Manglauru, May 15: The Bharatiya Janata Party in Dakshina Kannada wrested six seats from the Congress in the 2018 Assembly elections — the results of which were declared today.

The BJP won in Mangalore City South, Mangalore City North, Bantwal, Puttur, Belthangady and Moodbidri Assembly constituencies — held by the Congress.

In 2013 had won only Sullia constituency in the district. This time the BJP candidate not only retained it but also increased his winning margin.

Of eight Assembly constituencies in the district, the BJP won seven and the Congress retained the Mangaluru (erstwhile Ullal) seat.

Meanwhile, the seven defeated candidates including former minister B Ramanath Rai and K Abhayachandra Jain have demanded an enquiry into the poll rigging and EVM tampering.

After the results were declared, the seven defeated MLAs led by B Ramanath Rai lodged complaint with the returning officer claiming that they suspect EVM tampering.

“We were confident of winning all 8 seats in Dakshina Kannada. The results are shocking. We demand an impartial inquiry into the possibilities of EVM tampering,” Mr Rai said. He was accompanied by J R Lobo and B A Mohiuddin Bava, the defeated candidates of Mangaluru City South and Mangaluru City North respectively.

Cong. Govt was very good and fulfilled all the promises, good in administration and Overall development and one of the top most Govt in India, and list goes. but still BJP win the election in spite of corrupt leaders, hate mongers and looters. How it is possible?
What is the Reason? Unknown?  Think of it. there is no Anti Cong. Ale,  in karnataka
There is no any major complaint against rulers during periods. one of the best performed govt.
It is very difficult to think that people of karnataka is not ignorant and hate mongers

If we analyse the Reasons may be

1) People may not concern about Janakeeya govt and development work
2)EVM magic may be?
it is not possible to prove EVM tampering because it is highly technical and Election commission and all its engineers may be fully controlled by Sangh Parivar. so there is no value for complaint. 
To whom we complaint? 
It could be hidden agenda to rule India and its state through EVM. even supreme court and justice is loosing its value. Democracy is almost in end stage

There is a lesson to think. Analyse....
Think......think.......think...... think 

Find out the reason......

Gadag, May 9: It is the month of April, and the season of mangoes is very much here. However, the mango farmers of Gadag are suffering huge losses amid the coronavirus lockdown due to the absence of transportation facilities along with several other issues that have been impacting their business adversely.

Speaking to media persons, Vishwanath Odugowdar, a mango farmer said, "Due to transportation problems we are not being able to export mangoes to different countries. We are trying to sell them in nearby markets."

"We are not in a situation to pack, transport and export the mangoes to different countries as we did earlier especially 
when it comes to Alphonso mangoes which is one of the most loved varieties. So, we are packing mangoes at our place. Somehow this year we have got very good quality of mangoes," he added.

Farmers here are incurring huge losses as mandis and markets across the country are shut while the transport of Alphonso mangoes has also come to a halt owing to the lockdown.

The small and medium scale farmers in places like Gadag, Dharwad, Bagalkote in north Karnataka have started packing the mangoes themselves in their farms in a bid to sell the fruit themselves.

Mangaluru, July 29: Justifying the transfer of Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh, district in-charge minister Kota Shrinivas Poojari has accused Mangaluru MLA U T Khader of politicizing the issue. 

The IAS officer was transferred by the Karnataka government on July 28, a day after a saffron activist issued a death threat against her on social media after she warned of legal action against the miscreants who attack cattle traders.

Condemning the development, Mr Khader had tweeted that the state government has punished the deputy commissioner instead of punishing the culprit, who issued death threat.

Responding to Mr Khader’s tweet, Mr Poojari said that the transfer of the officer was on administrative ground. “It is unfortunate that Khader politicized a transfer carried out by the government on administrative ground. This is not Khader’s time to protect any accused,” tweeted Mr Poojari. 

It is worth mentioning here that Mr Khader was the district in-charge minister of Dakshina Kannada before Mr Poojari taking over the position. 

Meanwhile, police has arrested a person in connection with the death threat against the IAS officer.
