Take action against people seeking ban on Muslim traders, says Revanna
The HinduJD leader and former Minister H.D. Revanna has urged the Hassan district administration to take action against those who want a ban on Muslim traders in festivals. Speaking at a press conference in Hassan on Monday, Mr. Revanna said the Deputy Commissioner and Superintendent of Police should take action against people, parties and organisations demanding a ban on Muslim traders. Members of progressive organisations staged a dharna in front of the Deputy Commissioner’s office on the day urging the district administration not to heed the demand of pro-Hindutva groups to restrict Muslim traders in festivals. Recently pro-Hindutva groups had submitted a memorandum to the Belur taluk administration seeking a ban on Muslim traders during the Channakeshava Jatre in Belur to be held in April.
