Sullia: Miscreants tear banners of Sri Rama; probe on

A banner featuring an image of Sri Rama was maliciously torn off near the private bus stand Sullia. The banner was installed in anticipation of the upcoming Sullia Jatrotsava, Ayodhya Sri Ram Mandir inauguartion, and the Silver Jubilee celebrations of the Sullia Taluk Auto Rickshaw Drivers Association BMS.

Expressing their condemnation, MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and MLA Bhagirathi Murulya voiced their concerns over the incident. MP Nalin Kumar Kateel contacted the District Superintendent of Police, urging the swift arrest of the culprits. MLA Bhagirathi Murulya communicated with the circle inspectors, emphasizing the need to curb any forces attempting to disrupt societal peace. Both leaders demanded the immediate identification and arrest of the individuals involved in the banner tearing incident.
