BJP can ask Modi to ban us instead of holding Mangaluru Chalo: SDPI

Mangaluru, Sept 2: The Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) has urged the district administration and police not to give permission for Mangaluru Chalo, which will be organised by the BJP State Yuva Morcha on September 7.

Briefing media persons here on Saturday, SDPI DK district unit president Haneef Khan Kodaje said that the district has just returned to normalcy, after undergoing prohibitory order under IPC Section 144 in Bantwal for nearly two months. 

At this juncture, the Yuva Morcha is organising a rally for political gain, as the Assembly election is fast approaching in Karnataka, he added.

 “If the BJP wants the resignation of District In-charge Minister Ramanath Rai, then the BJP, as an Opposition party, should fight in the Assembly by asserting pressure on the state government. By holding a rally and a meet in one district, the resignation of a minister is not possible,” he said.

Kodaje said that BJP’s demand to ban the PFI and the SDPI cannot be fulfilled if they hold a rally in Mangaluru. “If they have courage, they can assert pressure on the BJP-led Central government to ban them. The demands of the BJP Yuva Morcha are silly,” he said.

Kodaje urged the district administration not to give permission for any rallies or chalo by any political party in Dakshina Kannada for the next one year, to restore peace and harmony in the district.

In reference to Ramanath Rai organising “Samarasyada Nadige” to restore peace in the district, Kodaje called it a political gimmick. “It is true that we had demanded a harmony walk in Bantwal during peace meeting held recently in Mangaluru. Rai should hold such walks by taking all sections of the society.”

Bengaluru, May 12: In a scathing attack on the ruling BJP in Karnataka and warning the Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa government against any move to amend the Labour laws and APMC through an ordinance, former chief minister and JDS leader H D Kumaraswamy on Tuesday asked Mr Yediyurappa to work in the interest of the people and not to budge under any pressure from the Centre or to please party bosses.

Speaking to media here on Tuesday he questioned the urgency to bring forward such ordinances on important subjects and asked the government to have a public debate on it and also discuss it in the assembly.

“I'm warning the government… I have been watching everything silently till now, I have not caused any embarrassment to the government. I want to tell the government, don’t push us to do it,” Kumaraswamy said

Bengaluru, Apr 16: Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr Ashwath Narayan today said that if former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy, being a law-abiding citizen, does not follow guidelines then action will be taken against him.

The Deputy CM made this comment when he was asked about Kumaraswamy's son Nikhil's marriage, which has been fixed on April 17 at a farmhouse near Bidadi in Ramnagar.

Narayan said: "Any violation of the guidelines will not be tolerated. We will ask the concerned authority to film the entire event and document it."

He said that so far Kumaraswamy has made public statements that guidelines will be followed.

"HD Kumaraswamy is a people's representative. He has been in public life for a long time. He should abide by the guidelines," Narayan said.

"Since he has been in a responsible position for a long time and he was the Chief Minister, guidelines must be followed in his son's marriage as per the rules amid COVID-19 scare.

After the marriage, there must not be any excuses. He cannot say that people came without an invitation," the Deputy Chief Minister added.

Kumaraswamy clarified that only his family members will attend the marriage and that there will be around 60 to 70 people.

"All guidelines will be followed as per the central government directives," he said.
