Hassan, Apr 29: JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda has accused Congress of destroying ant-graft watchdog Lokayukta in Karnataka and claimed credit for establishing it.

Speaking to media persons here on Saturday, the former PM also accused the Congress of indulging in low level of politics and that the people would not believe in their manifesto.

"Unable to digest the rising popularity of the JD(S), the Congress is making false allegations like the JD(S) has made adjustments with the BJP so on, so forth," he said.

"You did nothing when in power for the farmers, daily wagers and the marginalised sections of the society. How can the people repose their faith on your manifesto," Gowda said, referring to the Congress manifesto, which was released on Friday.

"Siddaramaiah crows that he will continue as chief minister, Yeddyurappa claims that he will be the next chief minister. Let the people of the state decide who will be their chief minister," Gowda said.

"Siddaramaiah has Intelligence report. He decided to contest from Badami after the Intelligence report gave thumbs down for Chamundeshwari," he said.

To a query on Congress' Muslim vote bank, Gowda said, "Has Congress adopted the Muslims," he asked.

Party state president H D Kumaraswamy has fixed my tour itinerary. Accordingly, "I will campaign at 40 constituencies across the state. I will tour my home district for two days. We do not have star campaigners. BSP chief Mayawati, Telangana CM Chandrashekar Rao and Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu have urged the voters in the state to vote the regional outfit to power," Gowda said.

Bengaluru,  Aug 4: Karnataka has seen a substantial increase in COVID-19 recovery rate, which was 5.67 per cent in the last week, state Medical Education Minister Dr. K Sudhakar said.

"Every day there is an increase in recovery rate which is higher by 9.17 per cent in Bengaluru city. The overall recovery rate of the state by Sunday evening was 42.81 per cent and it is 35.14 per cent in Bengaluru," the Minister wrote in a tweet.

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.

May 28: The Karnataka State Election Commission on Thursday announced postponement of gram panchayat polls citing the COVID-19 pandemic.

Out of 6,025 gram panchayats, the tenure of 5,800 gram panchayats will end by June-August 2020.

"After examining the feasibility of conducting general elections to gram panchayats, the State Election Commission, considering the current situation as exceptional circumstance, has decided to temporarily postpone the general elections to the gram panchayats," the SEC said in a release.

It said after examining the situation in the days to come, the decision will be taken on holding the general elections to the gram panchayats.

The CEC also states that report by Deputy Commissioners of districts on holding the elections was verified and it has been found that district administrations are involved in COVID-19 related work and there will be shortage of staff and transport facilities for the elections. Besides, there would be a problem in maintaining law and order.

Last week through a letter to Deputy Commissioners of districts, the commission had sought opinion on holding panchayat polls amid the COVID-19 crisis. It had also pointed out that electoral roll needs to be prepared and reservations had to be allocated as per the new amendments.

Stating that the state election commission's decision to postpone gram panchayat elections was against the provisions of the Karnataka Panchayat Raj Act 1993, the Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah said the Congress will question this "undemocratic act" in the court of law.

He accused the commission of playing to the BJP's tune and said the congress will protest the decision at gram panchayat level.

Opposition parties in the state, especially congress, have been demanding elections.

The government was in favour of postponement of polls and wants to have administrative committees to govern the panchayats, until the polls are held, according to government sources.

The Congress, raising apprehension about administrative committees, has accused the government of conspiring to have ruling BJP workers as its members.

A congress delegation had last week submitted a petition to State Election Commissioner B Basavaraju and urged the Commission to hold elections.

The congress had even suggested continuation of sitting panchayat members until the polls are held, instead of appointing administrative committees.
