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.

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.

Shivamogga, Jul 24: The protest by Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) under the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) entered its 14th day on Friday demanding personal protective equipment (PPE) kits and a salary of at least Rs 12,000 per month.

They have been protesting in different parts of Karnataka since July 10.

Staging a protest in front of the deputy commissioner's office, the ASHA workers complained of the government turning a deaf ear to their problems.

Clad in their signature pink saris, they raised slogans to demand appropriate salary for their work and the necessary equipment to protect them from the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. 

They said that they worked tirelessly during the COVID-19-induced lockdown without any safety. The department only provided them with sub-standard equipment to combat the deadly virus. All they were asking for is a basic pay of Rs 12,000 against the current pay of Rs 6,000.

Prema, an ASHA said, "The authorities are praising our work, clapping for us and showering flowers on us but are not listening to our grievances."

Bengaluru, Feb 13: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Thursday said the government had initiated measures to implement the Sarojini Mahishi report as the 12-hour Karnataka bandh call by several pro-Kannada organisations under the banner of Karnataka Sanghatanegala Okkoota began on Thursday.

“Government always stood for Kannada and Kannadigas and initiated measures to implement the Sarojini Mahishi report,” Yediyurappa said. Meanwhile, in Bengaluru, Ola, Uber and auto services were affected even though buses were plying as usual. Security has also been beefed up in Bengaluru after stones were pelted at a Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet, though no one was injured.

Bangalore University has postponed all postgraduate (PG) exams scheduled for today. A pro-Kannada activist, Praveen Shetty, was kept under house arrest and police have detained a few people, including those involved in Cauvery protests and other bandh cases.

The organisations are demanding the implementation of a report by former union minister Sarojini Mahishi that recommends a certain percentage of jobs to Kannadigas in public sector undertakings, private companies, and multinational companies. The report was submitted in 1984 but is yet to be implemented.
