Mysuru, Aug 11: The Bharatiya Janata Party is controlling a section of the media and playing negative politics with the help of those media, according to Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Dinesh Gundu Rao.

Addressing the party workers at the district committee meeting, he said, a large number of people are in favour of the Congress party according to a survey and thus, the BJP leaders are under fear of a defeat in the upcoming Assembly elections.

“The BJP leaders are following negative politics due to fear and a few media organisation are supporting them. The BJP has released a video of an IT raid conducted on a office in New Delhi in 2012, projecting it to be the video of a raid conducted on the premises of Energy Minister D K Shivakumar. A few TV channels are repeatedly broadcasting the video,” he pointed out.

“The BJP has taken to the social media in a big way to spread false news against the Congress party. The Congress party workers should also become active in the social media to give a fitting reply to the BJP,” he said.

Dinesh said, “The Union government has failed to provide necessary support to the state government and has failed to release the funds. All India Congress Committee vice-president Rahul Gandhi will take part in a party’s conference in Bengaluru on August 16.”

Bhopal, Mar 7: Independent MLA Surendra Singh Shera on Saturday said that he was not in any kind of captivity in Bengaluru and he will meet Chief Minister Kamal Nath soon.

"I was in Bengaluru for my daughter's medical treatment. I was not in any kind of captivity. I will meet CM Kamal Nath soon," Shera told reporters here upon returning to Bhopal from Bengaluru.

Earlier, Rajya Sabha MP and senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh alleged that the BJP had escorted four Madhya Pradesh MLAs, including three from his party, to Bengaluru.

"Last night, two charter planes were booked by BJP to take MLAs to Bengaluru. One was a 9-seater plane while the other was 12-seater. In the 12-seater plane, four MLAs were taken to Bengaluru. Out of them, three Congress MLAs Bisahulal Singh, Raghuraj Kansana and Hardeep Dang and one Independent MLA Surendra Singh Shera," Singh had said.

He has accused BJP of resorting to horse-trading in order to bring down the Kamal Nath government.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: Congress leaders on Wednesday staged a protest in front of Mahatma Gandhi's statue at Vidhana Soudha here against BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yathnal's alleged remarks accusing freedom fighter HS Doreswamy of being a "Pakistani agent".

Former Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah, KPCC working president Eashwar Khandre also joined the protest.

Yathnal on Tuesday called Doreswamy a fake freedom fighter and a Pakistani agent, while addressing the media.

His comments triggered a controversy drawing sharp remarks from Congress and other parties.

Congress has demanded an apology from Yathnal and has also urged that his Assembly membership be cancelled.

"Session proceedings will not continue until Yathnal apologises," said senior Congress leader HK Patil while addressing the protest earlier today.

Siddaramaiah asserted that making "provocative" comments against such a freedom fighter is obnoxious.

Former KPCC president Dr G Parameshwar said: "Yathnal is a criminal who had mentioned in his election affidavit that he had 27 cases against him. He has made such loose comments against the freedom fighter. He should apologise for his remarks."
