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

Udupi, Jun 9: A Mesolithic site has been discovered at Iduru-Kunjadi in Kundapura taluk of Udupi district of Karnataka by Prof T Murugeshi, Associate Professor of Ancient History and Archaeology at MSRS College, Shirva.

Prof Murugeshi said on Tuesday that the site is near a rock art site of the Mesolithic period that was unearthed. It is located in the Mookambika Wildlife Reserve Forest. At Iduru-Kunjadi, the finds of Mesolithic tools are characterised by blades, scrapers, burine, fluted cores, arrow-heads and flakes of the non-geometric pattern.

He said that though the site was found two years back, it took time to study and identify them. They resembled the tools found in a stratified context at Uppinangady on the Netravati basin, he added.
