Bengaluru, Jan 1: The Karnataka BJP will come out with a charge sheet on the “failures” and “non-implementation” of the promises made by the Congress government by January 16.

The youth wing of the party will then disseminate the contents of the charge sheet to each and every household in all 224 Assembly constituencies between February 15 and 22.

A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting chaired by BJP national president Amit Shah to review the Assembly poll preparedness of the party at a private resort on the outskirts of the city on Sunday.

The meeting was attended by top state leaders, functionaries, state election in-charge Prakash Javadekar and Piyush Goyal.

Briefing reporters, Union Minister Ananth Kumar said conventions of the SC/ST, OBC and women morchas of the party will be organised in each of the Assembly constituencies in February.

Micro-level planning

He said the party had constituted around 55,000 booth committees across the state. As a step forward, the party will appoint an “in-charge” for every 30-50 voters.

“Usually, the list in a polling booth has around 900 voters and runs into 25 to 30 pages. We will appoint an incharge for each page in the list. The incharge will have built a rapport with the voters entrusted to him by the time elections are held,” Kumar said.

He said the Nava Karnataka Nirmana Parivarthana Yatra led by party state president B S Yeddyurappa was getting excellent response across the state.

“The yatra has entered the 145th constituency. In contrast, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is on government tour only in constituencies won by the Congress, while JD(S) president H D Kumaraswamy has given up his yatra mid-way,” Kumar said.

BJP leaders B S Yeddyurappa, Jagadish Shettar, K S Eshwarappa, among others, were present.

Wah what a joke,  BJP is built on foundation of LIES.

His dad Modi has promised each citizen 15Lakh rupees. Did he give him. Yes he gave it to Industrialists.

Modi and BJP is full of lies, and troubles to everyone

 

Amit shah is a big criminal in Gujarat, he orchestered a big distruction of minorities.

Now talking in Karnataka for Siddaramiah's  honesty.

 

This is the record, no chief minister in the whole country like Sidduji.

 

BJP, shah, Modi should be ashamed to question  Siddu's  honesty.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa tweeted late Sunday night that he had tested positive for the novel coronavirus. 

In a brief post on Twitter, Mr Yediyurappa said that he was fine but had been hospitalised on the advice of doctors. While his daughter Padmavathi has also tested positive for the virus, the Chief Minister's son, Vijayendra, has tested negative.

The Chief Minister's media team has said he has been admitted to Manipal Hospital. Mr Yediyurappa, 77, also requested those who had come in contact with him to be wary of Covid symptoms and self-isolate.

"I have tested positive for coronavirus. Whilst I am fine, I am being hospitalised as a precaution on recommendation of doctors. I request those who have come in contact with me recently to be observant and exercise self-quarantine," the Chief Minister's tweet read.

The testing of the Chief Minister was done as part of the routine weekly tests he undergoes along with his staff. The results of Mr Yediyurappa's gunmen and security staff, around 50 of them, are expected today.

Staff members at Mr Yediyurappa's home office, Krishna, had tested positive early last month. 

At that time Mr Yediyurappa said: "I am going to discharge my duties from home from today for the next few days in view of some of the staff in the office-cum-residence Krishna testing positive".

Mr Yediyurappa had also met Karnataka Governor Vajubhai Vala in Bengaluru on Friday. State Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai was also present at the meeting.

The Chief Minister is the second high-profile political leader to confirm testing positive for COVID-19 today; hours earlier Union Home Minister Amit Shah tweeted similar news.

Mr Shah, 55, too said he was "fine" and that he had been hospitalised on the "advice of doctors".

The minister also asked all those who had been in contact with him over the last few days to "please isolate yourself and get your tests done".

The Home Minister was at a cabinet meet last week, at which top colleagues, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman were present.

All Covid norms, including social distancing, were followed at that meeting, sources said.

Last month Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan tested positive for the virus as well. He has been in hospital since then and tweeted today to say that he was well and, minutes after Mr Yediyurappa tweeted his Covid positive status, he posted a get-well-soon message.

"I pray to God for your speedy recovery, Yediyurappaji," Mr Chouhan wrote.

Mr Chouhan had tweeted a message for Mr Shah too. "Home Minister Amit Shah, may God help you recover soon, so you can serve the nation with full energy. Our best wishes are with you," his tweet read.

Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah also tweeted, saying: "I wish BS Yediyurappa a speedy recovery and to return with good health to continue his work for the people".

Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit also tested positive today, Chennai's Kauvery Hospital, where he has been admitted, said. He is asymptomatic and clinically stable.

On Sunday morning the virus claimed the life of a UP minister - Kamal Rani Varun, 62, died at Lucknow's Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences.

Over the last 24 hours, 54,735 cases were reported, taking the total number of cases to 17,50,723, data from the Health Ministry showed.

The continuing spike in cases over the past weeks comes as India gradually re-opens its economy after more than four months of the world's strictest lockdown. Unlock3, the third phase of easing of restrictions, came into effect on Saturday.

It took just 185 days for India to cross the 17-lakh mark after the first case was reported in Kerala in January; it took 110 days to record the first 1 lakh cases. More than 60 per cent of total cases in the country and over 50 per cent of total deaths have been recorded in July.

Bengaluru, Apr 13: Eminent scientist and NITI Aayog member V K Saraswat said on Monday the number of COVID- 19 cases is not going to go beyond what's being reported daily in India as he maintained that the country is in the process of flattening the curve.

The former Scientific Adviser to Defence Minister said the coronavirus positive cases have seen a sharper rise in the last four-five days because of increase in the number of testing.

"It's a good sign; all those asymptomatic cases lying hidden they are also coming out," Saraswat told PTI. "We certainly had a catalytic factor which was basically this (Nizamuddin) Markaz problem which has actually created clusters at different places and that has also been one of the factors for the kind of rise that has taken place."

But he said India is in a much better shape compared to other nations in the battle against COVID-19. "I can only say that the rate is not going to go beyond what has been going on now, may be 700 to 800 cases per day. So, we are in the process of flattening the curve."

The government's decision to declare nation-wide lockdown has paid dividends, Saraswat, a former chief of the Defence Research and Development Organisation, said.

Noting that India has seen a series of virus attacks in the last 15-20 years including Chikungunya and Dengue, he said the emphasis now should be on more and more R & D to find vaccines in advance.
