This bus stand is built on the Mysore-Ooty road.
A statement by Karnataka BJP MP Pratap Simha has stirred controversy. He has threatened to bulldoze a bus stand in Mysore. Actually this bus stand is built on Mysore-Ooty road. There are three domes on its roof, due to which it looks like a mosque from a distance.
If not broken in 4 days, I will demolish it myself – MP Simha
The MP from Mysuru made the remarks while speaking at an event titled ‘Tipu Nijakansugalu’ (True Dreams of Tipu) in Mysuru on Sunday. MP Pratap said, ‘Had seen this bus stand on social media. It has 3 domes, a large one in the center and smaller domes adjacent to it. It is only a mosque. I have asked the engineers to demolish the structure in three-four days. If they don’t do this, I will myself bring a JCB and break it.
Pratap Simha is a BJP MP from Mysore since 2014.
Question of Congress- Will you demolish the government office with dome?
On the other hand, the Congress has also jumped into the controversy that arose after the statement of the BJP MP. Karnataka Congress chief Salim Ahmed strongly targeted the MP’s statement. He has said that this statement of Mysore MP is foolish. Pratap Simha is an MP, he should know what he is speaking. Will he also demolish government offices that have domes?” Let them answer it first. People are fed up with this government as there has been no development.”
