Bengaluru, Aug 14: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah is trying to incite communal tension ahead of looming assembly polls and misusing Income Tax department to destabilise the Congress government in Karnataka, according to AICC spokesperson Dinesh Gundu Rao.

Speaking to media persons here, Rao said that Shah’s main agenda is polarisation of people on religious grounds by creating communal tension. Hence, Shah has been confidently saying that he knows how to win the Assembly elections in the state. But, Shah will not succeed in his game plan. The Congress will come back to power, he added.

The BJP chief has termed the state government as corrupt. But, he does not have moral right to talk about corruption. Many of the state BJP leaders are corrupt. The BJP is trying to defame the Congress government by misusing the I-T department. Besides, the saffron party is carrying out a misinformation campaign against the government using social media, he charged.

Rao also accused the BJP’s Vistaaraks of misleading people on the achievements of Union government led by Narendra Modi.

Vistaarks are distributing pamphlets to people, making false claims. The Modi government has failed on all fronts, he charged.

The BJP reacted immediately and termed Rao as frustrated. “In his address to the intellectuals, Shah has only highlighted the achievements of the BJP government headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. It was hard facts. To dub it as a lie is travesty of truth. Dinesh Gundu Rao’s rantings, however, will not alter or change the ground reality,” BJP spokesperson S Suresh Kumar said, adding that the Congress appears to have been rattled with Shah’s visit to Karnataka.

But rooting out congress will give birth to annoying characters like Kejriwal or Mamata.
So, it is better to create or leave some space for Congress. But congress is also on
self destructive mode. It is shedding it's nationalistic character by not supporting
economic issues of the govt. Though it will be in nation's interest who will help them.

The day BJP brought back leaders like Yedyurappa and others who left the party to
achieve their selfish desires, that day itself majority of the people have decided not to
vote for BJP again in Karnataka . Sitting beside such corrupt and casteist leaders
Shah must be day dreaming to root out Congress, but Karnataka will be BJP's nemisis
in the future polls. At the most BJP may get 35 seats in Karnataka.

Wake UP

Kannadigas already know the cheddi buddies evil tricks... We already threw them out in our last election. Sid is doing a good job ... But his effort to trash these evil supportors should be more strong and keep them out of karnataka. So that, there will be focus on development for all communities of our society.

Benglauru, June 14: Even as schools are divided over providing online education, the state Higher Education Department is stressing on continuing online education.

Deputy Chief Minister and Higher Education Minister Dr C N Ashwath Narayan has stressed the need for digital learning to eliminate educational inequalities.

Taking part in a Webinar on ‘Digitising Higher Education - Challenges and Opportunities,’ organised by the Padmashree Institute of Management, he asked educational institutions to give emphasis to digital learning.

“Digital learning is a means to ensure quality education to all sections of the society without discrimination on the basis of caste, region and religion. This is a solution to eliminate discrimination. Through digital learning, a student in a remote village will also get an opportunity to learn from an experienced and highly qualified teacher.”

In addition to this, students are getting study material in digital form. Keeping these important aspects in mind, all educational institutions should give stress to digital learning without wasting any time,’’ he said.

He, however, admitted that digital learning has its own challenges like - quality internet connectivity, laptops and mobile gadgets.

“We are trying to find a solution to it by raising funds through Corporate Social Responsibility or through government funds,” he said. “We are making efforts to provide 4G network across the State,” he said.
