkar's statue located amidst Vidhana Soudha and High Court wherein
the government gives the reason of Metro project.

The union also said that the projected plan may cause insecurity for
Vidhana Soudha and High Court premises.

S P Anand, district chief secretary, addressing the protestors here on
Monday December 20 said that the union has placed the fulfillment of
five-point demand that includes withdraw of the decision pertaining to
shifting of Ambedkar's statue, prohibition of the controversial 'Urulu
Seve' or the 'Made Snana' which is being observed by the devotees in
Subrahmanya, suspension of Bunder circle inspector Vinay Gaonkar for
allegedly insulting dalit leaders when they had consulted him justice
for a poor woman, to build a Ambedkar Bhavan in Dakshina Kannada
district and to take serious actions against those who killed a small
girl child near Yeyyady, recently.

The protestors then handed over the appeal letter to the DC, which
will be submitted to the state Governor. Sesappa Nekkilu, Sanjeev R
and Jagdish Pandeshwar among others were present.
