BJP calls arrest of Kerala Hindutva ideologue T.G. Mohandas discriminatory
The party alleges that the arrest is a ‘drama’ intended to divert attention from lapses in flood relief operations and protest by the coastal community
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has denounced the "discriminatory" arrest of Hindutva ideologue T.G. Mohandas, describing it as a "drama" aimed at diverting attention from shortcomings in flood relief efforts and a protest by the coastal community. While acknowledging Mohandas's remarks were unacceptable, BJP State general secretary S. Suresh stated in a statement that several individuals in Kerala, including those threatening Prime Minister Narendra Modi, were evading legal action due to the protection offered by the United Democratic Front (UDF) government.
The BJP's reaction to the arrest of Mohandas highlights the party's concerns about the political climate in Kerala and its potential impact on addressing the recent flood crisis.
