Accusing the Congress-led State government of stalling pro-farmer programmes and indulging in vengeance politics, members and leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) staged a protest in Dharwad on Monday.
Staging the protest under the aegis of BJP Raita Morcha, the BJP workers staged the demonstration in front of the Deputy Commissioner’s office in Dharwad.
However, their attempt to register their protest by torching old tyres and photographs of Congress leaders led to a verbal clash between the protestors and the police.
