There is a mafia of fanaticism behind ‘Dharmasthala conspiracy': Karnataka MLC CT Ravi
MANGALURU: There is a mafia of fanaticism behind the conspiracy against Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala. There is a conspiracy aimed at gaining mileage after faith is breached. Projecting someone as the culprit and creating public distrust even before the completion of the SIT probe into Dharmasthala mass burial cases is part of a conspiracy, said MLC C T Ravi . He was speaking to media persons at Dharmasthala during a rally organised by the BJP to extend the party's support to Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala and Dharmadhikari D Veerendra Heggade on Sunday. 'If Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has faith in the Constitution, respect for Dharmasthala, and the sentiments of devotees, he should form an SIT against the conspiracy,' said Ravi. Lauding the contributions of Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala, including the Annadana, medical aid, renovation of temples, etc., Ravi questioned whether these services were crimes. 'Targeting Dharmasthala temple, Dharmadhikari, and his family is a crime and it is part of a larger conspiracy. I would like to ask the chief minister why no action has been initiated against those who conspired to hurt the sentiments of lakhs of devotees. Let action be taken against them," he urged. The SIT probe should focus on both sides, including the background of the complainant witness, he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like People Aged 50-85 With No Life Insurance Could Get This Reassured Get Quote Undo 'Let the SIT investigate the powers that worked behind the complainant witness. The SIT has dug 18 - 20 feet in Dharmasthala. What have you found there? Didn't you realise at least now that there is a conspiracy? Those who hatched the conspiracy should be punished. Only this will satisfy the devotees of Dharmasthala," the MLC said. Stating that the BJP is not questioning the investigation, Ravi said that there is a need for a probe against those who have defamed Dharmasthala and Dharmadhikari. Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has already said that there is a 'conspiracy'. 'Do you have fear of disclosing what the conspiracy is? If you have no fear, then you have to reveal the politics and power behind the conspiracy. This is the right time to disclose the conspiracy,' Ravi said.

He said that five staff members have been appointed for all the work of preparing the food, packing food, and taking it in an auto. It costs about Rs 8,000 to 10,000 per day to prepare and serve meals to 200 people, and it costs about Rs 30 lakh to 35 lakh per year. He said that this programme has been continued for the last five years without collecting or accepting any donations from anyone, by the grace of God.
