Mudigere, Dec 30: B S Yeddyurappa, the Karnataka state unit president of Bharatiya Janata Party has said that his party would implement death sentence to rapists within 24 hours of coming to power in Karnataka.

Speaking at BJP’s parivarthana yathra in Mudigere on Saturday, he said that the Congress has no moral right to speak on Dr B R Ambedkar. The Congress had conspired against Ambedkar during the election, he said. The Congress did not even allow his memorial in Rajghat. It was with the help of the BJP during V P Singh's tenure that Ambedkar was conferred Bharath Ratna award, he claimed.

Yeddyurappa said there has been an increase in atrocities on women after the Congress government came to power in Karnataka. A total of 3,102 sexual assault cases, 2534 murders, 430 kidnap and atrocities on 19,000 female students have taken place in the state which points a finger at the failure of the state government, he added.

"The BJP is committed to the safety of women and will frame rules to provide death sentence to rapists after coming to power," he said.

Union Minister D V Sadananda Gowda said that Bhairapura-Shishila road has been included in Sagarmala project.

MP Shobha Karandlaje said the Congress which ruled the country for seven decades did not take any measures to distribute LPG to the poor. The NDA government led by Narendra Modi implemented Ujwala scheme to distribute LPG to the poor, she added.

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.

Tightening control over companies misleading advertisements of medicines and products, the Indian government could soon slap a fine of up to Rs10 lakh and up to two years' imprisonment. While repeat offender could be fined up to Rs50 and imprisonment up to five years.

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare's new draft of the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) (Amendment) Bill, 2020, provides extremely stringent penalties compared to the current law.

Under the new Act, companies advertising medicines and products falsely claiming to make a person fairer, improve height and memory or cure issues like hair loss or greying and premature ageing, among several others, may attract more stringent fines and jail time.

The current Act, 1954, leaves scope for companies to create deceptive advertisements as first time offender can be jailed for six months while repeat offender can be up to one year in prison, reported The Indian Express.

Under the Bill, deceptive advertisements will cover digital advertising, notice, circular, label, wrapper, invoice, banner and poster, among others. The government also plans to expand the scope of the law under the proposed amendments to cover 24 more deceptive claims not included in the current law, like medicines that can cure AIDS, change the sex of a foetus, among others, reported Livemint.
