50 activists of KRV were arrested in Bangalore a few hours back as they tried to storm the house of urban development minister Shri Kumar in Bangalore.
The activists were protesting in front of the ministers house while the 40 member delegation of Belgaum city councilors were meeting him and explaining the happenings of yesterday at the corporation.
The KRV is saying that what happened yesterday is all correct and Belgaum Mayor is a Kannadiga and we are proud of it.
A privilege motion was raised in the Maharashtra assembly but was not accepted by the speaker, but he agreed to have a discussion on the same. CM Ashok Chavan of Maharashtra said that whatever happned yesterday is another way of the Karnataka govt. to pressurize Marathis in the state. Ashok Chavan will write a letter to BSY expressing his regret over the Mayors election.
Bangalore Police badly beat the KRV activists.
The Police also urged the 40 member councilors team to leave the city and go back to Belgaum as their presence can cause law and order problems.. The team has left Bangalore in the afternoon.

Hello Mr ukmad
What has the CM of maharastra got to with this, he shud look in own backyard as to whats happening rather than in others front yard. Its stupid of him even think abt writing a letter to the CM of Karnataka, doesn't he has better things to do?. So what if a Kanada speaking person becomes the Mayor. The people have elected what they think is good for the City.
Cheers
