Bengaluru, Oct 24: G Parameshwara, the president of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) has openly admitted that that some leaders from his party may join the BJP ahead of the Assembly elections next year.

Speaking to media persons here on Monday he said: “The number of those quitting Congress will not be big. On the other hand at least seven legislators from the JD(S) are ready to join the Congress. Some BJP MLAs, too, are in touch with us.”

The party is considering fielding leaders coming from other parties in those constituencies where winnability of the Congress candidates is low, he said.

“In the coming days, we will discuss welcoming others to the party after assessing ground realities,” the Congress leader said.

Parameshwara held a meeting with party leaders from Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Shivamogga, Udupi, Dakshina Kannada, Chitradurga and Kodagu districts ahead of AICC vice president Rahul Gandhi’s visit next month.

“Some have urged that Rahul should visit religious mutts in the region. This will be conveyed to him,” he said.

My joining BJP is false: Prakash Koliwad

Meanwhile, Prakash Koliwad, son of Speaker K.B. Koliwad, has denied joining BJP as appeared in certain sections of the media. “The information that I am joining BJP is far from the truth,” he said.

The government of India today said it will begin evacuating its nationals stuck abroad due to the coronavirus pandemic from May 7 in a phased manner. This facility would be made available on payment basis. 

A Standard Operating Protocol has been put in place and the travel would be arranged by aircraft as well as naval ships and will be available on a payment-basis, the government said.

"Medical screening of passengers would be done before taking the flight. Only asymptomatic passengers would be allowed to travel. During the journey, all these passengers would have to follow the protocols, such as the health protocols, issued by the ministry of health and the ministry of civil aviation," it said in a statement.

Specifying the protocols upon entry in India, the government said the returning Indians would be medically screened and will have to be quarantined for 14 days, either in a hospital or in an institutional quarantine on payment-basis, by the respective state government.
