He said the BJP had created unnecessary and fake rumours earlier about former chief minister Siddaramaiah visiting the temple after consuming meat. "BJP seems to be fine with its own members visiting temple after eating fish and meat," he said.</p>.<p>Reacting to it, Udupi MLA Raghupathi Bhat said that Congress's allegation is far from the truth.
