Uudpi, Apr 23: Former BJP MLA K Raghupati Bhat has urged Lakshmivara Tirtha Swami of Shiroor Mutt to withdraw nomination and support him in the upcoming Karnataka legislative elections.

The seer, who was a BJP ticket aspirant, has filed nomination papers as an independent candidate from Udupi constituency. He had earlier said he was inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but was not happy with the functioning of the local unit of the BJP and that it was mired in corruption.

Speaking to presspersons, Mr. Bhat said the seer was expecting the BJP ticket but did not get it. “So he should support me as I am the BJP candidate. That is the culture of the BJP,” he said.

To a query, Mr. Bhat said the Shiroor seer contesting as an Independent candidate would not help Congress candidate Pramod Madhwaraj as the seer would eat into not just BJP votes but also Congress votes.

He said he would seek the blessings of the Shiroor seer and the seers of the Ashta mutts. Some top leaders of the BJP have tried talk to the Shiroor seer and pacify him, Mr. Bhat added.

Bengaluru, July 23: The Janta Dal (Secular) and Congress that had joined hands together in Karnataka ‘to keep communal forces at bay, have once again turned archrivals. The development comes a year after the collapse of JD(S)-Congress coalition government in the state.

Recently, Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah claimed that the Congress would have won at least 10 seats in the Lok Sabha elections had it not been for the alliance with the JD(S). In response, former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy of the JD(S), who headed the coalition government, blamed the Congress for its many 'conspiracies'.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Kumaraswamy said he was prompted by Siddarmaiah's claims to recall what transpired during the coalition government. 

"There will never be a future alliance with Congress," Kumaraswamy declared, in a letter to his party colleagues on Wednesday. He claimed that there were many conspiracies on part of Congress, which led to the fall of the coalition government.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
