Hubballi: Member of Veerashaiva-Lingayat Samaj on Thursday gathered in front of the Hubballi Tahsildar office to protest the attack on Humnabad Tahsildar Pradeep Kumar Hiremath.
The protesters dub attacks against Hirar in the Bidar ‘intelligence’ district.
“Those who attacked Tahsildar had to be brought to the book, and they had to spend hard, considering they attacked a government servant.
The authorities must act after a hurry to arrest those responsible,” said the protesters.
The protesters also urged the government to recognize the incident, and ensure that employees are offered adequate security.
Quoting a few examples where government employees were attacked recently, the protesters advised the state to take steps to prevent similar incidents in the future.
“The court should not provide guarantees to those involved in this case,” said the protesters.
They warn of launching state agitation if the government failed to follow up on those involved in the attack.
Bangaresh Hiratha, Rajeshekar Menacikai, Mohan Hiremane, and the others were present.
