Mangaluru, Feb 14: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s ‘expensive watch’, which he claimed to have received as a “gift”, has even fellow Congressmen take a jibe at him like Opposition leaders.

watchSenior Congress leader B. Janardhana Poojary, known for his blunt remarks, has asked the Chief Minister to auction the watch and donate the proceeds to families of soldiers, who died in Siachen recently.

Not long ago, Mr. Poojary asked Mr. Siddaramaiah to drop “lazy” Ministers from his Cabinet and speed up the administration at a party campaign in Mysuru. A staunch loyalist of the Gandhi clan, Mr. Poojary demanded to know what answer the Chief Minister would offer if the party high command sought an explanation about the “gift”.

Being the Chief Minister, he should have been more careful while accepting gifts and should be a role model to others, he said.

Seems like the Chief Minister may need some time out from his time machine controversy.

Mangaluru, May 13: Kannadigas in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have sought additional flights to return to Karnataka during a video conference with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa here on Tuesday.

Noting that most of the ex-pats in UAE were from the coastal region, they urged the state government to ensure that most of these flights land in the Mangalore International Airport.

Many Kannadigas in the UAE were left unemployed due to the lockdown. “Many of them do not have the means to return to Karnataka and the state government should aid them,” representatives of various Kannadiga ex-pat groups urged the CM.

Yediyurappa said that the government has made all arrangements to bring back the ex-pats, and assured to fulfil all their demands.
