Mangaluru, Jan 1: Nalin Kumar Kateel, a senior BJP leader and Member of Parliament from Dakshina Kannada, on Sunday welcomed the New Year by threatening to arson his own constituency after accusing the police of inefficiency.

The hardline Hindutva leader was speaking at a protest meet organised by the Hindu Hitharakshana Vedike in front of the Konaje police station in Mangaluru taluk after a silent march from nearby Pajir town demanding the arrest of the accused in the murder case of Karthik Raj, a local youth who was hacked to death by unidentified miscreants near Konaje on October 22.

“We are giving you (police) 10 days to arrest the culprits behind the murder. If you can't arrest them, then we are capable of setting Dakshina Kannada district ablaze without delay. Yes we can do that,” said an angry Kateel.

In his controversial speech, the MP not only threatened to arson Dakshina Kannada district but claimed that the “terrorists from Kerala” would come here and arson the district! He then questioned whether the police, who were not seen during the protest march, had gone to arson (the district)?

The MP also held local congress MLA U T Khader, who is also the minister for food and civil supplies, responsible for the rampant criminal activities in Ullal-Konaje region. Ironically, he then held “terrorists from Kerala” responsible for the same!

Mr Kateel, then all of a sudden turned secular and said that Muslims, Hindus and Christians are not responsible for the criminal activities in Dakshina Kannada district. “Terrorism of Kerala is behind all these. Terror activities from Kerala have spread to this district through its border town Ullal. If you close your eyes, terrorists of Kerala will burn down the district,” he said.

BJP Mangaluru Assembly unit president Santosh Kumar Boliyar said that the constituency witnesses a greater number of untoward incidents as compared to other constituencies in the district. He warned that a dharna would be staged right outside the police station if the accused in the Kartik Raj murder case are not arrested within 10 days.

Hindu Jagarana Vedike Vittal taluk unit convener Ganaraj Bhat Kedila said that if one considers the horrific incidents taking place in Ullal, one would wonder if one is witnessing a part of India or Pakistan. Even though the police honestly probe into the case, the government is unnecessarily interfering, he added.

Former MLA K Jayaram?Shetty, BJP district executive committee member Rajesh Shetty Pajiruguttu, ZP member Dhanalakshmi Gatti and Pajir Gram Panchayat President Seetaram Shetty were present.

Jagattu kandantaha nicha MP. Irony of india is Dr.Zakir Naik who is trying to unite hindus and muslims is an anti nationalist and the persons gives hate speeches like Nalin Kateel is having place in our parliament.
We people of DK cannot blame Nalin kumar because he has the communal mindset since his childhood because he belongs to an organisation who teaches hate and divide people.
People of DK Should be ashamed for voting this cheap MP. Shame on Naleel Kumar.

Mr.Kateel, you have already degraded your personality. Please don't degrade educated, qualified, culture people of Dakshina Kannada who voted you in the name of Modi.
Please \ DK ka naam badnaam naa karo\".... you are people's representative. don't forget.

By the way when RTI activist Mr. Baliga was murdered by your own man , what happened to your Fire speech??? when a poor hindu was killed by your own 20 members in the middle of the road, that time what happened to your fire speech??"

Dont burn entire Dakshina Kannada district. Kalladka town also falls under DK. If that also burns then BJP may lose its master.

Finally Kateel spoke the truth. His ultimate aim is setting the district ablaze. I think he spoke truth because of last night's new year party.

Bengaluru, Feb 6: Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa inducted 10 BJP MLAs to his Cabinet here on Thursday. They are among the 17 Congress-JD(S) MLAs who defected last year.

The much-delayed expansion came almost two-months after the MLAs won the bypolls held in December. During the period, the defectors camp exerted pressure on Yediyurappa to expand the Cabinet and include all the MLAs who contested the bypolls.

The new ministers sworn in are S T Somashekar, Ramesh Jarkiholi, Byrati Basavaraj, K Gopalaiah, B C Patil, Dr K Sudhakar, Shivaram Hebbar, Anand Singh, Narayana Gowda and Shrimanth Patil.

One of the 11 MLAs from the defectors camp, Mahesh Kumathalli was not inducted as he hailed from the same constituency as Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi. Three others, MTB Nagaraj, H Vishwanath and R Shankar are likely to be inducted in June.

Governor Vajubhai Bala administered oaths to the new ministers at Raj Bhavan, where hundreds of supporters came to witness the event. Authorities had also beefed up security arrangements outside Raj Bhavan for the ceremony.

Earlier, Yediyurappa was to induct 10 newly-elected MLAs and three old-timer BJP MLAs. But on Wednesday evening, the BJP's central leadership stepped in to decide that only 10 newly-elected MLAs should be inducted after disgruntlement surfaced among BJP MLAs over former minister C P Yogeeshwar's induction.

Several MLAs led by chief minister's political secretary MP Renukacharya had raised a hue and cry over allotting berths to those who lost Assembly polls. A group of 13 to 15 MLAs had also demanded adequate representation to Kalyana Karnataka region, alleging that the new Cabinet had excess representation from few districts of Karnataka, such as Bengaluru Urban and Belagavi.
