The protesters, who gathered in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner in the city, held Mr Siddaramaiah completely responsible for the suicide spree of farmers in Karnataka and a recent Supreme Court verdict on Cauvery issue in favour of Tamil Nadu.

Addressing the protesters, Nalin Kumar Kateel, Member of Parliament from Dakshina Kannada constituency, called Mr Mr Siddaramaiah a “murderer” and “cheat”.

“Mr Siddaramaiah had once called Prime Minister Narendra Modi a murderer. Now the people of Karnataka have realised that Mr Siddaramaiah himself is a murderer. A large number of farmers had to end their lives because of the anti-farmer policies of Karnataka government. Several police officers also committed suicide unable to bear torture and harassment from this government.

Shantaveerappa Gowda, State president of BJP Raita Morcha, Rajeev Bhandary, District president of BJP Raita Morcha and Sanjeeva Matandoor, District president of BJP also spoke on the occasion.

raitha morcha... i can't see any raita in the above picture.. only bjp workers.

what siddaramaiah can do on cauvery or farmers suicide. cauvery issue ordered by supreme court and farmers taking extreme steps for their loan burden.

Blaming other party is an easy task. Solving a problem is a difficult task. What did BJP as a ruling party do to solve this problem during the tenure of Yeddy, DVS and Shettar? Bull shit.

CM for what. he not even responded to normal peoples issue on cauvery water. 4 days protest, curfew if he cannot stop this, why we need CM like him.

Bjp shut your mouth, kateel is a big criminal, Murderer

Bjp murdabad, Congress Jindabad.

Bjp seriously u guys are gone mad. suicides cannot be called as murders. farmers should take their own responsibility.. why only blaming govt.

BJP is out of mind.. farmers suicide is a trend now, they know their family will get lakh of rupees. and also many burden because of the loan they have taken from the bank, not only farmers here normal people also a loan defaulters of bank unable to pay the loan they will take extreme step but in karnataka for farmers suicide only matters.

Yes siddaramaiah is a big murderer.

In Mangaluru pro-CAA rally Rajnath Singh rakes up Kashmiri Pundit issue

January 27,2020

Mangaluru, Jan 27: No power can now stop Kashmiri Pandits from going back to Kashmir, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Monday, forcefully defending the NDA government’s decision to reorganise Jammu and Kashmir and abrogating its special status under Article 370.

Addressing a massive pro-CAA, NRC rally organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party at Gold Finch city, Kuloor, on the outskirts of the city, the Defence minister also sent a strong message to Pakistan and said India will not let anyone live in peace if it is harmed.

"We will not touch anyone, but if someone bothers us, then we are not going to let them live in peace," he said.

Referring to the exodus of a large number of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in the late 1990s at the height of militancy, Singh said no power now can stop them from returning to their homes.

On the Citizenship Amendment Act, the minister said it is not a law to hurt the sentiments of any religion but to give relief to victims of religious persecution.

Mahatma Gandhi had told Nehru to give citizenship to minorities like Hindus and Sikhs if they come to India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has fulfilled that vision by bringing in the law, Singh said.

On several non-BJP states refusing to implement the CAA, the defence minister said it it is a central law and everyone should follow it.

Accusing the Congress of misleading people on the issue, he said the party should not forget its duty towards the nation just because it is in opposition.
