Karnataka - Bangalore   

They have their beef

BANGALORE: Members of the Karnataka Dalit Sangharsh Samiti, on Thursday, marked the 120th birth anniversary of B.R. Ambedkar by organising a motorcycle rally and by distributing beef biryani to criticise the State Government's order of banning sale of meat on the occasion of Ambedkar Jayanti.

Speaking on the occasion, samiti president N. Murthy said the Bharatiya Janata Party Government was trying to Brahminise Ambedkar and this had deprived many from their daily food.
