The issue on use of loudspeaker for azan was being raked up deliberately to create unrest in society and the onus is on the Chief Minister and the Home Minister to maintain peace in the State, KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar on Monday said.
“This is the failure of the government. If it is not managed properly, there are chances of unrest in the State,” he told reporters here. He also pointed out that a delegation of leaders from the Congress had met Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and submitted a memorandum highlighting his responsibility in taking action.
Mr. Shivakumar said that the Supreme Court has already decided on the azan issue, and the police have issued notices.
