Home Minister G. Parameshwara had become the target of the Opposition for not only protecting the law and order situation in the State, but also for taking decisive steps to curb moral policing, said Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) spokesperson H.A. Venkatesh.
Mr. Venkatesh, who participated in a programme organised to celebrate Dr. Parameshwara’s birthday on Sunday by offering special puja at Kote Anjaneya Swamy Temple in front of Mysuru palace and distributed sweets, said the Opposition leaders were needlessly targeting the Home Minister and “blowing small issues out of proportion”.
Dr. Parameshwara, who had ably handled several portfolios earlier, had ensured that there was no threat to law order in the State ever since the Congress came to power. He had become the Home Minister for the third time.
