Bengaluru: Days after chief minister BS Yediyurappa ordered setting up the Maratha Development Authority and earmarking Rs 50 crore for it, some pro-Kannada organizations called for a Karnataka Bandh on December 5 against the decision.
The organizations have dubbed Yediyurappa decision as anti-Karnataka.
Pro-Kannada activists Praveen Kumar Shetty and Vatal Nagaraj also said that BJP government is doing cheap politics with an eye on the upcoming bypolls at the cost of Kannadigas.
“Marathas celebrate Kannada Rajyotsava as a black day in Belagavi and other districts. If the government doesn’t withdraw the order, we’ll observe a statewide bandh on December 5,’’ the activists said
