KSE?holds Kuruba leaders' meet, talks Ahinda to counter BSY

Bengaluru, Aug 9: In a new turn to the tussle between senior BJP leaders B?S?Yeddyurappa and K S?Eshwarappa, the latter convened a meeting of leaders of the Kuruba community and also played the “Ahinda” card on Monday.

BSYEshwarappa, who belongs to the Kuruba community, is cut up with Yeddyurappa for sidelining him while appointing office-bearers to the Shivamogga unit of the party.

Yeddyurappa has appointed S Rudre Gowda as the district president of the party. Gowda had contested as the KJP nominee against Eshwarappa in the 2013 Assembly elections.

Eshwarappa has been boycotting key meetings of the party to register his unhappiness. On Monday,?Eshwarappa convened a meeting to revive the Sangolli Rayanna Brigade, a registered but defunct social service organisation, apparently to send a message to Yeddyurappa that he cannot be taken for granted. Addressing the gathering, Eshwarappa said the brigade will take up district-wise enrolment drives soon. The brigade will not be restricted to the Kuruba community. Those belonging to minority, other backward classes and dalits can also enrol themselves with the brigade. It will hold a convention in Haveri during the third week of September, he said.

Political observers feel that?Eshwarappa is trying to play the Ahinda card (Kannada acronym for minorities, backward classes and dalits) and emerge as a leader of these communities and consolidate his position in the party.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, when he was in the JD(S), consolidated his position in politics by conducting Ahinda meetings. It paid him dividends as he emerged as an Ahinda leader.

Eshwarappa had recently complained to the party leadership against the style of functioning of Yeddyurappa. It is said that many party leaders including Bhanuprakash, Raghunath Rao Malkapure and Somanna Bevinamarad endorsed Eshwarappa's view before the party leadership.

Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 1: Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Wednesday said that the resolution passed by the Kerala Assembly is against the "unconstitutional Act passed by the Centre".

"The resolution passed by Kerala Assembly is against the unconstitutional Act passed by the Centre. It has been noticed by the whole country," Vijayan said.

The Kerala Assembly had on Tuesday passed a resolution seeking withdrawal of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019.

Before the resolution was passed against the Act, Vijayan in a special Assembly session targeted RSS and said that citizenship law is part of an agenda.

"The CAA is part of an agenda. Muslims are being considered as internal enemies by RSS, who is controlling the ruling dispensation at the Centre," he alleged.

The new law grants citizenship to Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Parsis, Buddhists and Christians fleeing religious persecution in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday while talking about women safety, the Chief Minister said, "Those women, who are traveling face many problems, particularly regarding accommodation. To address this, government will start accommodation facilities in all towns. This project will be implemented with the help of local bodies."

Reacting to the development in the Kerala Assembly, BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said that Assembly has insulted the Constitution and parliament by passing a resolution seeking withdrawal of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).

"The Constitution has delineated clearly the roles of parliament and state legislatures. When people who have taken an oath of the constitution, destroy it, it is a most irresponsible act. Both the houses of parliament have passed CAA and if a state assembly tries to hijack the Act it is an insult not only of the constitution but the parliament as well," Naqvi told news agency.

Dear scape goat Naqvi, dont try to fool us.   I know you are a liar as you are int he company of liars.  MPs are taking oath to respect and safeguard indian constitution and not to disrespect it and go agaisnt the teachings of constitution.  What Central Govt has done is 100 perent agaisnt the constitution and every citizen has the right to oppose this.   You are definately go with the Govt as you are paid for it.   But dont force other too to follow you.  What Kerala Govt has done is according to will of people and Central Govtr should respect it.
