Prakash Raj being awarded Shivaram Karanth Award; BJP protest against it

Actor Prakash Raj was awarded Shivaram Karanth Award in Bengaluru recently, but this didn't go well with the BJP supporters who took out a protest with black flags against Prakash Raj being awarded.

The reason for BJP protesting is the comment made by Prakash Raj in which he called Yogi Adityanath as an actor.The protest was controlled by local police from spreading more.

"He is very good actor...but now a days his ideologies support the Left and that is not in line with what people think today. An actor who says he wants to return his award, should not also accept an award, this is my personal opinion," said Union Minister Gowda.
