This is a high-security zone.” He further wrote, “The government bans activities like RSS’s ‘Path Sanchalan’ but turns a blind eye to such incidents. This is a matter of serious security concern.”

How is this even allowed inside the T2 Terminal of Bengaluru International Airport?
Honorable Chief Minister @siddaramaiah and minister @PriyankKharge do you approve of this?

Did these individuals obtain prior permission to offer Namaz in a high-security airport zone?
