MLC Dr. Manjunath Bhandari Criticises RSS, BJP Over Children’s Training and Priyank Kharge Controversy

Mangaluru : In a strong critique of the RSS and BJP leadership, MLC Dr. Manjunath Bhandari questioned the organisation’s credibility and its approach toward children’s training programmes. Speaking at a press conference, he asked why the leaders do not provide lathi and firearm training to their own children if they truly consider such methods important.

Dr. Bhandari argued that ethical consistency demands that leaders set an example for the community. “If these methods are genuinely necessary, then their own families should adopt them first,” he said. He further criticized the BJP for targeting Minister Priyank Kharge after the latter raised concerns about RSS activities in schools and public institutions, calling the attacks on Kharge unwarranted and politically motivated.
