Name sake muslim candidates are bribed by anti social and antial religious party only to divide votes of Muslims and make gain to particular communaal party.  Shame on these muslim candidates.   they are stabbing their own people for the sake of position and money.  I think they have no fear of Almighty God.  Money and power is their God.  Shame on you.   You are supporting Iblees.   Why dont you join them and accept their belief.   Dont try to be MIr Qasim and Mir Jafar who betrayer Indians and collaborated swith British.  I request all the Votes not to cast a single vote to these Muslims candidates who are supporting communaal party.  MEP is a branch of BJP and nothing else.   MEP leader has close relation with BJP leaders.   BJP is forecasting her as a Goddess who is distributing cash to poors only to fool them.   She is spreading Fitna of Dajjal and we should be careful about it.

Bengaluru, Mar 2: Karnataka Minister BC Patil on Monday repeated his earlier statements that he will approach the Centre to bring a law to "shoot at sight" anyone who raises anti-India slogans.

"I am not going back on my statement as I have not said anything wrong. I had said that I will ask the central government to bring a law to shoot at sight those who shout slogans against India. Nowadays it has become a fashion for some youths to get popularity this way which spoils the country and patriotism," Patil told reporters here.

"There is nothing wrong in asking for a law. I have not said that I will myself shoot someone who shouts slogans against India. If the same thing happens in Pakistan, they will be beheaded. But we are not so brutal, we book a case and send them to judicial custody," he added.

Patil also said that there was no need for holding discussions over the amended Citizenship Act, but added that the ruling BJP will defend it if the opposition raises a stir in the state Assembly.

The budget session of the Karnataka Assembly began on Monday.

Mangaluru, Mar 9: A person who arrived at the airport in Mangaluru from Dubai and was admitted to the isolation ward of a hospital with symptoms of coronavirus has gone missing, sources said.

The patient, who arrived on Sunday, was shifted to the district Wenlock hospital with a high fever and a few symptoms of coronavirus.

He reportedly argued with the hospital staff late in the night that he had not contracted the virus and left the hospital saying he will take treatment in a private hospital.

The hospital health officer called up the police and a high alert has been sounded in coastal districts to locate the person who has 'escaped' from the hospital.

Dakshina Kannada district health officer Sikandar Pasha had earlier said the patient will be kept under observation for 24 hours and will be discharged after routine tests.

The district health department on Monday lodged a complaint with the Mangaluru police station and investigation is on.
