Mangaluru: RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat attacked the code of conduct committee and said it is a committee without any moral. He made the controversial statement while speaking on the occasion of the sixth day of fast-unto-death undertaken under the leadership of T G Rajaram Bhat demanding the arrest of culprits involved in theft of cows from Amritadhara cow shelter in Punyakotinagara, Kairangala.

Kalladka Bhat said, "Power hungry people are ruling this state worse than the Moghuls and British. The government is hell-bent on destroying the Hindu religion and culture. This fast unto death is a conflict of ideology. But the fast unto death undertaken by Rajaram Bhat should be continued till the end. This is not vote politics but fight for justice, truth and values of life."

Defending the controversial statement given by Bhat saying that the temples that are visited by minister U T Khader have to be cleansed by holding 'Brahmakalasha', he said, "What I have said is 100% true. I am ready to accept this in front of any media. It is wrong to call people who eat beef inside the temple and honour them. In order for the vote to be sacred, protection of Hindu religion has to take place."

T G Rajarama Bhat, Sri Shashikanta Mani Swamiji of Kanyana Balekodi Kashikalabhairaveshwara Shilanjan Kshethra, Gopal Kuthar and Sharan Pumpwell, leaders of VHP, Santhosh Rai Boliyar, president of BJP Mangaluru zone, Rajesh Naik Ulepadiguthu, BJP leader, Bantwal, Manju Bhandary alias Thimmappa Konde, administrative trustee of Sri Kananthoor Thodakukkinar Daivasthana, Nandaraj Shetty Pijinabail, Jagadish Alva Kuvethabail, Raviraj Hegde, Radhakrishna Adyanthaya and Rahim Uchil were present.
