Mangaluru: District in-charge minister Ramanath Rai said that he is greatful to the Muslim community for supporting him all these years. He gave credit to the community for electing him in his constituency for six consecutive times.
Rai said that he is heavily indebted to the Muslim community for their faith in him.
Karnataka Beary Academy held Beary Cultural Festival in Town Hall, Mangaluru on December 26. Minister Ramanath Rai said in his speech during this function that Muslim community is responsible for him to win six times with the mercy of Allah.
“If the Muslim community had supported only the candidate of their community, I would have been a former MLA by now. The community has elected me to Vidhana Sabha without considering religious boundaries. Several people have spread propaganda against me but I am happy with that propaganda. Nobody says that I am helping only Bunts and that I am pro-religion. Nobody says that I am a fanatic either. There is an allegation that I love minorities. But I do not accept that allegation,” Rai said in his speech.
Rai’s statements went viral in social media and some of the Hindu community members have targeted over these.
