Karnataka Bill Restricts Unauthorised Use of Public Property
The Karnataka government has approved a Public Property Bill aimed at regulating the use of public spaces by organisations. The bill proposes penalties, including jail time and fines, for unauthorised use of public property. While the government stated it has no specific institution in mind, the move has drawn attention amid speculation it could affect organisations like the RSS. The BJP has alleged the bill is an effort by the Congress to stifle the RSS.
