Bengaluru: A Twitter campaign demanding resignation of home minister Basavaraj Bommai was trending on Wednesday in the backdrop of the row over the arrest and subsequent ill-treatment meted out to CRPF commando Sachin Sawant in Belagavi.
The campaign, #ResignHMBommai has garnered over 27k tweets as of Wednesday night.
Reacting to a news update, stating that the state government is likely to withdraw the case against the Cobra Commando, Yuva Brigade founder and social activist Chakravarty Sulibele said that after this kind of brutal assault withdrawing the case is definitely not enough. Take resignation of HM or suspend SP, Belagavi, he tweeted.

Sharing images of bruises in the commando’s buttocks in a tweet, Sulibele said, “The issue of Cobra commando could have been solved easily by SP or the local leaders or finally by Home minister at least. But looks (like) total incompetence. Time to #ResignHMBommai or take the action immediately. @BSBommai.”
