Reacting to Mohapatra’s remarks, Bramhagiri MLA Sanjay Dasburma said role of the real persons behind the current scenario could be known if information from ground-zero level were collected. Welcoming any inquiry into the matter Dasburma said it was also the responsibility of the opposition party to help pacify the current situation.
