Amit Shah calls UB City assault victim a ‘BJP worker’, says cops soft on minority goons

Mangaluru, Feb 20: BJP supremo Amit Shah, who is touring coastal Karnataka as part of the Navashakti Yatra, on Tuesday added UB City assault victim to the list of BJP workers attacked by Congress in the state during Siddaramaiah rule.

Vidwath, an MBA graduate and son of a businessman was on Saturday night thrashed by Shantinagar Congress MLA NA Haris’ son Mohammed Nalapad and others at Farzi Café in Bengaluru’s UB City over a trivial issue. Sons of many senior BJP leaders were mute spectators for the attack. Family sources said that Vidwath, who recently returned from Singapore, was not part of any political outfits.

However, speaking to reporters in Dakshina Kannada, Amit Shah referred to Vidwath as a BJP worker. “The BJP workers are being attacked by goons of Congress across Karnataka. Vidwath is a latest victim of Congress’ hooliganism,” he claimed.

Accusing the Karnataka police of going soft on goons belonging to Congress and minority community, Shah said that Bengaluru police had delayed registering the case not just because Mohammed Haris was a Congress MLA's son, but also because he belonged to a minority community.

Bengaluru, Jun 11: Within hours after claiming that it has decided to prohibit schools from schools from conducting online classes till Class 7, the Karnataka government has taken a U-turn and said that currently than ban is only till Class 5.

“Karnataka Govt has decided to stop all online classes for LKG, UKG & classes up to 5th std. To extend this up to 7th std is only a suggestion from few cabinet ministers as expressed in an informal discussion and NOT a decision,” tweeted Prime and Secondary Minister Suresh Kumar.

Law Minister J C Madhuswamy earlier today had stated that the decision to ban online classes till 7th standard was taken by the government.  "All of us were of the opinion that there were challenges faced by students studying in rural areas. Hence, we urged the government to extend the ban on online classes till 7 standard," he said
