Lingayat community won't be divided: Amit Shah

BJP president Amit Shah has promised the Veerashaiva community that the Union government will not accepting the Karnataka government's recommendation to grant a separate religion status to the Lingayats and Veerashaiva-Lingayats [believers of Basava Tatva]. On Tuesday he said that many have expressed concern over Siddaramaiah government’s resolution on Veershaiva-Lingayat community. This is nothing but a conspiracy to mislead people before the elections and stopping BS Yeddyurappa from becoming the CM. We will not let this happen.
