Calling for a ban on Popular Front of India (PFI) and the Karnataka Forum for Dignity (KFD), Mysuru MP Pratap Simha on Sunday accused the two outfits of fomenting trouble in the State.
He alleged that the two groups were also involved in the K.G. Halli and D.J. Halli riots in Bengaluru and the Government should ban the organisations to curb their activities. He said they should have been banned soon after the Bengaluru violence and accused them of provoking and instigating the student community in Karnataka to foment trouble on the hijab issue.
Mr. Simha said the two organisations with their origins in Kerala had entered the coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi and had spread their influence to create disturbance across the State and should be banned.
