Bengaluru, July 07, 2022 (PPI-OT):Another Hindutva leader, Keshav Murthy, has committed blasphemy, this time, of the Holy Quran in the Indian state of Karnataka. Keshav Murthy is the state convener of an extremist organization called Hindu Jagaran Vedike.
In a speech this week – when some Hindu activists were protesting the killing of tailor Kanhaiya Lal in Udaipur, Rajasthan Keshav Murthy said, “The Quran says kill people. So, don’t you think those who read the Quran will follow the same? Those who read the Quran are terrorists.”
Police in Kolar in Karnataka have registered a case against him and others for making derogatory statements against the Quran and Muslims. The complaint was lodged by Zameer Ahamed, president of the organisation Anjuman-e-Islamia. The case against Keshav Murthy has been registered under Indian Penal Code.
