Mangaluru, Aug 16: Claiming that investigation agencies have found enough material to declare Popular Front of India as an anti-national terror outfit, Saffron leaders have urged the government to ban the organisation and invoke the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) against all its leaders.

Addressing a media conference called by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal in the city on Wednesday, VHP leader Jagadish Shenava, who is also an advocate, said that the arrest of a PFI leader in RSS worker Sharath Madiwala murder case has once again proved that the outfit believes in violence. 

“This is not the first case. The accused in the murder cases of Bajrang Dal activist Prashant Poojary (Moodbidri), RSS worker Rudresh (Bengaluru), Raju (Mysuru) also belong to PFI,” he said said.

“It is high time that union and state governments ban PFI and other outfits that have connections with it. Those organisations are trying to divide the country and destroy harmony in the society. All the leaders of such organisations should be arrested,” he demanded.  

VHP district secretary Gopal Kuthar and Bajrang Dal DK district convenor Bhujanga Kulal were present among others at the press meet.

Bengaluru, July 31: Denying irregularities in covid-19 equipment purchase by the Karnataka government, the state unit of the BJP has issued legal notices to Congress leaders Siddaramaiah and D K Shivakumar demanding that they apologize or face a defamation suit. 

The notices seek a public apology for the allegations levelled against the government on irregularities in the procurement of Covid-19 equipment and supplies. 

Both Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar, the Karnataka Congress president, have been doggedly pursuing allegations of corruption against the BJP government and have demanded a judicial inquiry. 

BJP general secretary N Ravi Kumar said that while the Congress leaders claimed that Rs 4,157 crore was spent during Covid-19, they also allege that the government has not responded to any of the 20 letters written by them. "If the government has not provided any answer to the Opposition, where did they get the figures from," he said.

None of the allegations of corruption is specific and the statements made are factually incorrect. "These statements, without any basis, have been issued calculatedly to lower the image and damage the reputation of the government, the Bharatiya Janata Party, representatives of the party and the ministers in the government," the notice issued on behalf of Ravi Kumar read.

Bengaluru, Jul 15: Karnataka Congress Chief D K Shivakumar on Wednesday urged the Ministers in the state to visit Covid-19 designated hospitals and instil confidence among patients, doctors and medical staff there.

Noting that doctors, nurses and others were doing a great job, Shivakumar said the government has to stand with them and instil confidence in them. Speaking to reporters after visiting Victoria hospital, a major dedicated Covid hospital in the city, he said, "All the Ministers have to go to hospitals and instil confidence in the staff, patients.... they have to remove fear and tell them we will have to live with this (virus), and cannot escape from it."

Shivakumar said he believes that by instilling confidence most part of the diseases can be cured. He lauded doctors, paramedical and other staff working at the Hospital for the sake of patients, putting their own life at risk and appreciated facilities provided there.

During the visit, the state Congress President interacted with patients undergoing treatment for Covid-19, also medical staff and doctors. He said at Victoria hospital patients were allowed to use mobile phones, so that they can speak to family members, which has to an extent instilled confidence among them, and the same has to be replicated across the state.

Not wishing to comment on complaints about the quality of facility and PPE kits provided at the hospital, also alleged misappropriation on part of the government in the purchase of equipment for Covid treatment, Shivakumar said, "....let's see that at Vidhana Soudha (seat of state's legislature)." He said, "this is not the time to talk about corruption and other things, this is not the time for it....instilling confidence among patients, doctors and paramedical staff is important now."
