Bangalore: The Shri Ram Sene (SRS) has called for a bandh in Karnataka tomorrow, to protest against the attack on its founder-leader Pramod Muthalik allegedly by a group of Youth Congress activists on Thursday.

 

The Shri Ram Sene activists came to the streets today to protest against the attack on Muthalik. Some miscreants had blackened Muthalik's face, while he was appearing at a debate organised by a local TV channel.

 

Over 100 Shri Ram Sene activists have been taken into custody, fearing violence during the bandh call. The BJP government in Karnataka has warned the Sena not to use violent ways to mark their protest.

 

Shri Ram Sene had earlier declared that it would go all out to disrupt the Valentine's Day Celebrations on February 14. "The government will not tolerate any attempt to disturb peace and tranquillity," Chief Minister Yeddyurappa warned.
