Hassan, Jun 5: Hardline Hindutva leader Anant kumar Hegde will soon receive at least 1,000 pieces of langotis for calling the Janata Dal (Secular) a ‘Putgosi Paksha’ (langoti or loincloth party).

Coming down heavily on Congress-JD(S) coalition government in Karnataka, Mr. Hegde, who is also Uttara Kannada BJP MP and Union Minister for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, had described JD(S) as a ‘putgosi pakasha’ recently.

Condemning his remarks, the JD(S) launched a ‘Putgosi Chalavali’ (langoti campaign) yesterday and posted several pieces of loincloths to his residence.

“We will send at least 1,000 pieces of loincloth to his residences, at his native place and in Bengaluru, and his offices in Delhi and in his constituency,” the JD(S) activists said.

Comments

All channel reporters should ask this hate monger to give a pose in one of the Langot he received from his well wishers. He should also be asked if he has distributed the remaining longotes amongst his relatives and party workers includes women.

Sending langotis to his residence is not sufficient. He should wear langotis during his hat speach.

He shoulde be declared as Indian Embassador for Langotis. Its shame that bjp has such mad people with them who will sink the boat of the party.

Mangaluru | Covid safety norms flouted during new Gurupura bridge inauguration

June 12,2020

Mangaluru, Jun 12: A huge crowd gathered for the grand opening of the newly built 175-metre-long two-lane bridge across Phalguni River on National Highway 169 near Gurupura on the outskirts of the city today.

Even as the photos of the bridge inauguration ceremony went viral on social media, netizens took the elected representatives and the district administration to task for flouting safety norms at a time when the coronavirus cases are continuing to mount in coastal Karnataka.

The bridge was completed in a record time of 15 months. Dakshina Kannada MP and State BJP President Nalin Kumar Kateel and district in-charge Minister Kota Srinivas Poojari inaugurated the bridge in the presence of Mangaluru City North MLA Y. Bharath Shetty and others.

The bridge has come as a breather to thousands of travellers between Mangaluru-Moodbidri-Karkala on the busy NH. The age-old steel bridge had become dilapidated and was a cause for concern for road users. The highway is also under the process of getting widened to four lanes.

The bridge was constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 30 crore by contractor Sudhakar Shetty of Mugrodi Construction. Work started in February last and the contractor had time till February next.

While the two-lane carriageway is 16 metres wide, the bridge has 2.5-metre-wide pedestrian paths on both the sides. New approach roads of 500 metres each were also part of the project.
