BJP corporator’s rowdy-sheeter husband hacked to death by rival gang

Bengaluru, Feb 8: A rowdy-sheeter, who is also the husband of a BJP corporator in Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike, was hacked to death in broad daylight on Wednesday, February 7 in the state capital.

The victim is Kadiresh S (47), husband of BJP corporator Rekha R (Chalavadipalya ward in Chamarajpet). He was killed by a gang of four near Muneshwara Temple in Chalavadipalya. Kadiresh S was facing several cases, said the police.

He was attacked while he was preparing for Shivarathri celebrations at Muneshwara Temple in Anjanappa Garden, ward no. 138 in Chalavadipalya in Chamarajpet Assembly Constituency.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) M N Anucheth said the incident happened around 3.45 pm and an old rivalry is said to be the reason behind the hacking.

"The assailants attacked Kadiresh from behind with machetes and daggers and fled the spot,'' the DCP said. The victim sustained several stab injuries.

A few members of his family, including brother Dileep, brother-in-law Appu and Suresh, rushed Kadiresh to Victoria Hospital where he later succumbed to injuries, said Anucheth.

Kadiresh's brother Dileep said Kadiresh was supervising the cleaning of the temple premises for the coming Shivarathri festival on February 13. "We were working nearby. Suddenly, a few neighbours alerted us about the attack. We rushed to the spot and saw him lying in a pool of blood and shifted him to the hospital."

His body was then shifted to a morgue and the postmortem examination was conducted the same day, the officer said.

Local residents said a group of youths used to frequent Anjanappa Garden to smoke marijuana. Kadiresh had warned and beaten them for smoking near the temple, said local residents. The police are also probing this angle.

The victim's brother Suresh lodged a complaint with the Cottonpet police. He named two of the four attackers as Vinay and Naveen. Both are residents of Chalavadipalya.

The police have formed four teams, one led by an ACP and three teams led by police inspectors, who have launched a manhunt for the suspects.

Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy told reporters, "I knew both the corporator and her husband in person and were in touch with each other regularly. He had never expressed any threat to his life. If he had, we could have given him police protection."

Nalin Kumar Kateel hits out at Kharge for anti-Modi remark

News Network

February 10,2020

Chitradurga, Feb 10: President of the BJP State unit Nalin Kumar Kateel on Sunday hit out at Congress leader M. Mallikarjun Kharge for allegedly likening Prime Minister Narendra Modi to a “zero candle bulb”.

Mr. Kateel told reporters here that Mr. Modi was a “1,000 watt bulb that gave light to the world”, and compared Mr. Kharge to a lamp that had burned out politically.

Mr. Kateel charged that Mr. Kharge had become frustrated after losing the elections and after his party did not even consider him for a Rajya Sabha seat. And this had made the Congress leader to make wild charges against the Prime Minister.

Lashing out at the Congress, Mr. Kateel alleged that the Congress was continuing the “divide and rule” policy of the British and accused the former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda of being the “other face of the Congress”.

Mr. Kateel also came down on the former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. He ridiculed the Congress for the delay in choosing a new KPCC chief after Dinesh Gundu Rao submitted his resignation.

Karnataka Cabinet expansion in three days: BSY

News Network

January 24,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 24: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday said the much-delayed Cabinet expansion will take place in the next three days.

At the Kempegowda International Airport, after his arrival from Davos, he informed that he would discuss the matter with Union Home Minister Amit Shah to take a final decision on the distribution of important portfolios.

Deputy CM Ashwanath Narayna, Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai and others received the Chief Minister at the airport. The issue of Cabinet expansion was kept in abeyance, ever since the spectacular victory of 12 Assembly seats for BJP, for which the by-elections were held recently. The bypolls were necessitated, following the resignation of about 17 sitting Congress and JD (S) MLAs, which resulted in the collapse of the JDS-Congress coalition government in the state.

BJP had reportedly lured the Congress and JD (S) MLAs into their camp, after promising them to give party ticket to contest the elections, as well as ministerial berths. The Chief Minister had kept as many as 16 Cabinet berths, along with plum portfolios, vacant, after forming the BJP government, with the support of the deserted Congress and JD (S) MLAs, in July last. However, the issue of Cabinet expansion had postponed on one reason or the other, as Yediyurappa was struggling to keep the promise he had made to the former Congress and the JDS MLAs, on whose sacrifice the BJP came back to power.

With the strong demand for ministerial berths within the loyal BJP MLAs, the BJP high command had reportedly advised Yediyurappa to accommodate only a few of the turncoat MLAs and strike balance between the groups.

However, Yediyurappa, who had assured the Congress and JD (S) MLAs of giving them Cabinet berths, had been in dilemma ever since and found it tough to convince the party's Central leaders.

According to party sources, the Chief Minister is not only facing problems over the expansion of his Cabinet, but is also worried over the demand for creation of more number of Deputy Chief Ministers, adding to the present list of three.
