Mangaluru, Jun 27: An appeal has been submitted to Mangaluru police commissioner urging action against Karavali Rashid Tippu, who has allegedly posted derogatory comments on former union minister and senior Congress leader Janardhan Poojary.
The appeal addressed to the police commissioner has been submitted to Urwa police station by Biruver Kudla organization.
The alleged post made in the Facebook account of the accused states, "Janardhan Poojary is a peculiar person who enjoyed power continuously in his own party but bats for BJP. Congress high command has also not opposed him so far. If any person belonging to minority community had done such an anti-party activity, he would have been suspended by Congress. Stop this apartheid attitude."
In addition, the accused uploaded a photo of Janardhan Poojary accompanied by a derogatory caption.
Biruver Kudla organization has strongly condemned the post and appealed the police to take appropriate action.
As it was an appeal and not a formal complaint, the police are yet to register an FIR.
