Bengaluru, Jan 1: The Karnataka BJP will come out with a charge sheet on the “failures” and “non-implementation” of the promises made by the Congress government by January 16.

The youth wing of the party will then disseminate the contents of the charge sheet to each and every household in all 224 Assembly constituencies between February 15 and 22.

A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting chaired by BJP national president Amit Shah to review the Assembly poll preparedness of the party at a private resort on the outskirts of the city on Sunday.

The meeting was attended by top state leaders, functionaries, state election in-charge Prakash Javadekar and Piyush Goyal.

Briefing reporters, Union Minister Ananth Kumar said conventions of the SC/ST, OBC and women morchas of the party will be organised in each of the Assembly constituencies in February.

Micro-level planning

He said the party had constituted around 55,000 booth committees across the state. As a step forward, the party will appoint an “in-charge” for every 30-50 voters.

“Usually, the list in a polling booth has around 900 voters and runs into 25 to 30 pages. We will appoint an incharge for each page in the list. The incharge will have built a rapport with the voters entrusted to him by the time elections are held,” Kumar said.

He said the Nava Karnataka Nirmana Parivarthana Yatra led by party state president B S Yeddyurappa was getting excellent response across the state.

“The yatra has entered the 145th constituency. In contrast, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is on government tour only in constituencies won by the Congress, while JD(S) president H D Kumaraswamy has given up his yatra mid-way,” Kumar said.

BJP leaders B S Yeddyurappa, Jagadish Shettar, K S Eshwarappa, among others, were present.

Wah what a joke,  BJP is built on foundation of LIES.

His dad Modi has promised each citizen 15Lakh rupees. Did he give him. Yes he gave it to Industrialists.

Modi and BJP is full of lies, and troubles to everyone

 

Amit shah is a big criminal in Gujarat, he orchestered a big distruction of minorities.

Now talking in Karnataka for Siddaramiah's  honesty.

 

This is the record, no chief minister in the whole country like Sidduji.

 

BJP, shah, Modi should be ashamed to question  Siddu's  honesty.

Bengaluru, May 17: Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister and Transport Minister Laxman Savadi on Sunday wrote to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari requesting to issue new lockdown guidelines including permission to operate public transport and said the lockdown has caused a financial loss of Rs 16,00 crore to all four Karnataka Transport Undertakings.

In view of these problems, the state Transport Minister requested Gadkari to permit the deployment of Non-AC buses on scheduled routes to ensure the adequacy of services.

The four State Transport Undertakings (STUs) in Karnataka which are providing bus-based public transport services within the state and to the neighbouring states are Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC), North West Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (NWKRTC), North Eastern Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (NEKRTC) and Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC).

"KSRTC, NWKRTC and NEKRTC operate buses for mofussil services i.e. Interdistrict, intradistrict and interstate, whereas BMTC operates only in urban and suburban areas in the city of Bengaluru. The four STUs put together hold a fleet of about 24,900 buses including 1,520 air-conditioned buses and operate about 71.00 lakh km. per day and carries about 98.00 lakh passengers every single day," Savadi outlined in the letter.

The Minister said due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the lockdown that ensued have brought regular bus operations and functioning to a grinding halt.

"This has caused a devastating impact on the operations of all the four STUs due to the combination of lack of revenue and continuing fixed costs such as salaries and pensions to staff, payables against existing loans etc. It has been estimated that the lockdown has caused a financial loss of INR 1,600/- crore to these four STUs," he added.

Savadi said even after post-COVID lockdown, operations and revenues won't reach its previous demand& supply patterns in the next six to eight months due to reduced economic activity and users' perceived risk of contacting COVID in public transport.

In addition to that, "occupancy should be allowed up to seating capacity (without standees). This is essential to meet minimal demand," he said in the letter.

"The crew should wear facemask and hand gloves. The crew with health issues should not be deployed. The face masks should be made mandatory for all the passengers. Only asymptomatic persons should be allowed to travel in public transport. The Government of India may consider staggering working hours for various sectors to reduce peak hour traffic demand," the minister listed out these recommendations in the letter.

Savadi said that with social distancing norm of reduced seating capacity in public transport, it will not be possible to provide transport facility to all the daily passengers. This will create demand for more buses, which cannot be met.

"Restrictions on public transport will lead to passenger commute by overcrowding in smaller vehicles like cars, maxi cabs, goods tempos etc. which will adversely affect preventive measures," he added.

Therefore, Savadi requested Union Minister to look into the above matter and issue fresh guidelines to all the states / UT's.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: After the swearing-in of ten former JDS and Congress MLAs, political boundaries seem to have become more fluid, with little clarity on who is on whose side. When Honnali BJP MLA Renukacharya visited senior Congressman DK Shivakumar at the latter’s residence, many eyebrows were raised over the reason behind the meeting. There was speculation over why Renukacharya would be meeting a man who is, in all likelihood, slated to be the next KPCC president.

Renukacharya reacted to the rumours by making the meet sound purely professional. He said, “We have a three-day Krushi Sammlan in Honnali, and I went to invite him (DKS) for it.’’   Shivakumar also remained tight-lipped over the real reason behind the meeting, and corroborated Renukacharya’s story. However, insiders claim that the two discussed other issues too. It may be recalled that Renukacharya had openly rebelled against Yediyurappa in 2009.
