After N-E, it's Karnataka's turn now to finish off Congress: PM Narendra Modi

Agencies

March 4, 2018

New Delhi, Mar 4: The BJP feels the victories in the north-east, especially in Tripura, will boost its chances in Karnataka and the mood was echoed by both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party chief Amit Shah on Saturday.

Speeches of Modi and Shah during the victory celebrations at BJP headquarters here, as well as press interaction by the BJP chief, showed that they have no qualms in linking it to the upcoming polls in Karnataka. The BJP expects that it could dethrone Siddaramaiah-led Congress government riding on the latest victory and bury the setback it received in Gujarat polls. The Tripura victory would give more ammunition to the BJP to target the ruling Congress in Karnataka. In the coming days, Modi and Shah are expected to spend more time in the state.

While Modi said by June the Congress rule would be restricted to Puducherry, Shah too expressed confidence in a BJP victory in Karnataka. "I said in Puducherry earlier that the Congress is finished in North East. Now, it is the turn of Karnataka (to finish Congress in the state). I said in Punjab, the Congress chief minister does not listen to leaders in Delhi and vice versa," Modi told party workers.

The first to fire was Shah who said the "historic" results in Tripura was a signal to the Karnataka polls as well as the Lok Sabha elections. He also put Karnataka among those targets before he can say that his party has entered the golden era.

"We will definitely win Karnataka. We are confident. But, I will not say that we have entered the golden period of the party till we win Odisha, Kerala and West Bengal," Shah, who was received by a cheering crowd at the newly-built party headquarters, told a press conference in the afternoon.

Later in the evening, the salvo Shah told the crowd at the party office, "under the leadership of Narendra Modi, our 'digvijay rath' has now won the North-East and it will now enter Karnataka. The mandate is against the Congress and it has been thrown out from North-East."

Modi also focussed on Karnataka during his speech for some time as well as setting the tone for the cadres by repeatedly referred to violence against party workers in Karnataka and other states. He said the sacrifices of these workers who were murdered will not go in vain and public will vote BJP to power in Karnataka and elsewhere.

Only EVM can save BJP in Karnataka.. #BanEVM

This is what Narakendra modi is calling Development.. not the real change in people's life!

What is Achee Dinn........running election campaigns??? Show me the work on the ground Mr. Chowkidaar!!! Life of middle and lower class has gone to the dogs in the country. Despite winning state after state your party is still the biggest loser in the history of Indian politics.

BJP won Tripura to divert attention from Nirav Modi scam.... Winning Karnataka is the next diversionary tactic.

Yes, we are fed up with Muslim Goondas of Conning-ress persecuting hindhus

Good day light dream

Since he has become the PM, his only job has been elections and nothing else. No work on the ground except for some slogans and destruction of middle class.

By God you will face the consequence in this Earth.

The passion of young Ms Tabassum and Social Working of today, particularly, gives me lot of hope. It almost feels like the political class wants to bring down India while the people are so hard working and committed to nation building.

Congratulation Miss. Way to go.

PS: Media has been compromised and fake news factories churn out crap daily. Thanks CD for bringing this news to readers.

CONGRATULATIONS.

Mrs.Tabassum's service for humanity is highly commendable.She looks after HIV & AIDS effected children with compassion like mother without expecting anything in returns.

She is the alumni of JF managed Green View PU womens college at Derealakette.

She deserve for more prestigious awards even like "Padma Shri" for her selfless and sincere services for the society and the nation.

All the best.

Wanting to get a feel of death, Karnataka youth records suicide on TikTok

News Network

June 9,2020

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 24-year-old who wanted to experience the feeling of death lost his life after consuming pesticide — he recorded it all on TikTok — in Koratagere taluk of Tumakuru district on Saturday evening.

Chided by his mother for not earning money, Dhananjaya, a resident of Gouraganahalli, on Saturday evening bought pesticide from a shop and shot a 15-second TikTok video, saying, “I want to experience the feeling of what death would be like. I will try to kill myself.”

Locals rushed Dhananjaya to a nearby hospital where he breathed his last the next morning. Koratagere police registered a case of unnatural death.

According to police, Dhananjaya had in the past rammed his Bajaj Pulsar bike into a tree to ‘experience’ death but had survived with minor injuries. Villagers and family members had advised him to not to take such risks. But he continued to do so as he was obsessed with death and posted his opinion regularly on TikTok, where he had 431 followers.

He tied the knot four months ago and was running an autorickshaw on rent. However, his earnings reduced to zero during the lockdown and he wasn’t mentally stable, claimed villagers.

Investigators said Dhananjaya wanted to scare his mother with his suicide threat and wanted to ‘experience’ death. He consumed poison near a farm but later panicked thinking he would die. However, he was not in a position to ride back home. He called his friend, who visited the spot and shifted him to hospital on Saturday night, police said.
