Bantwal, May 2: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Prabhakar Bhat Kallada is confident that Bharatiya Janata Party candidates will defeat Congress in five or six constituencies of Dakshina Kannada districts.

The hardline Hindutva leader, who is for the first time formally campaigning for the BJP in the assembly polls, predicted in an interview that the poll results would prove pre-poll surveys wrong. 

“There is an undercurrent of support for the BJP. I am sure the BJP will get a majority and form the government. In Dakshina Kannada district too BJP will win five to six constituencies for sure. I am confident of BJP victory in Bantwal, Puttur, Belthangady, Moodbidri and Sullia,” he said.

In 2013 Karnataka assembly polls, the BJP had managed to win only Sullia assembly constituency in Dakshina Kannada, and lost seven other seats to the Congress. However, this time the saffron party will take revenge against the Congress in most of the constituencies, according to Bhat.

Bengaluru, Apr 1: The price of petrol and diesel will go up by Rs 1.60 and Rs 1.59 per litre, respectively, from Wednesday. This is in line with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa’s decision to hike the rate of tax on petrol from 32% to 35% and diesel from 21% to 24%.

He had announced this in his March 5 Budget for 2020-21 fiscal. At present, a litre of petrol costs Rs 71.97 and diesel Rs 64.41 in Bengaluru.

The government decided to roll out the hike from Tuesday midnight going into Wednesday, April 1, after briefly considering a postponement in view of the COVID-19 crisis. 

Finance Secretary (Budget & Resources) Ekroop Caur confirmed to DH that the hike will be rolled out. 

The 3% hike on fuel tax was a key resource mobilisation measure that Yediyurappa announced in his Budget. The hike is expected to fetch the government Rs 1,500 crore. 

Yediyurappa had also announced a 6% additional excise duty on Indian Made Liquor (IML), which could help the government mop up Rs 1,200 crore. However, the sale of liquor has been prohibited during the lockdown period. Plus, hiking fuel prices during the lockdown will not hit citizens very hard.

Gadag, Aug 1: A woman in Gadag district of Karnataka mortgaged her 'mangalsutra' to buy a television set for her children following the Karnataka government's decision to continue the classes through TV amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

A resident of Radder Naganur village, Kasturi, who is also a mother of two, purchased a television set against her 'mangalsutra' for Rs 14,000. She bought the TV after her children's school teachers asked them to attend classes via the television set.

Kasturi said, "I can not send the children to the neighbours' house every day and it was necessary for them to study. We had no other option but to buy a TV set."

She said, "Both, my husband and I are daily wage workers and during coronavirus, we do not have work or money."

"I sold my 'mangalsutra' for Rs 20,000 and bought a TV for Rs 14,000," said Kasturi while happily adding, "Now, my kids can study at home itself."

Kasturi's daughter, Surekha said, "We did not have the TV for several months but now when we have it, we will study and get a bigger 'mangalsutra' for my mother."
