Kundapur, Oct 21: “Byndoor is neither in Pakistan nor in Afghanistan. People of Kundapur can speak against injustice anywhere. MLA Sukumar Shetty does not own Byndoor constituency. The constitution has given me the right to speak against injustice and question the atrocities against women,” thundered Congress youth leader Vikas Hegde. He was referring to the statement by MLA B M Sukumar Shetty that people of Kundapur give speeches here. He was speaking at a protest meeting in Siddapur on Wednesday against Byndoor MLA over the shifting of Vandse self help tailoring training centre.

“I have already spoken in the previous protests about irregularities, how the MLA and his battalion harass the contractors and the way commission business takes place. I am not afraid to speak the truth even after this. I am not going to speak about Umesh Kalgedde who has criticized my name. The prime minister is politicizing uttering my name as ‘Vikas’. But the Byndoor MLA is not interested in ‘Sab Ka Sath, Sabka Vikas’. He is only interested in his Vikas. But despite having the name ‘Sukumar’ you are acting like children. Your mind has not grown. You are not interested in the poor and the downtrodden.

“Prime minister Modi called for ‘Atma Nirbhar’ India. But BJP MLA in Vandse threw to the streets more than 70 women who were becoming self-reliant. The MLA said that I am a monk in speech. But a monk has his own stature and maturity. Nobody will respect me if I give speeches wearing chains,” he said.

Mine is not ‘do number’ business or illegal business. The irregularities here are taking place as the MLA does not have any knowledge of his duties and the way to respond to ordinary people.

"Sukumar Shetty has given a statement that I am an agent of Vidhana Soudha, as he wants to stop the protests and give political colour to them. The protests for the women will intensify further.

Congress leader Sampigedi Sanjiva Shetty, taluk panchayat member Vasudev Pai, Pradeep Kumar Shetty Gudibettu, Sharath Kumar Shetty Balikere, Uday Kumar Shetty, Prasanna Kumar, Santhosh Shetty Baladi, youth leader Sudarshan, Dinesh Hallihole and others were present.
