The BJP's youth wing Yuva Morcha today held a march in the city today raising the slogan of "anti-nationals quit India."
Later, addressing a function organised by Mangaluru Rashtra Jagruti Samiti at the town hall here, national media co-convenor of BJP Yuva Morcha Nupur Sharma, who had contestedunsuccessfully against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal last year, strongly criticised opposition leaders for takingup the Jawaharlal Nehru University issue for political gains.
She said "self- proclaimed anti-nationals should be thrown out of the country. Such activities were going on in the JNU for the last 15 years and the situation changed after the NDA government came to power," she claimed.
Afzal Guru was hanged in connection with the attack on the Parliament on February 9, 2013 and his death was being observed as Martyr's Day in JNU for the last three years.
He was a terrorist who was given the death penalty by the Supreme Court.
The soldiers of India who had sacrificed their lives for the nation to protect us were the only citizens to be considered as martyrs, she said.
S M Asha, wife of soldier Nagesh who died in the Siachen avalanche recently, was present at the function.
