workers of Bajrang Dal and BJP gathered there to recite Hanuman Chalisa to
protest against the grand-old party’s poll promise in Karnataka to ban
Bajrang Dal.
Dozens of BJP and Bajrang Dal workers gathered outside Gandhi Bhavan and
started raising religious slogans and chanting Hanuman Chalisa.
On an information about the protest, police had tightened the security at
Gandhi Bhavan by deploying force and erecting barricades.
The saffron-clad protesters, who sat on the road in front of the Congress
office, were detained by the police.
Meanwhile, Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth
Reddy said if Union Minister Kishan Reddy and MP Laxman come forward he was
ready to recite Hanuman Chalisa with them.
“We are Hindus. We have no objection in reciting Hanuman Chalisa. Let
Kishan Reddy and Laxman come, we will together recite,” Reddy said.
