Earlier, the opposition leader Siddaramaiah accused the bill as a “hidden agenda for RSS” because the origin of the bill was a petition from people connected with RSS in 2009. Mr. Eshwarappa accused Congress President Sonia Gandhi of being brought before the Cabinet. “If you (Mr. Siddaramaiah) try to bring it, you will be removed.” At the same time, the minister said: “We will protect the Dharma. No matter who gets in the way, we will cut it to pieces.” As the House of Representatives fell into chaos, the chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said: “RSS is committed to taking action against forced conversion. This is an open secret. When you accused RSS of promoting it, why did you [Congress] prepare a draft bill in 2016? You are a party to it ( bill).”
