Bengaluru, Feb 23: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP Karnataka president BS Yeddyurappa put the focus on unemployment, farmer suicides and women's safety in the state. He was speaking Friday at a forum as part of Prajavani's 'Vision Karnataka' series.

"One of our key issues today is unemployment. Another is farmer suicides," said Yeddyurappa. "I am a farmer, and these are key agenda points for me. My pledge is to make Karnataka a model state that embodies the PM's 'Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas' initiative."

“I am the first chief minister who introduced Bhagyalakshmi Yojana for women," he said. "Employment opportunities, safety and empowerment of women are focus points not just for the state, but for all of India, as you know."

Yeddyurappa said that the police should be given a free hand when it comes to safety. "Giving a free hand to officers will ensure better law and order," he said, and "regarding crimes against women - immediate punishment."

Yeddyurappa said that his party has a long-term plan for Bengaluru, which includes focusing on the Metro, suburban railways, lake rejuvenation and making it a green city as well as a silicon city.

Unemployment of whom ? Siddaramaiah claims 15 lakhs jobs have been created but has yedduyurappa the guts to ask how many native Kannadigas got the job ?

Regarding cauvery why he did not even open his mouth on SC judgment .
Was there a gag order from Delhi high command. He did not have guts to even welcome the judgment. Probably he knows it was outright injustice to Karnataka but he is helpless and is concerned about his career ! Of course Cong & JD-S also did not have the guts.

Regarding atrocities on women nothing prevents Modi govt. making stringent laws and Karnataka will definitely welcome it. But Modi is too busy with "Man ki bath " , Foreign tours. All he knows is vandemataram & Yoga and of course mudslinging on congress which anyway it rightly deserves. 

So native Kannadigas reject the three parties BJP, Cong & Jd-S and
and bring a Kannada party to power or follow the crowd like fools
and dig your own grave. Ignore all the posts of migrants & traitors .

Shivamogga, Aug 5: Karnataka Minister KS Eshwarappa on Wednesday hailed the laying of foundation stone (bhoomi pujan) for a grand Ram temple in Ayodhya and said "Kashi Vishwanath and "Krishna Janmasthan temples have to be liberated".

"It is a good day that the foundation stone for Ram Temple has been laid. A beautiful temple will come up, but there are Kashi Vishwanath and Krishna Janmasthan temples which have to be liberated," Eshwarappa said.

The minister said that there is a "sign of slavery" at Krishna temple in Mathura and Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi.

"The whole nation is dreaming of Shri Krishna temple in Mathura and Kashi Vishwanath temple. I have visited the two temples. 

There is a sign of slavery. Mosques are there at holy places. When I visited the place at Mathura, I witnessed the wall. When we look at the wall, we feel like we are still slaves," he said.

"While visiting Kashi, there is also a structure of slavery. Dream of Hindus is fulfilled in Ayodhya. One day, it will be fulfilled in Mathura and Kashi. Mathura Sri Krishna and Kashi Vishwanath will be freed and temple will be built," Eshwarappa added.

The Places of Worship Act, enacted in 1991, says that religious character of a place of worship existing on the August 15, 1947 shall continue to be the same as it existed on that day. The Act kept Ayodhya case out of its purview.
