JDS will win 113 seats in Karnataka; my brother will be CM: Revanna

Shivamogga, Nov 3: JD(S) leader and Holenarsipur MLA H D Revanna has expressed confidence that his party would win at least 113 seats in 2018 Karnataka assembly polls and his younger brother H D Kumaraswamy would become chief minister again.

Speaking to media persons he said that the party has already finalised its candidates for 140 Assembly constituencies for the elections. The meeting of the core committee of JD(S) State unit will be held shortly after which the list of 140 candidates will be released, he said.

He said that as announced earlier, the party will face the elections by projecting its State unit president H.D. Kumaraswamy as the Chief Ministerial candidate. The party is confident that he will be the CM again, he said.

Mr. Revanna said the Congress and the BJP have failed to respond to the woes of farmers in Karnataka. Owing to depletion of groundwater level and diseases triggered by successive droughts, 1.83 crore arecanut trees and over 44 lakh coconut trees have completely dried up in the State in the past three years. The farmers are unable to cultivate agricultural crops owing to scanty rain and low water storage in reservoirs, he said.

The MLA said that the Union Ministers from Karnataka have failed to apprise Prime Minister Narendra Modi of the agricultural crisis here. He said if JD(S) comes to power in the State, the crop loan borrowed by farmers from nationalised as well as cooperative banks will be waived. Taking exception to BJP’s Karnataka Parivartan Yatra, he said such political gimmicks were uncalled for when farmers were in dire straits.

Hubli, Mar 9: A Hubli court on Monday rejected the bail application of three Kashmiri students, who were booked for sedition, after their video allegedly raising pro-Pakistan slogans went viral.

The plea was filed under Section 439 of CrPC.

This comes after the Hubli Bar Association earlier withdrew its resolution against representing the three Kashmiri students and said that advocates who wish to appear for them can approach Dharwad Principal District Court to file bail plea.

The three students are Basit Ashik Sophi (19), Talib Majid (19) and Amir Mohiuddin (23). They were booked under sedition charges for raising pro-Pakistan slogan in a video shared on social media.

They were earlier transferred to Belgaum Hindalga jail from Hubli sub-jail and the case, registered in Gokul Road police station, was also transferred to the rural police station because the video was recorded in the college hostel room, which is in its jurisdiction.
