Serial Attacks on Churches in Mangalore
The day after the serial bomb blasts in Delhi, Dakshina Kannada witnessed terror attacks of another kind: co-ordinated, serial attacks on churches and other places of worship of Christians, under the pretext of opposing forceful conversions. Bajrang Dal and VHP, extensions of the party in power in Karnataka, took responsibility for the attacks, even as the Chief Minister blamed the opposition for ‘engineering’ them! The Home Minister, sworn in to protect the life and properties of the citizens without bias, aired his opposition to conversions rather than initiating action against the rioters. And a prominent leader of the Congress Party, asserting her Christian credentials, claimed that youth squads had been formed for self-protection. And there were instances of stabbing, stone throwing and arson. As the parliamentary elections are nearing, Mangalore is once again caught in the cross fire between religious groups.

Karnataka churches vandalised
And See How Impartial The Home Minister Is!
His mind highlighted in RED on his OWN Blog!
And he claims that action was initiated only after he personally visited the sites of violence! Wah Home Minister! Safety of the people of Karnataka is ensured as any action would be initiated ONLY after the Home Minister reaches such sites, be it attack on churches or bomb blasts! Expect to have an airport at Udupi soon!
