Mr.Basavaraj Javali "The President of Belgaum Chamber of Commerce & Industries."

The issue whatever happened with MLA Shri Abhay Patil was a great insult, not to Basavaraj Javali, but it was an insult to the Industries & Trade of Karnataka. Because as a President of BCCI, representative of ASIDE project and BSSIA, I have visited MLA's office thinking that the development work will stop, as he has already called Jt.Director of DIC & other ASIDE members & threatened about the same. On 9th April the said MLA has called JD, DIC and asked him to call office bearers of Aside committee, as he came to know that we have already started Development work of Mache under Aside scheme. As I was not available on that day our Aside committee Secretary Mr.Ravindra Jeerage, along with Kagwade CEO of the project & Jt director DIC along their official went to his office in that time he had used unparlimentary, very vulgar words & said that he can close all the industries if he wants, which has been discussed in Aside committee meeting on 10th of April & condemned the same & also decided to send our member Shri Girish Maliye as he is very good friend of him to close the issue. The same matter was also discussed in our Managing Committee meeting held on 26th April 2012 & condemned the same. The said MLA didn't respond & asked Girish to bring Mr. Javali then only he want to discuss about the issue development, otherwise he will stop the work, so I have decided to go to his office on 30th April on that day Even though they assaulted on me, I thought not to bring this in press and media & make a litigation as other members are also threatened by him and not ready to talk on the issue or support. In the mean time I had been to Mysore to attend the Summit on 3rd May, every district President started asking me about news read in the paper. Finally I decided to disclose whatever happened and openly told in the meeting of all chambers meet at Hotel President at Mysore. At that time all Presidents of all chambers have condemned the act of the MLA & suggested not to keep mum as it is an issue of the Trade & Industry. Immediately I made a letter addressed to President FKCCI and Hon'ble Chief Minister of Karnataka Shri.D.V.Sadananda Gowda and presented the letter in the meeting in detail about the assault made on me. Our FKCCI President also discussed the matter with C.M. on 4th May & told me to go legally and call press meet at Belgaum to tell the truth, whatever happened on that day to Press and media. So on coming to Belgaum first I called past presidents meet & office bearers meet on 5th May & discussed about the same & decided to have press meet on 8th May, But I decided not to take legal action thinking that the development work of ASIDE may be affected. But by the evening, I got a call from concerned officers of ASIDE that if I don't ask apologize to the said MLA, & give false statement to the press, or he is going to stop the work. Finally I decided to file a FIR & filed FIR on the same day. Next day all the association members and other people started to call a general call to all associations and all parties meet, I have called the same & all people gathered in the meeting and have condemned the act of the MLA & taken decision of Belgaum Bundh on 14th May. I have never thought that there will be such a great public response will come & the people will come for morcha, it was great support from various associations & parties that has increased the moral of Chamber as well as me. I am very much thankful to the public, associations & parties for making a record morcha, which didn't happen never in the history of Belgaum as the people came on road in thousands to condemn the act made by MLA on the President of Belgaum Chamber of Commerce & Industries by showing unity & strength of the trade & industry & citizens of Belgaum that they will not tolerate the insult made by MLA.
