    If this incident has to do with politics, I think its better for Congi leaders to join and amalgamate with JDS. Cong has no existence in the state, and if anyone is bashed only God has to save him. But lets see what 'Guru' has to say on the purpose of beating 'social activists'. There is no some without fire.

    Is this how social activists are treated , mangalore catholic sabha and affliated legal lawyers file a case and demand heavy compensation and jail forever to this goonda

    This news also should travel to abroad countries to see how minorities are targetted for no fault of theirs.

    I agree with 'tell the truth'. This person known for such things. Im sure 2 friends turned enemies!! There must be some personal grudge for the attack.
