“NIA probe must to expose conspiracy in Dharmasthala case”.
Bengaluru:Satyameva Jayate.Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah.In the Dharmasthala case,the state government must hand over the investigation to the NIA to reveal who is behind the conspiracy and those named by Maskman Chinnayya must be arrested and interrogated;otherwise, people may conclude that the state government itself is part of the conspiracy.
To avoid this,the investigation must be handed over to the NIA,demanded former Chief Minister and MP Basavaraj Bommai.
In a post on X,he said that in the Dharmasthala matter, the SIT is doing at the end what should have been done at the beginning.
Without verifying the credibility of the complainant,the merit of the complaint,and the supporting evidence,the SIT was formed and began digging blindly,like starting work in darkness.
It is clear,he stated,that the purpose of forming the SIT and the motives of certain people within it were to bring disrepute to Dharmasthala,create suspicion,and tarnish its image.
Believing that such a narrative would receive support from the state government,they exerted pressure,and in response,the government constituted the SIT.
The fact that competent police officers within the SIT were not given complete freedom is evident from the way the investigation has proceeded.
At one stage, when the media was revealing details of every excavation, the moral courage of the government eroded, and it was forced to face widespread public outrage.
Realising the strength of the BJP’s movement, the government altered its objective and the course of the probe, and only now has the real investigation begun.
In other related cases,since the Dakshina Kannada police conducted proper investigations and brought out the truth, the SIT too has had no choice but to move towards uncovering the truth, he said.
Looking at how international media has given publicity to the matter, it is clear that instead of controlling the smear campaign against Dharmasthala,the government has failed to curb it.
Therefore,there is no confidence that the SIT probe will bring out the truth.To reveal who is really behind this conspiracy, the state government must hand over the case to the NIA and arrest and interrogate those named by Mushukudari Chinnayya. (Masked man Chinnaiah).
If this is not done, people may conclude that the state government itself is part of the conspiracy.To prevent this, the investigation must be handed over to the NIA, he demanded.
