Hassan, Aug 11: Rubbishing the rumours about Janata Dal-Secular MLAs accepting Bharatiya Janata Party’s offer in the state as baseless, Public Works Minister H D Revanna has claimed that around 20 BJP MLAs are ready to leave the party to join the JD(S).

Speaking to media persons here yesterday he said: “Nobody from JD-S will join the BJP. I too have heard about efforts from the BJP to woo MLAs. But they will not succeed. In fact, more than 20 MLAs are in touch with us, but we have told them to remain with the BJP,” he said.

Reacting to BJP State president B.S. Yeddyurappa’s statement that Mr. Revanna was “super CM”, he said he had no wish to react to such statements. “Those with no work tweet such comments. I would not wish to react to them. Let the BJP leaders convince the Centreand waive farm loans totally,” he said.

Davanagere, Jan 9: Residents of SVR colony of Channagiri Taluq here on Thursday built a temple in the memory of a male monkey, who died here 'unexpectedly'.

A group of monkeys entered the SVR colony around three months back. The monkeys have never disturbed anybody in the area and they used to play with children living in the colony.

Locals said that the monkeys are very obedient to them.

Unfortunately, one of the monkeys died suddenly on Wednesday, causing distress among people who were very fond of him.

Showing their love for the deceased monkey, locals performed his final rite according to Hindu tradition.

Later, the residents approached the president of the village Panchayat to allot funds to build a temple in the monkey's memory.

The construction of the temple has already begun in the area at the same place where the monkey's funeral was conducted.
