Hariprasad's remarks carry no weight, says Chalavadi Narayanaswamy

Bengaluru, Sept 28 (UNI) Karnataka Legislative Council Opposition Leader Chalavadi Narayanaswamy on Monday hit back at KPCC president B.K. Hariprasad over his remarks against the RSS and BJP, saying there was no question of driving anyone out of Bengaluru and questioning the Congress leader's credibility.
Responding to reporters here, Narayanaswamy said the RSS volunteers carry sticks as part of their uniform during route marches and alleged that the organisation had neither deceived nor wronged anyone with them in its 100-year history.
"There was a time when people used to roam around carrying swords. Can anyone drive anybody out of Bengaluru now?" he asked in a sarcastic reference to Hariprasad's remarks.
