Any political party that speaks ill of Lingayats will be taught a lesson, Prabhakar Kore, BJP leader and former Rajya Sabha member, said on Saturday.
“I do not know if B.L. Santhosh, BJP national organising secretary, has said that the BJP would not need the support of Lingayats to win polls. I do not think such a learned man will make such a statement. However, if any party or any leader speaks ill of Lingayats and takes them for granted, then, the community will teach them a lesson,” he told journalists at his home in Ankali near Chikkodi.
