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.

Mangaluru, Jan 15: Popular Front of India leader Mohammed Saqib came down heavily on Mangaluru City Police Commissioner Dr P S Harsha for justifying the Dec 19 firing which claimed two Muslim lives in the city.  

He was addressing a mammoth crowd of around two lakh people, mostly Muslims, who had gathered at Shah Garden at Adyar in Mangaluru today to register their protest against CAA, NRP, NRC, besides police atrocities on Muslims in Mangaluru.

Criticising the way the commissioner handled the situation on December 19, he said the people have all the right to agitate when their citizenship is endangered. 

“Two men lost their lives. Then Commissioner started releasing misleading videos (to justify the killing),” he said questioning the top cop: “Who are you? Are you a British?” 

“What kind of doctor you are? You are a doctor in creating false stories,” he said whiling taking on the top cop for claiming that protesters had tried to storm the Mangaluru North Police Station.
