Mangaluru, Nov 15: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah today released a booklet highlighting the achievements of Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel after being elected to the parliament for the second time in 2014. 

The book titled Modiya Hadiyalli Naalkane Varsha (Fourth Year on Modi’s Path) was released in the presence of district BJP leaders at Ocean Pearl Hotel in the city. 

There was speculation that his visit was to plan strategies for next year’s Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala.

Mr Shah, who landed at Mangaluru International Airport at around 8:30 p.m. last night arrived at the Akhil Bharatiya Karya Vibhag Pracharak Varg of the RSS at Sanghaniketan, its local headquarters at Mannagudda, late in the evening. 

Cow slaughter, Sabarimala shrine row and Ram temple are some of the issues which were reportedly discussed at a meeting in the presence of Amit Shah on last night. With the BJP sweeping the 2018 Assembly elections in six coastal and Malnad districts in Karnataka, and the party now eyeing the Sabarimala issue in the neighbouring Kerala, Mr. Shah’s visit assumed significance. 

The BJP in Kerala had launched its six-day Sabarimala Rath Yatra from neighbouring Kasaragod to Pathanamthitta on November 8. The yatra flagged off by State BJP chief B.S. Yeddyurappa and led by Kerala BJP State president P.S. Sreedharan Pillai ended on Tuesday. 

About 250 full-time RSS volunteers from Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra are participating in a ‘refresher course’, from November 11, being held under the leadership of Suresh ‘Bhaiyajji’ Joshi, sarkaryavah (national general secretary) of the RSS.

Bengaluru, Jan 6: JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy on Monday said he would not get involved in any 'wicked act' of bringing down the B S Yediyurappa-led government in Karnataka, amid claims that 15 to 20 BJP MLAs were ready to come out.

Clarifying that he would not disturb the government, the former Chief Minister said for him, the development of the state was important. "With great difficulty, you (Yediyurappa) have become Chief Minister for the fourth time, (I am) happy, I have nowhere said that I will disturb your government. Even now some people come and ask why I'm sitting silent when 15-20 people are ready to come out of BJP and why don't I make an attempt (to poach them), Kumaraswamy said. Speaking to reporters in Hassan, he sought to know why he should get entangled in that 'sludge' and he was not in a hurry.

"I will not get involved in a wicked act of removing a responsible government like Yediyurappa did. For me the development of the state is important," he said.

Though Kumaraswamy had raised questions about the longevity of the BJP government ahead of the December 5 bypolls, he had even then given clear indications that he would not attempt to pull down the administration as it would affect the development of the state.

The ruling BJP had swept the by-elections by winning 12 of the total 15 seats, helping the Yediyurappa government retain the majority in the Assembly.

With BJP winning 12 of the 15 assembly constituencies, it's numbers went up from 105 (including an independent) to 117, which is well ahead of the halfway mark of 111 in a 223-member Assembly (two seats-- Maski and R R Nagar-- are vacant due to pending litigation in the High Court).

The BJP came to power after the Kumaraswamy-led Congress-JD(S) coalition government collapsed as 17 MLAs had rebelled against the alliance leadership and resigned as legislators, to later favour the saffron party.

Gadag, Aug 1: A woman in Gadag district of Karnataka mortgaged her 'mangalsutra' to buy a television set for her children following the Karnataka government's decision to continue the classes through TV amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

A resident of Radder Naganur village, Kasturi, who is also a mother of two, purchased a television set against her 'mangalsutra' for Rs 14,000. She bought the TV after her children's school teachers asked them to attend classes via the television set.

Kasturi said, "I can not send the children to the neighbours' house every day and it was necessary for them to study. We had no other option but to buy a TV set."

She said, "Both, my husband and I are daily wage workers and during coronavirus, we do not have work or money."

"I sold my 'mangalsutra' for Rs 20,000 and bought a TV for Rs 14,000," said Kasturi while happily adding, "Now, my kids can study at home itself."

Kasturi's daughter, Surekha said, "We did not have the TV for several months but now when we have it, we will study and get a bigger 'mangalsutra' for my mother."

Amidst heightened border tensions between Indian and China, senior BJP leader and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's two year old tweet comparing his party with Communist Party of China started going viral. 

The tweet, dated 26 June, 2016 reads: "Communist Party of China & BJP have done numerous works in social field. This way, there is tremendous similarities between the two parties." (sic)

Twitterati dug up this tweet after over 20 Indian Army personnel, including a colonel, were killed in a clash with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh earlier this week.

Soon after Chouhan's tweet went viral, netizens took to the micro-blogging site and slammed BJP. One user said, "Interesting comment by Hindutva ITSELF to recognise how similar they are with China. No doubt. Both believe in Dragon Throne .... and brutal absolute control." Another user said, "No wonder the BJP & China both agree that PLA never crossed into Indian territory."
