New Delhi, Jul 6: Charging the BJP of indulging in horse-trading in Karnataka by offering all sorts of temptations to it's MLAs there, Congress on Saturday condemned its attempts to bring down an elected government in the state. 

Talking to reporters after a meeting of senior Congress leaders, to discuss the political crisis in Karnataka, caused by the resignation of 11 MLAs, including eight from the Congress and three from JD(S), AICC Media In-charge Randeep Surjewala said, 'BJP is unable to digest the elected government of Karnataka, so they have set up a 'mandi' of Legislators, by providing all sorts of temptations. We condemn the attempts by BJP of trying to bring down the elected government in Karnataka.'

Alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah were encouraging defections in the state, Mr Surjewwala said, 'A new symbol of horse-trading politics has emerged in the country, MODI - Mischievously Orchestrated Defections in India.

'Would like to remind the PM of his oath to protect the Constitution. If the PM of the country is going to encourage defections in broad daylight, who will protect democracy? If the Prime Minister and the Home Minister abdicate their constitutional efforts, there will be no democracy left,' he added. 

'We want to tell them that no effort of yours will succeed in denigrating India's democracy or its laudable Constitution," Mr Surjewala asserted. 

The 13-month-old JD(S)-Congress coalition government in Karnataka edged closer to falling down, as 11 MLAs, including eight of Congress and three of JD (S) met Governor Vajubhai Vala, after submitting their resignations to Assembly Secretary MK Vishalakshi, in the absence of Speaker K N Ramesh Kumar.

AICC General Secretary for Karnataka K C Venugopal rushed to Bangalore, in the light of the developments.

The PEACE LOVERS GROUP should be formed to protect the state, country which should attack those responsible for causing such a big destruction of peace.

Attack mercilessly those who responsible like   all MLAs who betrayed their people of their constituency   and Opposition leaders Yaddi,  Modi,   Shah and whoever else involved.

This is the real struggle and Heroism like who fought against British to get freedom.

Keeping quiet is the big crime. Answerable to God. May God help

Bengaluru, Jan 23: City civic body Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) levied a penalty of Rs 50,000 on the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) for using single-use plastic cups during the recent India-Australia one-day international match at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

"Despite many awareness meetings, BBMP has found that single-use plastic cups were used during yesterday's cricket match and has fined KSCA Rs 50,000 as penalty," tweeted the civic body commissioner BH Anil Kumar.

The state cricket association treasurer Vinaya Mruthyunjaya said the civic body gave a general notice without detailed information on plastic use.

"We have been environmentally friendly for the last many years and at all gates, security has made sure no plastic or flex was allowed inside the stadium," Mruthyunjaya told media.

Mruthyunjaya said KSCA sought information from the civic body as to where the single-use plastic cups were found in the stadium during the India-Australia match.

On January 16, KSCA president Roger Binny inaugurated a plastic bottle shredder at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, in addition to other green initiatives at the cricket ground such as solar panels, sub-air system, biogas unit, rainwater harvesting and others. 

Similarly, in December 2019, BBMP cracked down on popular fast food eatery – Adyar Anand Bhavan in HSR Layout and fined the establishment Rs 1 lakh for plastic use.

In October, the BBMP fined eateries including McDonald's in central Bengaluru for using plastic.
