Chitradurga Mar 15: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Thursday said that the countdown for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's regime had begun.

He was speaking at the inauguration of various development projects at Hosadurga.

"The BJP received a severe setback in the Uttar Pradesh and Bihar Lok Sabha assembly by-elections as it lost four of the five seats, including the all-important Gorakhpur and Phulpur seats in Uttar Pradesh. This indicates that the people no longer trust Modi as he often tells lies," Siddaramaiah charged.

The BJP suffered a setback on the home turf of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath while losing deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya's constituency too. Samajwadi Party candidates have clinched a win in both Gorakhpur and Phulpur constituencies. The voters in Uttar Pradesh have favoured the Samajwadi party. With the results, the countdown for Modi to step down has begun, he said.

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Continuing easing of restrictions under 'unlock-1,' the Karnataka government has allowed shooting and production of films and television programmes in the state.

In a clarification, Principal Secretary Revenue N Manjunath Prasad said, shooting and production of all films and television programmes that were stopped in between due to lockdown can be allowed.

It is also allowed to continue with the post-production activities of film and television programmes after completing the shooting, it said.

The permission is conditional as it is subjected to adhering of the national directives issued in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, and standard operating procedures prescribed by the Department of Information and Public Relations.

The clarification said permission can be given as film and television shooting and production activities are not banned under guidelines issued by the centre and the state government recently.
