Congress MLC Ivan D'Souza has drawn ire from BJP leaders for remarks made during a protest in Mangaluru, where he compared the political situation in Karnataka to that of Bangladesh, warning of potential unrest if Governor Thaawar Chand Gehlot is not removed. The BJP has filed complaints against D'Souza, claiming his statements incited violence and demanded legal action under various sections of the law, including those protecting the rights of Scheduled Castes. They allege that his comments led to public disturbances, including stone-pelting. Additionally, BJP leaders have called for the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, suggesting that the Congress party is targeting the Governor due to his Dalit background. D'Souza has defended his remarks as a necessary warning against unconstitutional actions. The situation continues to escalate as local authorities consider the legal implications of the complaints lodged against D'Souza.
