Vijayapura, Nov 11: In a major embarrassment for the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, one of its veteran activists has said that the hardline Hindutva outfit has lost its credibility by involving in all sorts of financial and moral corruption.

Addressing presspersons here on Wednesday, N. Hanume Gowda, who has been with the RSS for the last three decades, said that several leaders of the sangh have gone astray of the fundamental values of the RSS.

“Today, not only the RSS leaders but also the BJP men who have come from the RSS are involved in corruption, nepotism and dynastic politics. The BJP’s allegations against the Congress now apply to the RSS and BJP leaders themselves,” he said.

He said that the BJP accuses the Congress of practising dynastic politics. But the BJP is doing same as in the case of B.S. Yeddyurappa’s son, Murgesh Nirani’s brother, Jagdish Shettar’s brother and also the sons of several BJP leaders who are in politics.

Stating that BJP leaders such as Mr. Yeddyurappa, Mr. Shettar, Shobha Karandlaje, Anant Kumar have embezzled money, Mr. Hanume Gowda asked where such huge amount of money has come from as these people were not this rich a few decades ago.

Accusing the RSS and BJP leaders of being involved in land grabbing, he said that he faced a threat to his life when he complained about it to the government.

To a question, he said that there were countless people in the RSS who are unhappy with the functioning of the sangh and they would soon be quitting it.

He said that instead of supporting the fake Hindutva organisation such as the RSS he has now decided to extend his support to the Shiv Sena.

“I am campaigning against the BJP and supporting the Shiv Sena in the elections,” he said.

Sangayya Hiremath, party candidate in Babaleshwar constituency, was present.

Bengaluru, May 29: Karnataka Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister J C Madhuswamy on Thursday said the Centre has objected to the state's decision to increase working days at factories, and the matter would be discussed in the next cabinet meeting.

"....the Centre has raise objection to extending working days and has said it should be brought down. We will amend it....I will share the details after the next cabinet meet, the matter did not come up today (Thursday), we have received the letter," Madhuswamy told reporters in response to a question after the cabinet meeting.

He noted that a couple of states that had increased the working hours have withdrawn it. The Karnataka government had, on May 22, issued a notification allowing factories to extend working hours upto 10 hours a day and 60 hours a week till August 21. The extension of work hours is from the existing eight hours a day and 48 hours a week.

Pointing out that while announcing COVID-19 relief package, the Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa had announced Rs 5,000 per acre for maize farmers, Madhuswamy said while issuing the circular which mentioned that relief would be applicable to rabi crop, as it would not benefit many farmers.

Now, it has now been decided to give Rs 5,000 per acre to all maize farmers, irrespective of rabi or kharif. There were also several rules and regulations for barbers, autorickshaw and taxi drivers among others to claim their one-time compensation of Rs 5,000, the Minister said.

"We have decided to relax most of them (rules) other than those essential and give compensation, as regulations wouldn't have benefited many," he said. With five nominated seats of legislative council falling vacant on June 23, the cabinet has authorised the Chief Minister to nominate for 5 seats.

The cabinet also gave post-facto approval for Karnataka Repealing of Certain Enactments and Regional Law Bill 2020 that has been passed by the legislature.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: All those who met Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who has tested positive for Covid-19, in the last three-four days will have to be quarantined, Medical Education Minister Sudhakar K said on Monday.

He also said those who came in contact with Yediyurappa in a couple of programmes in the past week are being traced.

Sudhakar, a medical doctor himself, said Yediyurappa has "very mild cough and his chest is clear."

"I think eight to ten days," he told news agency when asked how long the Chief Minister would have to remain in hospital.

Sudhakar said he is also getting himself tested as a few of his office staff had tested positive.

"All those who met the Chief Minister in the last 3-4 days...ideally they should be quarantined till they receive their results/report. Those who came in contact with him in a couple of programmes will have to isolate themselves and subject themselves for testing," the Minister said.

On the Chief Minister meeting Governor Vajubhai Vala, along with Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai last Friday, Sudhakar said as a result "They also become primary contacts. Ideally, they should also be quarantined and tested."

Yediyurappa who was hospitalised on Sunday night after testing positive for Covid-19 was "doing well" and is "clinically stable", the hospital treating him said.

The 77-year old leader is being monitored by a team of doctors at the Manipal hospital here.

"He is doing well, is clinically stable and will be monitored closely by our team," the hospital said in a statement late last night.

"I have tested positive for coronavirus. Whilst I am fine, I am being hospitalised as a precaution on the recommendation of doctors. I request those who have come in contact with me recently to be observant and exercise self-quarantine," Yediyurappa had said in his tweet.

Yediyurappa was in home quarantine a couple of weeks ago, after some staff members in his home office were found infected with the virus. Subsequently, he tested negative for Covid-19.
