BJP leaders praised Jinnah, secretly visited Pak: UT Khader on Ramya row

Mangaluru, Aug 24: Delivering a tight slap on the face of those who tried to portray actor-turned-politician Ramya as an “antinational”, Congress leader U T Khader today said that it was BJP veteran L K Advani, who vociferously praised Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan.

ramyaRamya has been facing the ire of Sangh Parivar after she positively spoke about her recent trip to Pakistan for the SAARC Youth Summit. A pro-BJP advocate has lodged a sedition complaint in local court in Kodagu against Ramya for saying Pakistan is not hell. Besides, the BJP activists on social media have been constantly abusing her for refusing to apologize for her personal views.

Extending moral support to his party colleague and former Mandya MP, Mr Khader said that those who abuse Ramya and call her an anti-national just for expressing her opinion should clarify their stance on the one who vociferously praised Jinnah.

“Have you forgotten Mr Advani's statements on Jinnah after the former returned from Karachi trip? You never called him anti-national. Ramya never did such a mistake. She just expressed her opinion on her official Pakistan visit,” Mr Khader said.

Recalling Prime Minister Narendra Modi's surprise Pakistan visit, Mr Khader said, “Modi had gone to Pakistan without prior discussion and he attended a private function too. Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan made allegation that Modi met underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Lahore.”

Stating that all Indians are patriots, Mr Khader said that one particular party is behaving as if patriotism is its own property. “They just want to spread hatred and divide people for political gains. These are all dirty games. People should teach them a lesson,” he said.

Dear All, you wont become anti national if you speak in favor of Pakistan, nor if you speak against India in BJP ruled nation. It is only when you speak or share your views anything against our central government views, then you are labelled here as Anti National. That is what the Bjp or RSS wants Indians to be, literally these are SICK

Our Little dumb girl Geeta crossed Pakistan border and spend a good life for about 20 years in Eddi's ashram as he look after her as his own daughter. Still she was not converted to Islam ; finally Eddy bought her to India , when the government of BJP offered him 1 crores of rupees he politely refused the money. What a great man he is . . He is a Pakistani. We salute him. likewise there are crores of people in Pakistan are good and some people are their very bad (killing innocents in road, mosque, and schools).
So what Ramya said here???/ She said the people are good and Pakistan is not hell.
If Pakistan is a hell ,,, then how those people who were visited recently there not burned to death???? including Sushmaji, Modi and Rajnath????
Whatever Modiji did was good. He has followed Vajpayeeji.
In Pakistan there are terrorist groups which cannot be controlled by the Pak government; every time they kill hundreds of innocents .

No the most poisonous creatures of India like VHP , BJP etc. Sangha Pariwar's has no work to do simply they behind now Ramya.

Bengaluru, Jun 10: Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S) supremo and former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda said on Tuesday that he filed his nomination for the June 19 Rajya Sabha elections from Karnataka in response to a collective call from national leaders to be back in the Parliament.

"Though I was not personally interested to contest, national leaders from Congress President Sonia Gandhi, National Conference President Farooq Abdullah, TMC and Left parties want me back in Parliament," he told reporters here.

Gowda, 87, filed his nomination in the Vidhana Soudha, submitting the papers to Assembly Secretary and Returning Officer M.K. Vishalakshi, a party official told IANS.

Gowda''s second son and former minister H.D. Revanna and third son and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy were present on the occasion.

"Our party''s all 34 legislators also urged me to contest as my presence is necessary in Parliament at a time when the country was grappling with multiple crises in the aftermath of coronavirus," said Gowda.

Claiming that there was no pressure from his two sons as they are more concerned with his health, Gowda said he was touched by the requests of the national leaders, especially Gandhi who personally called him and asked him to contest as the country needed his presence in Parliament.

Gowda agreed to contest in the bypoll as his party''s candidate after the Congress state unit assured him of its support with its surplus votes, as the JD-S with 34 legislators is short of 10 votes of the required 44 votes.

It will be second time Gowda will enter the Rajya Sabha, 24 years after he was its member as the Prime Minster from June 1996 to April 1997 of the United Front government.

"Congress General Secretary K.C. Venugopal informed Kumaraswamy on June 6 that the party was fielding only its senior leader Mallikarjun Kharge from Karnataka and had surplus votes to ensure my victory as our party is 10 votes short of the required 44 votes to win," Gowda said.

Kharge filed his nomination on Monday.

Party''s outgoing member Kupendra Reddy, whose 6-year term ends on June 25, told Gowda that he was not interested for a second term as he did not get enough time in the upper house to raise issues.

"As our party does not have numbers in Parliament to get more time allotted to raise issues and participate in debates, Reddy wanted me to be in the Rajya Sabha in his place so that I could serve the nation better," Gowda said.

Gowda lost in the May 2019 general elections from Tumkur to G.S. Basvaraj of the BJP.

With the term of the four members -- Congress'' B.K. Hariprasad and Rajeev Gowda, BJP''s Prabhakar Kore and JD-S''s Reddy ending on June 25, the Election Commission notified the poll on June 1.

According to the poll panel, the nominations will be scrutinised on Wednesday and last date for withdrawal by candidates is June 12. Polling and vote count is on June 19.

From the ruling BJP, its grassroot cadres Eranna Kadadi and Ashok Gasti filed their nominations after Gowda.

By fielding Gowda for the fourth seat, the Congress and JD-S, who had post-poll and pre-poll alliances for the Lok Sabha and state Assembly elections in May 2019 and May 2018, queered the pitch for the BJP, denying it the chance to win a third seat.
