Read on&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>A bus with a picture on Jinnah? How would you react? When residents spotted a bus with the picture of Mohammad Ali Jinnah plying on Bengaluru roads, the reactions were varied.

In a second Facebook post, he wrote, &#8220;Democracy travels&#8221; is free From Jinnah. The Owner has apologised &amp; removed the photo &amp; confirmed by sending this photo. He didn&#8217;t even know what they had done with the sus and who Jinnah Was. The Bus Was Hired By A Malayalam Movie Crew For Shooting.&#8221; He also called for the nationalists to be united against the anti-nationals.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"http:\/\/m.timesofindia.com\/city\/bengaluru\/right-wing-activists-take-a-dig-at-democracy-in-bengaluru\/articleshow\/59583131.cms?utm_source=toimobile&amp;utm_medium=Sms&amp;utm_campaign=referral\">reported by Times of India<\/a>, fearing backlash, the owner of the bus has removed the image.<\/p>\n<p>Nationalist pride is fragile. Freeing a bus called, &#8220;Democracy travels&#8221; which was a movie prop, from Jinnah is a victory for them. The Postcard contributor who used the picture to malign the Karnataka government has not deleted his post even after learning that truth about the bus. Nor has the one who called for lynching the bus owner. The bus owner could be under a real threat from such a call. We hope Bengaluru police have taken note of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;How many of you are campaigning against it and will Pledge to Lynch this Owner inside that Bus and Burn it?&#8221; This was the violent reaction of Abhishek Singh, a contributor at Postcard News, when he saw pictures of a bus on Bengaluru road with an image of Mohammad Ali Jinnah.
