The Toyota Land Cruiser Prado was gifted to Yeddyurappa by former industries minister Murugesh R Nirani on his first day in office as state BJP president. The 2,982 cc SUV, adorned with a plaque, made its debut on Friday when Yeddyurappa used it to travel between his home and the party office. Excited BJP workers were seen taking selfies with the vehicle in the backdrop.

Party sources said Yeddyurappa will embark on the week-long tour to the drought-hit districts in the state on April 24. He can address crowds standing through the sunroof.

Justifying his scheduled travel, Yeddyurappa said, "What is wrong in using a luxury car to tour drought-affected areas? My former colleague Nirani has gifted the car..he felt it would provide me comfort and safety."

Here there are 3points.

1- Visiting famine area with Luxury style
2- Source of Gifting - The source of this car ?????
3- The beneficiary of this Gift. - Credibility of this person.

In BJP everything is possible, until we have majority of stupid and illiterate.
They will reign and enjoy until the above 2 sects last.
When it ceases, the God will take his own course.

A leader should be an example..
it is the ARROGANCE to use such expensive vehicle to visit the area where people are dying of THIRST.
I would request YEDDY to sell the VEHICLE and spend the money on PEOPLE rather than showing the ARROGANCE. and insulting people who are facing the troubles...

New Delhi, Mar 7: The Supreme Court on Friday stayed the bail granted by Karnataka High Court to 21 Popular Front of India (PFI) members accused in connection with violence that erupted during the protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in Karnataka's Mangaluru in December 2019.

On February 17, the High Court had granted bail to the accused on the bail petition filed by Mohammed Ashik.

A bench consisting Chief Justice S A Bobde issued notice to the accused on Friday after taking cognisance of the plea filed by Karnataka government against the bail granted by the High Court.

Appearing for the state government, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta criticised the High Court's order stating that at least 56 policemen sustained injuries during the violent protests.

Two persons identified as Jaleel (43) of Kudroli and Nousheen (49) of Bengre had died at a private hospital following the bullet injuries they sustained in an alleged police firing during a protest against CAA 2019.
