The Hindu
Criticising the Shiv Sena’s repeated efforts to raise border issues, former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy said such efforts were aimed at diverting the attention of the public from their dissatisfaction against the government.
“The Shiv Sena is viewing hoisting of Kannada flag by activists in Belagavi as a crime. In fact, Belagavi is ours. To hoist a Kannada flag is our right. Maharashtra has no right to question this,” he said in a series of tweets on Sunday. “Maharashtra has said that over the last eight days, there have been attacks on Marathi speakers. Who attacked our buses in Kolhapur first? The attack happened on Kannadigas while removing the Marathi boards in Belagavi. Despite this, Maharashtra is trying to desperately to draw attention,” he said.More Related News
