On Sunday, Congress party workers allegedly resorted to vandalism and attempted to prevent well-known social activist and orator, Chakravarthy Sulibele from addressing the gathering at Poornaprajna Vidyapeetha at Bangalore, reports Deccan Herald.

According to reports, Chakravarthy Sulibele, a vocal supporter of PM Narendra Modi was at the venue to attend Vishnu Sahasranama Yajna, which was organised to serve the cause of the nation. As Sulibele began to address the gathering, the goons allegedly belonging to the Congress party started shouting slogans against PM Narendra Modi.

Reportedly, some of the BJP supporters present at the programme raised pro-Modi slogans in response to Congress supporters. Sulibele, however, asked them not to shout slogans, saying that it was not a political programme.

The organisers had to intervene to state that the event was a prayer meet and requested supporters not to shout any slogan but their efforts went in vain. As the situation turned tense at that time, the police intervened and controlled it.

Following the incident, Sulibele tweeted, “Some congi goondas came to the program at Vidyapeetha today where I was speaking on ‘RashtraDharma’ and tried disturbing me. But none cared them.”

However, Election observers reached the spot and informed Sulibele that there is no provision to seek votes within temple premises. But Sulibele insisted that he was there to speak about the nation and not about any candidate. After he was informed about the election norms, Sulibele left the spot without delivering his speech.

Author Sahana Singh narrated the incident and accused the Congress party workers of unleashing at Poorna Pragnya Vidyapeetha Bangalore during the Vishnu Sahasranama Yajna. Singh said that goons allegedly belonged to the Congress party kicked, beat up people, shouted anti-Modi and pro-Rahul Gandhi Zindabad slogans inside the temple premises. She said that what was supposed to be a gathering of Dharmic scholars, musicians and writers became a scene of vandalism because of Congress goons. According to Deccan Herald, however, the police has denied the incident of anyone being attacked.

What was meant to be a gathering of Dharmic scholars, musicians & writers became a scene of vandalism last evening at Vidyapeetha, Bengaluru. Congress goons shouted slogans against @narendramodi & physically assaulted the audience. Totally unacceptable! #CongressTerrorInBengaluru — Sahana Singh (@singhsahana) April 8, 2019

She said her mother and sister had returned from Vidyapeetha in the morning feeling spiritually uplifted after chanting Vishnu Sahasranama. They had no idea of the ugliness that would descend in the evening.

The hooliganism by Congress goons at Vidyapeetha in Bengaluru y’day started immediately after someone on stage said ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ & ‘Vande Mataram’. “How can you talk about desha & Bharat Mata in a temple?” they demanded. Can it get more ridiculous than this? — Sahana Singh (@singhsahana) April 8, 2019
