The rally was jointly organised by the Dakshina Kannada district committees of Communist Party of India (Marxist) and Communist Party of India as a precursor to mammoth protest rally planned by the Left parties in Bengaluru on June 6.

Speaking on the occasion, CPI district secretary V Kukyan said the BJP led NDA government which already two years at the centre have belied all promises made to their respective electorate.

He said that the government's policies had left the poor and the deserving sections of society in a rather piquant situation.

“Team Modi is catering to the interests of the capitalists ignoring the interests of both farmers and the labour class, he said adding the state government too has failed in providing even basic minimum amenities to the people that expected it,” he said.

The BJP that promised to bring back black money stashed in tax havens abroad prior to the elections has failed miserably in this regard. Corporate borrowers owe Indian banks nearly Rs 3-lakh crore, he said adding nationalized banks have already declared this as non-performing assets. The union government also failed to stop liquor baron Vijay Mallya from fleeing the country and being brought to justice here, he noted.

CPM district secretary Vasanth Achary said it is the corporates who are reaping the benefits of Indian independence and not poor people.

Good move. Though the main opposition party Congress is doing very very less effort to counter communalism of Modi Government.
Atleast Khanayya Kumar voice heard more than entire Congress party.

Bengaluru, April 3: The ASHA worker, who was attacked by locals in Sadiq layout area in Bengaluru while conducting a coronavirus survey, on Friday expressed satisfaction with police action in the matter.

"I am happy that five people have been arrested for attacking me while I was conducting a survey in view of COVID-19 in Sadiq layout area in Bengaluru on April 1. We serve the people and work for the betterment of the society," Krishnaveni, the ASHA worker, told news agency here.

ASHA workers, who were deployed to spread awareness about coronavirus and identify suspected cases, were allegedly attacked by a group of locals in the area on Wednesday.

"We had been conducting surveys for the past 14 days ever since a positive coronavirus case was identified in the area. A person came and asked why we were gathering information. We informed him that a positive case was identified in the area," Krishnaveni said.

"They made an announcement from the mosque not to give any information to us. Afterwards, several people came out of their houses and started attacking us," she added.

Police initiated an investigation and have made arrests in the matter.

This comes as the country is under a 21-day lockdown to prevent the spread of coronavirus, which has claimed the lives of at least 56 people and infected over 2,000 people.
