Sanjay Raut a traitor, will initiate legal action against him: Basavaraj Bommai

Belagavi : Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Thursday came down heavily on Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) leader Sanjay Raut and called him a traitor.
The Chief Minister’s outburst was against Raut’s statement that he will enter Karnataka like China entered India.
He also warned legal action against Raut for his provocative statement.
Amid the simmering border dispute between Maharashtra and Karnataka, Raut on Wednesday stoked a controversy, saying they will enter the neighbouring southern state the way China has “invaded” Indian territory.
“The way China has invaded (Indian territory), we will do the same in Karnataka. We do not need anyone’s permission to do so,” Raut told reporters in Delhi.
“I will call him China Agent. Sanjay Raut is a China agent. He is a traitor. Sanjay Raut is a Desha Drohi. In this federal system if someone says he will illegally enter another state means this is an attempt to destroy the federal system, unity and integrity of this country,” Bommai said in the Karnataka Assembly as he moved a resolution condemning the border dispute.
