BJP tells Rahul to give Karnataka a working govt as he leaves for US

New Delhi, May 29: Congress President Rahul Gandhi’s jibe at BJP’s “troll army” before accompanying his mother Sonia Gandhi for a medical checkup in the US, invited a sharp rebuke from the BJP on Monday, asking him to ensure that Karnataka got a “working government” first.

Rahul, late Sunday night, announced his plans to accompany Sonia for her annual medical checkup. Often targeted by the BJP over his foreign visits, Rahul had a message – don’t get too worked up...I’ll be back soon”.

“Will be out of India for a few days, accompanying Sonia ji to her annual medical check up. To my friends in the BJP social media troll army: don’t get too worked up...I’ll be back soon,” the Congress chief said before heading out to the US.

The BJP hit back at Rahul on Twitter asking him to ensure that a “working government” was in place in Karnataka before he left for foreign shores.

“We wish well for Sonia ji’s health. Women of Karnataka also await Cabinet formation so that the state Govt can start serving them. Can you ensure Karnataka gets a working Govt before you leave,” the BJP said on its Twitter handle.

The Cabinet expansion in Karnataka has been stuck in endless parleys between alliance partners Congress and the JD(S).

JD(S) president H D Kumaraswamy and Karnataka Pradesh Congress President G Parameshwara were sworn-in as chief minister and deputy chief minister on Wednesday last but the coalition partners were yet to agree on the allotment of portfolios.

The Congress, a senior partner in the alliance, has been insisting on a lion’s share in the government with the JD(S) also digging in its heels. An exasperated Kumaraswamy had on Sunday said he was at the “mercy” of the Congress and not the 6.5 crore people of Karnataka as his party had not received the full mandate in the recent assembly elections.

Dammam, May 29: A woman hailing from Mangaluru, who was waiting for repatriation amidst coronavirus lockdown in Saudi Arabia, passed away yesterday after a brief illness.

The deceased has been identified as Lateefa (55), wife of Abdul Azeez, a resident of Angaragundi near Baikampady on the outskirts of the city.

She had flown to Saudi Arabia in November 2019 along with her husband to spend some time with their NRI son in Dammam. They were supposed to return in April this year.

After the sudden cancellation of regular flights due to lockdown, they were waiting for the repatriation flights from Dammam to Mangaluru or Bengaluru.

Meanwhile, Lateefa’s health condition worsened and she was hospitalised. She passed away on Thursday without responding to any treatment. Last rites are expected to take place in Dammam.
