Belagavi stripping incident | BJP to stage dharna in all district centres on December 16

The Hindu  

The principal Opposition BJP is staging dharna in all the district centres of Karnataka on Saturday, December 16, to protest against the episode of a woman being stripped and tied to pole by the relatives of a girl who eloped with the woman’s son in Belagavi district. Vijayendra said women would participate in large numbers in these protests, which were being taken up to caution the government about the need to strengthen law and order system in the state. He said a five-member team from the BJP central unit would visit Belagavi district on Saturday to call on the victim who is undergoing treatment at a hospital. He alleged that this was evident in the fact that none of the ministers, barring Home Minister G. Parameshwara, had visited the victim though the incident had happened in Belagavi where the legislature session was being held.
