Shivamogga, Oct 31: Congress leader and minister of irrigation and medical education D K Shivakumar on Wednesday said that the Bharatiya Janata Party was hesitating to seek vote in the name of Narendra Modi as the people have already realised he is unfit to become the prime minister of this great country.

“The BJP local leaders are seeking votes in Yeddyurappa’s name in Shivamogga and Sriramulu’s name in Ballari. They have forgotten Narendra Modi. Yeddyurappa and Sriramulu are responsible for bypolls as they are power-hungry,” he told reporters.

They failed to pressurise the Central government for farm loan waiver, but Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy waived Rs 46,000 crore farm loan,” he said.

Shivakumar said that people were disappointed with the Centre as it failed to control the price rise of essential commodities. The voters would support the Congress and JD(S) in the bypolls.

He said that though he was opposed to the BJP ideology, he had soft corner for State BJP President B S Yeddyurappa.

Well Said DKS. I think they fed up with his foreign trips. I just wonder why he is not planning his trip to Bermuda Triangle.

Madikeri, Feb 23: Back-to-back floods and landslides in the last two years, has led to a fall in the number of tourists coming to the coffee-growing region of Kodagu, forcing the district administration to intervene and take confidence-building measures, telling tourists that Kodagu was safe to visit.

According to the statistics of the Karnataka State Tourism Department, Kodagu recorded a moderately good number of tourists in 2018 and 2019, the years that the district witnessed devastating floods and landslides.

The Department’s statistics reveal that 17 lakh tourists visited Kodagu in 2018 and 18 lakh in 2019. This means the flood-ravaged years did attract tourists contrary to what the stakeholders had claimed.
