This looks majority of people have voted based on caste/sects. muslim candidates won in muslim majority area even candiadates are not deserved and similarly in other relegion dominated areas too. this needs to be eradicated and elect the honest people who really works for betterment of society in all fileds.
I assume this result definatly not based on the performance of the previous tenure or state/central government performance.
every voters are the decision makers for future India.

This results shows the way to Sorake to resign from his current ministry. Oscar fernandes to be dethroned from Congress central hicommand. Mr. Promod must come out of Sorake/Oscar combine and work independently. We know he is a loyal worker of the party. But as long as the two opportunists are in the party, congress popularity will decline to Zero. This is a ringing bell to all congress great and mini leaders of Udupi District.

SORAKEGE PORAKE

GOOD LESSON FOR SORAKE.... IF U DONT GIVE TICKET FOR MUSLIMS U WILL NEVER GET MUSLIM VOTE.

MUSLIM VOTERS ARE THE DECISION MAKERS

tight slap on the face of Sorake

THANKS FOR SUPPORTING BJP..... SPECIALLY SDPI AND OTHER CongRSS leaders...

BJP must appreciate Congress (Oscar,Sorake,Ramanath Rai ) for retain Both districts

JP Effect in Udupi Dist

In the two coastal districts, Bjp wil have the upper hand.......that is seen in every day life......

This is really same for us all congressmen, people are not voting for true face, BJP s worst ruling in india.,

congress did so much kithapathi still BJP won, this is the truth of True leadership.

BJP won, so exited will celebrate in bengaluru,

its total cheating vote counted, BJP government can do whatever they want until they are in power.

Congress take up JNU Student to defeat ZP election, but congress itself bites the dust.

BJP Jai Ho, Expected result.

Karnataka cops arrest 4 peddlers from Kerala, seize drugs worth Rs 1.25 cr

News Network

July 29,2020

Bengaluru, July 29: The Central Crime Branch arrested four international drug peddlers belonging to Kerala and recovered drugs worth Rs 1.25 crore from them, said Karnataka Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday.

"We have started a war on drugs. Our agenda is to curb the drug mafia not only in Bengaluru, but in entire Karnataka. Many people are involved in the drug mafia. They are targeting students, other states, and international students who can spend and afford to become victims," said Bommai.

The recovered items include 2,000 kg LSD strips, 110 grams MDMA Cristol, 10 ecstasy tablets, 5 kg Ganja, five cell phones, weighing machine and pouches.

"When we raided a house in Soladevanahally police station area, we arrested Shahad Mohammed, Azmal, Ajin KG Verghese and Nitin Mohan. All are from Kerala and we will arrest their contacts as well. They are involved in the dark web mafia," Bommai said.

He said the peddlers were using post offices and couriers for their business.

"I'll speak to the central government, the home ministry and postal department, and other issues related to this mafia. Canada, Netherlands, and other nations are also involved in this mafia," said the state home minister.

"People from influential backgrounds are also involved in this mafia, but our objective is zero tolerance. We are using our intelligence. Drugs are coming from other states like AP, Goa, and other states," he said.
Bommai said he was personally addressing this case and appealed for support from parents, schools and colleges.

"I'm addressing this issue personally because it's important to curb the drug mafia. I need support from schools and college managements and parents. I'll also call college and hostel managements before colleges start. We will make managements responsible," he said.
