Mangaluru, Feb 20: Even as the Karnataka unit of Bharatiya Janata Party has intensified campaign against ruling Congress party ahead of next year’s Assembly polls, Dakshina Kannada district unit of the saffron party on Monday staged a protest against the alleged corruptions of chief minister Siddaramaih led govt and party in the state.

A few dozens of BJP leaders and activists took part in the protest in front of the office of the deputy commissioner in the heart of the city.

Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and other firebrand speakers seized the opportunity to mock and ridicule Mr Siddaramiah while reiterating the “bribe to high command” allegations made against him by Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa.

Mr Kateel, who vociferously praised previous BJP governments of Karnataka, described the Siddaramaiah led cabinet as a bunch of corrupt and incompetent ministers. Ironically, he also said that many Congress leaders including ministers in the state (whom he called ‘corrupt’) will jump into BJP within a couple of months.

Predicting the end of the Congress government and party in Karnataka after 2018 Assembly polls, he said that Siddaramiah, who was a JD(S) leader in the past, is playing a crucial role in the destruction of the Congress party.

Former deputy speaker Yogish Bhat said that veteran leaders like Janardhana Poojary also have openly predicted the downfall of Congress under the leadership of a CM like Siddaramaiah. “We should appreciate the honesty of Mr Poojary who boldly pointed out the blunders of his party’s government,” he said.

BJP spokesperson Sulochana Bhat, district unit president of the party Sanjeeva Matandoor, former minister Nagaraj Shetty, former MLA Padmanabha Kottari were present among others.

Bachelor degree holders joining BJP to get their Masters degree in corruption. What a joke. Instead of this statement Nalin kumar could have told \ Our party is becoming more corrupt because some more corrupt politicians will join from Congress\""

Bengaluru, Mar 5: At 11 am on Friday, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa will present the State Budget for the 2020-2021 fiscal. Coming at a time when the state is facing financial challenges, the budget is expected to have minor tax shocks for citizens, while making space for big-ticket allocations to the agriculture and water resources ministries. Thursday's budget will be Yediyurappa’s seventh.

“Agriculture is our primary focus. The recent gazette notification of the Mahadayi tribunal order is a welcome move for Karnataka and we will make budgetary allocations for this too,” the CM had said.

The cut back in devolution of funds for Karnataka from the divisible pool, trimming of funds from the Union Government for Centrally-sponsored schemes and tax collections falling short of revenue targets have made matters tough for Yediyurappa. The consolation may be the part payment of one installment of GST compensation from the Centre. The GST compensation, in part for the October-November period, was released to the state in time for tabling of the budget.

Hubli, April 6: A disinfection tunnel was installed at the entrance of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) market here on Sunday.

The tunnel, installed with the help of Young India.org, sprays people with a small percentage of Sodium hypochlorite solution through nozzles in order to sanitise them before they enter the market.

"It is helpful for all the farmers, vegetable vendors and other people who are coming and going to the APMC market. This is very useful," said Jagdish Shettar, Minister of Large and Medium Scale Industries, Karnataka.

With regards to any plans of more devices being added in the near future, Shettar added: "Firstly, we will have to see what would be the public's reaction and then, later on, we will decide."

President of Confederation of Indian Industry, Hubli VSV Prasad said that the setting up of this tunnel can help curtail the spread of Coronavirus "by disinfecting the bacteria of the body".

While it was on the trial stage right now, Prasad hopes that the trial is successful and the chamber is set up in more public places. With regards to the cost of the tunnel, he said: "The cost is around Rs 1.5 Lac to Rs 2 Lac and hopefully it will come down once we go for production," he added.

Srinivas Joshi, a representative of Young India.org, speaking to news agency said: "We have added 1.8 percent of Sodium hypochlorite solution in 100 litres of water. It is pumped through high-pressure pumps and sprayed like a mist via nozzles for 3-5 seconds which is very less time to cause any kind of allergy."

"People who are allergic to chemicals should avoid going through this chamber. We are putting signboard very soon," he added.

The number of positive cases of coronavirus in the country continues to surge. As per the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases is 3,577 with 83 deaths.

Bengaluru, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

"When asked as to why salaries of ASHA workers were not hiked, while it was done for doctors and other healthcare officials, the CM requested for time to look into the matter. 

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.
