Hassan, Apr 30: Home Minister and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president G. Parameshwara, on Friday, reiterated that a Dalit leader should become Chief Minister (CM) of the State.

G-ParameshwarSpeaking at the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's 125th birth anniversary programme organised in Sakleshpur, he said that the demand for a Dalit CM?is only to prove the capability of the deprived class.

“I never said that I should become CM. Either Mallikarjun Kharge, Srinivas Prasad or anyone else should, for that matter,” he said.

The issue of a Dalit leader becoming Chief Minister had been raked up many times in the past.

However, he said, nothing will change at once if a Dalit becomes a CM. However, such a move can be an opportunity for Dalits to show the world that they can govern well too,” Mr. Parameshwara said.

Recalling various incidents in his life, Parameshwara said, “I?am proud of being a Dalit. I took every insult in my life as a challenge and thus attained this status.”

Further, he questioned the rationale behind referring to Dalits as backward classes'. “When will Dalits be taken off the list of backward classes,” he asked.

JD(S) MLA?H?K?Kumaraswamy,?in his presidential address said, except Congress, all political parties in the state have announced their CM?candidate. “I have no faith that a Dalit from JD(S) can become a CM. At the most, I?could become a minister but not the CM,” he said.

Shame on you, useless creature. Is he begging for the post of CM???
Let him sincerely do the duty which has entrusted to him, rather than grumbling in the name of Dalit? These so called dirt and filth minded politicians are bane to the Natiion. They don't have an iota of dignity? These are like poisonous creatures, which spread their dirty venoms in the society and create hatred amongst the people and politicians. These sort of dirty thugs should be discarded by the like minded civilised citizens of our state and the Great Nation of India, to have a peaceful and cordial relationship among its Gentleman Citizens. Jai Ho., jai Hind. Long Live India and Indians.

Bengaluru, Feb 12: Mohammed Nalapad, the rogue son of Karnataka Congress leader NA Harris, who is out on bail in a 2018 case of him bashing up a man at a pub, has now rammed his luxury car into vehicles, injuring four people on Bengaluru road.

The incident took place on Sunday on the Ballari Road where Nalapad was rash driving his car. The car hit a biker and an autorickshaw, injuring four people. He immediately got off his car and fled riding a friend's car.

The biker has suffered a fracture in his leg and is undergoing treatment at a hospital.

According to police, soon after the accident a man appeared before police to claim responsibility for the accident.

Ravikante Gowde, Joint Commissioner of Police said, "A man named Balakrishna came to surrender as the one who was driving the car. Investigation has, however, showed that it was Nalapad who was driving when he met with the accident. The investigating officer has issued him a notice to appear before the police."

BJP spokesperson S Prakash has said, "A case under the Goonda Act should be filed against Nalapad and the court should take cognisance of this and cancel his bail. The father has no control over son. He is a serial offender who is harming the public on a repeated basis."

Nalapad was earlier arrested in 2018 in the Bengaluru pub incident in which he and his associate bashed up the son of a prominent businessman in the city. Nalapad Harris is out on bail after remaining in judicial custody for three months in the case of attempt to murder after the 2018 midnight brawl.

New Delhi, Mar 26: While the humans are on lockdown and spending time with their families, animals are free and without any fear roaming around on the otherwise busy roads. From Malabar civets to large Indian bisons, animals are enjoying this time.

Indian Forest Officer Susanta Nanda recently shared a video with the caption, "Indian bison( the gaur) goes for a street walk. The largest extant Bovine, is native to South and Southeast Asia. It can be very aggressive. Rare to see in markets."

The 8-second video shows the large animal freely walking in the market area of Chikmagalur district, Karnataka, while the few onlookers on the road get aside and watch the Bison with utmost amazement.

The videos of animals having a gala time on the roads have become common. After the video was posted online, it became a hit. The clip garnered over 3.1k views and over 100 retweets.

Twitter is amazed at the video. Have a look at the comments.

One user wrote, "Oh! We should vacate this place for them. Guess humans have stayed for too long."

Another Twitter user wrote, "That’s one thing people would follow social distancing with!"
