Udupi, Mar 9: Days after police booked her for 'provocative' speech at a similar event, VHP leader Sadhvi Balika Saraswati has been invited by the outfit to attend its Udupi 'Virat Hindu Samajotsav' today.

The invitation comes after VHP International Working President Pravin Togadia was banned yesterday for a week from entering Udupi district of Karnataka for the Hindu Samjotsava rally.

The organisers have also invited VHP All India Secretary Surendra Kumar Jain as the main speaker at the function, VHP sources said.

Recently a case was slapped against Saraswati from Madhya Pradesh who was the key speaker at the Hindu Samajotsava held here on March 1 for allegedly disturbing communal harmony through her 'provocative utterances'.

All arrangements had been made for the programme to be held at the MGM ground at Udupi tomorrow, they said.

Udupi Superintendent of Police Annamalai and Deputy Commissioner R Vishal are camping in the town to monitor the security arrangements for a peaceful conduct of the event.

Meanwhile, Sri Rama Sene leader Pramod Muthalik alleged at a press meet today that the state government was hurting the sentiments of Hindus by banning Togadia's entry.

He also said that a ban on Hindu leaders from attending functions was aimed at suppressing the efforts of Hindu outfits to unite the community.

Bengaluru, Jul 9: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Thursday said the Covid-19 situation was “getting out of control a little” in some parts of the state, but assured citizens that authorities were taking necessary steps. 

“In some districts, it’s getting out of control a little. But the district administration and police are working day and night,” Yediyurappa said before the Cabinet meeting where the Covid-19 situation will be discussed. 

Speculation is rife that the government might consider stricter measures to curb the movement of people to try arresting the rising number of Covid-19 cases. 

Later in the day, Yediyurappa is slated to inspect the Bengaluru International Exhibition Centre, which has been converted into a Covid Care Centre with 10,000 beds. The chief minister said he had ordered “immediate” arrangement of more ambulances for Bengaluru, where cases are rapidly shooting up. 

“A team from the Centre had come. They’ve made some observations and they also appreciated us for some of the things we’ve done,” he added. 

On Friday, Yediyurappa has convened a meeting of all Bengaluru ministers, legislators, MPs and councillors to discuss the Covid-19 pandemic in the city.
