Kerala govt harassing Sabarimala devotees in the name of SC order
Palakkad, Feb 22 (IBNS): BJP president Amit Shah on Friday said the Kerala government was harassing devotees at Sabarimala in the name of protecting the Supreme Court order.
Speaking at a rally here, Shah said: "More than 2,000 Sabarimala devotees are in jail and over 30,000 have been booked under false cases. All this is in the name of the Supreme Court order.”
The way Pinarayi govt is doing atrocities on Ayyappa devotees is very shameful. More than 2000 pilgrims of Sabarimala is still in Jail. CPI(M) will get the befitting reply by the people of Kerala for this sin. pic.twitter.com/SoeSlcyWrc
