Meanwhile, Mithun’s statement against Nalin’s failure to solve Surathkal NITK tollgate problem has gone viral on social media. During the protest, Mithun had said that instead of holding protest against the tollgate, the MP should be “Slapped with footwear” for failing to solve the problem.

BJP leader Ishwar Kateel spoke on the issue and blamed Congress to be responsible for the problem by stating that Congress government and Oscar Fernandes were instrumental in setting up the tollgate. Recalling that BJP had opposed the idea of installing tollgate at Panambur, Ishwar said that the Congress took interest in installing the same at Surathkal.  BJP had participated in protests against the tollgate, he said.
