The daughter of a legislator (Kerala MLA C H Kunjambu) was abducted by some rogue elements and beaten for speaking with a guy. This is shameful in itself and the media has rightly raised cries of talibanization of Karnataka. But what takes the cake is the remark from the state home minister, as TOI reports:
Karnataka home minister V S Acharya, instead of taking action, has done something that’s bound to infuriate everyone further: he has told the girl’s father, Kerala MLA C H Kunjambu: “You should take care of your children. What can we do if some goonda elements do it?”
Be grateful daughter is back: Minister to MLA.
Indeed what can a nincompoop of a minister do if not ensure that the law of the land is followed. The attackers should be taken to the court and given exemplary punishment. The policemen should ensure the safety of all its citizens. As the home minister, it is the responsibility of Mr. Acharya. If he feels he can’t do anything he should step down, or be thrown out. As the union home minister was after Mumbai attacks. Who elects such idiots?!
