SDPI seeks Home Minister’s resignation

Ashraf M., leader of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), on Friday sought the resignation of Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai for suddenly declaring Aditya Rao, involved in planting a bomb at the Mangaluru airport, as a mentally ill person, which he termed, was a part of well thought-out conspiracy.

Addressing presspersons here, Mr. Ashraf said that similar statements had been made by other Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, which was unfortunate.
