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.

Why not media will not cover, BJP bought almost all media. Hence, usually media is favouring BJP, particularly Zee TV, Aaj Tak, Republic TV, TV18 many more.

Why mr.shah visit temples and perform poojas only in election time.it looks like begging pardon before doing crime.Karnataka is educational hub your lies,cheates,communal agenda will not work may you escape as you done in kerala.

Shah and Modi focusing more in Karnataka and Kerala. In karnataka BJP wants to regain, and in kerala they want to root

Keep trying mr. Shah.. But you cant change kannadigas' mind.

BJP's history shows that. 20 years ago BJP have only 1 seat in Karnataka. Now see the scenario.

@Prasad. True. But people want communal things... People need controversy... Only communal parties have future in India.

Media should not cover such programmes. They are coming to deliver fake promises and HATRED SPEECH

Irked by Hegde remarks against Gandhi, BJP asks him to take 'remedial' measures

News Network

February 3,2020

New Delhi, Feb 3: BJP MP Anantkumar Hegde's swipe at Mahatma Gandhi has irked the top party leadership and he may be forced to apologise, party sources said on Monday.

A senior BJP leader said the Karnataka leader's comments were "condemnable" and the party leadership is upset with him.

"The party has conveyed its displeasure to him and asked him to take remedial measure. Any insult to Mahatma Gandhi is unacceptable," he said.

Hegde, a former Union minister, reportedly claimed at an event in Bangaluru that the entire freedom movement was staged with the consent and support of the British, and the independence movement led by Gandhi was a "drama".

He also wondered why the Father of the Nation was called 'Mahatma' (a great soul).

The party leader said the Lok Sabha MP is a "disciplined" member of the party and will do what he has been asked to.

Hegde, known for hardline Hindutva leanings, has a history of making controversial remarks.

Comments

This man and some others like him have reached the peak of their madness.

They will not change their attitude, as they know that nobody can do any harm to them.

Therefore they will listen only to dire action what they deserve per the penal code. If required put him behind bars.

Dont harm them more, see their families.

Karnataka government should give account of money spent on migrants, food kits: Shivakumar

News Network

July 22,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 22: Karnataka Congress president DK Shivakumar on Tuesday said that the state government should give details of the amount it spent on migrants and labourers during the coronavirus crisis if it is transparent.

"The image of Karnataka has come to a very rotten position. We all know that Karnataka has failed in sorting out the problem. Let them (the state government) tell what has been the amount spent on the labour, migrants, food kits on the health department. We want an account (of the expenditure) if they are so transparent," Shivakumar said.

He said that the state government should have approached the hospitals for treating COVID-19 patients and if any hospital refused, a message should have been given that the government would take it over.

He also accused the state government of corruption.
