Udupi, Mar 13: Shiroor mutt pontiff Sri Laxmivara Teertha Swami’s decision to contest upcoming Assembly election from Udupi constituency is a political conspiracy, according to BJP leader and former Udupi MLA K Raghupathy Bhat.

Speaking to reporters, here Mr Bhat accused District in-charge Minister Madhwaraj of hatching up a conspiracy against him joining hands with the seer.

“They seer said he would contest from Udupi. But, he is all praise for Congress and Minister Pramod Madhwaraj. This is nothing but a conspiracy,” he said.

The former MLA said that BJP leaders are into convincing the seer, however, after going through a survey, a decision would be taken on the probable candidate. He said he would happily accept the party high command's decision.

Also, he denied that his own party members who are against him contesting the elections have planned and made the seer agree upon contesting. He said there is no such difference within the BJP.

Bhat said the seer, before praising the Congress, should have considered the corruption involving Congress administration in Udupi. The seer is being considered as one of the probable candidates in the list of BJP and there are also possibilities of him being considered for the party's ticket for Udupi constituency.

In Tamilandu the political glitter, spoiled the Kanchi seer, and became a scape goat in the hands of corrupt politics of ruling party. It may be a warning to this seer to think twice. As rightly said, it is not his duty

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday demanded that the state government drop its plan to provide doorstep delivery of liquor.

"After faltering in mopping up revenue, the state government is mulling over allowing doorstep delivery of liquor by enabling online sales and starting new MSIL liquor shops in rural areas. I demand that the state government drop its plans," he tweeted.

"I came to know that the excise commissioner is keen to hold talks with a private firm to enable online sale of liquor. The government should back out from such a foolish decision. Otherwise, agitation is inevitable," Kumaraswamy said.

He said opening new liquor shops or online delivery will ruin the health of society.

"Post-COVID outbreak and subsequent lockdown, people are facing financial distress, struggling to lead day-to-day life. 

The government must withdraw such an imprudent decision to deliver liquor at doorsteps. Opening new liquor shops or the decision of online delivery in times of distress like this will spoil society's health. 

It is not fair for the government to fill its coffers by robbing people's money," he said in a series of tweets.
