Former MP R. Dhruvanarayan came down heavily on BJP leaders for opposing the proposed statue of Jesus Christ in Kapalabetta in Kanakapura Assembly constituency. Addressing a press conference in Mysuru on Saturday, he said the BJP leaders had displayed the “poison in their hearts” by issuing statements opposing the construction of statue of Jesus Christ in Kapalabetta. The former MP sought to remind BJP leaders that most of them had studied in institutions set up by Christian missionaries. “Can the BJP leaders fall so low? After keeping the Muslims out of Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the BJP leaders are showing their narrow-mindedness by opposing Jesus Christ’s statue”, he said.
