Mangaluru, Jun 1: Rubbishing the reports of chief minister Siddaramaiah warning him over the candidature of his billionaire brother BM Farooq in the Rajya Sabha elections on Janata Dal(Secular) ticket, Mangaluru North MLA BA Mohiuddin Bava said that the CM's remarks were exaggerated by the media.

1bavaSpeaking to media persons here on Wednesday, termed the media reports that Siddaramiah lashed out at him during the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting held in Bengaluru recently as mere figment of imagination.

Mr Bava, however, admitted that being a senior Congress leader, Mr Siddaramaiah asked him to convince Mr. Farooq to withdraw his nomination.

"I had informed the CM about Farook's decision to contest the RS polls. The CM apparently did not take the information then seriously. At that time, the Congress had also not decided on its candidates," he said.

The MLA asserted that his ties with his younger brother are personal and never financial, political or business-related.

He said Mr. Farooq had neither been in politics nor was he a member of any political party. However, he has been friends with the former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy for many years. Mr. Farooq is free to pursue his political interests, Mr. Bava said.

At the same time, he would remain a staunch Congressman and would vote for the official candidate of the party in the Rajya Sabha elections, Mr. Bava clarified.

Bellary, Jan 4: A BJP MLA has apparently threatened 'minority' Muslims against participating in anti-CAA protests, saying that opposing the new Citizenship Act will not be good for them and they will have to face serious repercussions.

"It's just a caution for those who are protesting against the CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act). We are 80 per cent and you (Muslims) are 18 per cent. Imagine what will happen if we take charge," MLA Somashekar Reddy told a gathering here on Friday.

"Beware of the majority when you live in this country. This is our country. If you want to live here, you will have to, like the Australian Prime Minister said, follow the country's traditions," he added.

He said: "So, I warn you that CAA and NRC are made by Modi and Amith Shah. If you will go against these acts, it won't be good."

Continuing to spew venom, the MLA further said, "If you wish, you can go to Pakistan. We don't have any issues. Intentionally, we would not send you."

He said that the community should live in harmony with Hindus. "If you will act as enemies, we should also react like enemies," he said.

Earlier, Bengaluru BJP MP Tejaswi Surya reportedly called CAA opposers as "puncturewalas".

The nation has been witnessing massive protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC). But Prime Minister Narendra Modi has specifically stated that the NRC was never discussed.

Reddy,

 

This is not your father's country nor any other's father's country.

Eh desh kisika baap ka naheen hai.

 

All have sacrificed to liberate this nation.

Your  Gundagiri will not succeed. See soon the result.

 

To goto Pakistan, we  have choice to go or not. But you don't have choice.

 

Your brain also black, we don't what about the color of your heart.

 

Jai Bharath, Jai all countries

Udupi, Jan 19: Union Minister for Finance and Corporate Affairs Nirmala Sitaraman has said the mutt tradition in Udupi is a unique tradition and a perfect example of the country’s rich heritage of spirituality.

Speaking at the Darbar organised for the incoming Paryaya Admar Mutt seer Sri Eeshapriya Theertha Swamiji at Rajangana, here Saturday night, she said, “Paryaya festival is not just an event. It represents the presence of the Lord. I am conscious about the history. I am immensely blessed to be associated with the Krishna Mutt in one or the other.”

She turned nostalgic and traced her connection with the Krishna mutt which started in her childhood. “I am attached to the Mutt and temple due to my maternal uncle. My uncle was a bank employee and he spent his career in Manipal. I am being drawn to the mutt for the past 25 years. I am blessed immensely by the seers of the mutt and Lord Krishna.”
