Eknath Shinde accused the Siddaramaiah government of "repressing" the Maratha community by arresting several leaders.
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Monday criticised the Karnataka government for denying permission to 'Marathi Ekikaran Samiti' to hold their conference in the state.
Mr Shinde accused the Siddaramaiah government of "repressing" the Maratha community by arresting several leaders.
Speaking to the media, Mr Shinde said, "Marathi-speaking people in Karnataka had organised a conference. In this country, one can live anywhere, go anywhere and organise a conference, but the Karnataka government unleashed a cycle of repression and arrested the MLA, mayor and more than 100 Marathi-speaking brothers and sisters of the Marathi Ekikaran Samiti who had organised the conference. I condemn this."
