Anantkumar Hegde attacks IAS officer Senthil, asks him to go

BJP leader Anantkumar Hegde, known for making contversial remarks, has dubbed as an "act of arrogance" the resignation by Karnataka IAS officer Sasikanth Senthil after criticising the union government, and asked him to go to Pakistan.

In a video message on Twitter, the former union minister said there cannot be any "act of treason" bigger than an IAS officer questioning the decision taken by the Centre and the Parliament on a majority basis.

Senthil had resigned from the Indian Administrative Services on September 6, telling 'friends' in a letter that the "fundamental building blocks of democracy are being compromised in an unprecedented manner."
Instead of destroying the country, he should go there and continue his struggle against the country and government."
