“The Bharatiya Janata Party’s strategy polls is nothing but telling lies and instigating communal sentiments. But, they cannot fool people always. Kannadigas have already come to know their cheap tactics,” said Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah.

He was addressing party workers at the launch of the election campaign in Hosapete on Saturday.

Training his guns on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for levelling “false allegations” against the Congress government in Bengaluru recently, Mr. Siddaramaiah remarked: “Mr. Modi should be ashamed of telling a bundle of lies and is unfit to continue as Prime Minister of the country.” Mr. Modi should have verified facts, particularly on crime rate, he said.

Mallikarjun Kharge, Congress leader in the Lok Sabha, took a dig at Mr. Modi for showing scant respect for women.

Referring to the Prime Minister “mocking” senior Congress leader Renuka Choudhary, he said: “BJP and its leaders have been exhibiting only lip sympathy towards women and the suppressed and oppressed classes. But people of Karnataka are peace loving and keen on development. They will not accept the BJP’s principles and ideologies,” he said.

...dont blame only PM & BJP, it is their upbringing & brain wash by their mentor RSS. Lies, deceit, hate, intolerance, division of people are only the weapons of these people. Women have no respect and place in Varna politics. NA STREE SWATANTRIYA MARHATI.

Bengaluru, Jan 18: The Karnataka state government has reportedly initiated the process to ban organizations like Popular Front of India (PFI).

State Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Friday evening said that instructions have been given to the police and officers concerned to gather information about the activities of such organisations so that necessary inputs can be sent to the Center.

He made it clear that the action would not be limited against PFI and SDFI (Social Democratic Front of India), rather any organisation which is involved in such activities, would meet the same fate.

Mangaluru/Mysuru, May 19: Though the Karnataka government permitted the private buses, operators in Dakshina Kannada district have decided not to operate buses until May end. In Mysuru district too the private buses remained off the roads.

Dakshina Kannada Bus Owners’ Association President Dilraj Alva said “Technically, private bus operators are not able to operate services as all of us have surrendered our permits. If we start services we will have to pay the tax for entire month. Hence, we have decided to resume bus services from June 1.”

The private buses had suspended their services since March 24.

In addition, bus owners also have two more demands which the state government needs to consider on priority, he said.

“We have requested the government to exempt private buses from paying tax for the next six months. We were not plying buses during lockdown and it will be tough for us in the next three months to operate as per new conditions.”

“The government has allowed only 30 persons in each bus to maintain social distancing. In addition, we have been urging the state government for bus fare revision since 2013. The government has revised the bus fares of KSRTC twice after that,” Alva said adding that bus owners will be meeting Mangaluru RTO on Tuesday.
