Police foil BJP’s attempt to lay siege to Congress Office

Mysuru:  Amid an ongoing political storm over Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s remarks on Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the BJP’s attempt to lay siege to the Congress Office near Mysuru City Railway Station was thwarted by the Police this morning.
BJP workers accused the Congress of distorting Shah’s statement to further its political agenda and divide the Hindu community.
To prevent the BJP workers from storming the Congress office, Police erected barricades around the premises. However, the workers attempted to breach the barricades and Police cordon, leading to their detention. Police swiftly bundled them into vehicles stationed at the site.
