Mangaluru, Feb 8: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah will arrive in coastal Karnataka in the third week of February wherein he is scheduled to visit temples, mutts and meet religious and community leaders among others, party sources said.

Though the intention behind the two-day Dakshina Kannada and Udupi tour from February 18 is poll preparation, he is expected to spend more time with religious and community leaders rather than his party leaders.

According to sources, Shah will arrive at Mangaluru Airport on February 18 night and stay in Dharmasthala. After offering pooja at Sri Manjunatheshwara temple he would hold talks with Dharmadhikari D Veerendra Heggade.

The next day Shah would visit Sri Krishna Mutt in Udupi and offer special pooja. He is expected to hold talks with the Pejawar Mutt seer Vishwesha Tirtha Swami and Paryaya Palimaru Mutt seer Vidyadheesha Tirtha Swami. 

He is also expected to visit Subrahmanya temple and offer pooja. After talks with religious heads and seers in the temple, he will also take part in a party meeting. Sources said that Shah may visit coastal Karnataka once again in March.

Shivamogga, Aug 9: Minister of State for Railways Suresh Angadi on Saturday virtually inaugurated Malgudi Museum at Arasalu in Karantaka's Shivamogga.

The old station building at Arasalu has been converted into museum.
BJP MP from Shivamogga BY Raghavendra said that the old station building at Arasalu has been renovated keeping with 'Malgudi' theme in mind.

"It is a tribute to the makers of the popular television serial 'Malgudi Days' as the station features predominantly in the episodes which broadcast on Doordarshan in the 1980s," he said.

The museum has been designed by a famous artist John Devraj, who was the part of the serial Malgudi Days. The Mysore Divisional Railway funded the museum.

"The approach road and station area wear a new transformed look. The innovative idea of having a tea-shop in a narrow gauge coach at Arasalu station adds charm to the green surroundings," the MP said.

"Popular and internationally acclaimed serial Malgudi Days was shot here in Arasalu. The SWR Mysore division manager Aparna Garg helped to transform the station to fictional village Malgudi," he added.

The museum is about 30 km from Shivamogga city. It has steam engines and bogies besides collections of photographs hanging on the wall taken during the time of shooting for Malgudi Days.

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who reached the national capital on Thursday, said he will discuss the much-awaited Ministry expansion with the BJP high command.

"It's been long that I visited Delhi. I will meet the party national president J P Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah and take their suggestions on the cabinet expansion," Yediyurappa told reporters.

The chief minister said he will also call on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and discuss about development issues related to Karnataka.

Yediyurappa has been anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants.

Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in cabinet expansion, alleging that he was weak and that the administration had collapsed.

As the chief minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the chief minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant.
