Hubballi, Dec 25: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has criticised Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde’s statement against secularism and values of Indian constitution. 

Responding to the queries of media persons here on Monday CM said described Hegde as a 'Manuvadi' who lacked respect for the Constitution. "He does not know the political and parliamentary language," Siddaramaiah said.

"Hegde is uncultured. He doesn't know parliamentary or politically-correct language. He is unaware of the country's social systems, and has no respect for the Constitution," said Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

"He (Hegde) speaks anti-secular language. It is impossible to turn a secular country like India into a Hindu Rashtra," Siddaramaiah said.

"In the Constitution, we have said that a secular country will be built. But Hegde speaks against secularists and about changing the Constitution. People of this country have accepted the Constitution, and it cannot be changed as per the wish of casteist persons. People of all religions are Indians and 'Hindu Rashtra' cannot be built, just by glorifying one religion,” he said.

Its a classic irony....

If dalits and OBCs can speak for reservation, why should the upper castes who are victims of reservation not speak against it. This is India. Right to freedom of expression is everyone's fundamental right, not just of dalits

Bengaluru, Apr 11: Karnataka Library Department’s mobile application, which is said to be the first of its kind initiative in the country has seen an exponential growth in downloads during the COVID-19 lockdown, a senior Minister said on Friday. The main reason that the application is growing is due to the heavy students demand as schools and colleges are closed during the 21-day nationwide lockdown.

Students are relying on online material for their studies as they can’t step out of the house and risk being infected.

The Library Department's efforts to keep readers active through the lockdown time, by prompting them to utilise its e-initiatives is paying off, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Suresh Kumar said.

"The app is seeing exponential increase in downloads since its launch. As many as 16,500 people have taken it; while ten thousand people have downloaded it during this brief lock down time itself," he said.

E-library mobile app was released by the library department on February 26.

There are over one lakh e-books available on department's digital platform ranging from arts, humanity, school curriculum, competitive exams and self help to classic novels - all for free for the readers.

"Its needless to say, the variety of attractive content that is available in the app is creating all the buzz among the public. Not just the books, the app contains over 600 educational videos too," the Minister said in a statement.

Considering that over 16,500 readers have downloaded the app since its launch a couple of months back, its high time, we see this domain as an opportunity for growth, he said, and stressed on the need for better adaptability approaches to the changing times.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Congress is confused on the Ram Mandir issue and in dilemma to take a firm stand fearing loss of Muslim or Hindu votes, according to BJP leader and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

"Congress opposed BJP's stand on constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodya, it called Lord Ram fictional and even decided to break the Ramsetu. Now, Congressmen are speaking the other way. Congress cannot think beyond vote bank politics which is in its DNA itself. Congressmen think that they are born to be in power," he said while speaking to media persons. 

He said that BJP is all for constructing a grand Ram Mandir peacefully and legally, due to its conviction and not for politics. Same was the case with the revocation of Article 370 for Jammu & Kashmir. Anti-national activities have comparatively come down now. 

Some people do not want everything going smoothly in the country, and Congress and Asaduddin Owaisi are among them, Joshi opined, adding that the Congress is merely frustrated.
