BJP mocks CM, ‘confers best actor’ award on him

Bengaluru, Jul 16: A day after his tearful address to his partymen, the BJP mocked Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Sunday, by terming him as the “best actor” giving a “brilliant performance”.

Posting a video clip showing Kumaraswamy weeping at a JD(S) party event on Saturday, BJP Karnataka tweeted, “& the best acting award goes to.. (Kumaraswamy). Our country has produced talented actors. Actors who have mesmerised the audience with their brilliant performance. Here we have another legendary actor Mr Kumaraswamy, an actor who has constantly fooled common man with his amazing acting skills.”

BJP leader and Union Minister of Statistics and Programme Implementation D V Sadananda Gowda expressed doubts over Kumaraswamy’s intentions of visiting Kodagu.

Speaking to reporters a day after Kumaraswamy said that he would spend two days in the rain-ravaged district, Gowda said, “I am not sure if the chief minister will be making a jolly trip to Kodagu by visiting resorts or if he will seriously address the problems of the district. It’s not right on his part to play favourites or restrict himself to certain regions or communities.”

Referring to a video of class 8 boy Kalera Fateh, taking a dig at him for “neglecting” Kodagu district in his budget, a visibly agitated Kumaraswamy had claimed that he was being unnecessarily targeted (by the opposition and the media).

He had also aired suspicions about the BJP being behind the video which has gone viral.

Gowda said Kumaraswamy was free to get the entire matter investigated.

He also took jibes at Kumaraswamy for repeatedly breaking down in public fora.

Noting that Kodagu was not only one of the major tourist attractions in the state, it was also the major source of water to southern Karnataka, the BJP leader said Kumaraswamy should have allocated at least Rs 100 crore to Kodagu in his budget.

Gowda said as chief minister, he and B S Yeddyurappa had set aside Rs 50 crore and Rs 100 crore, respectively, for the development of the district.

Wayanad, April 7: The Kerala government has allowed people from border villages of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu to use medical facilities at Wayanad.

"We have opened our borders to people from neighbouring states who require medical facilities in Kerala. Twenty-nine people from Bairakuppa in Karnataka have used medical facilities in Wayanad and 44 from Tamil Nadu," Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said on Monday.

Bairakuppa, a small village in Karnataka, is separated by the river Kabini from Wayanad district and the residents there depend on the healthcare facilities available in Wayanad.

Speaking to news agency, Adeela Abdulla, District Collector of Wayanad, said that instructions have been issued to allow people from neighbouring states of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, who need medical facilities, to cross the border.

"Right from the start of the lockdown, we have not restricted individuals from Bairakuppa region in Mysore district to use the medical facilities in Wayanad as people in that region depend on medical facilities in Wayanad," she said.

Mangaluru, Apr 19: District-in-charge Minister Kota Srinivas Poojary said that Rs 2000 each has been deposited in the bank accounts of 6,122 construction workers, who are registered with the labour department in the Dakshina Kannada district. The amount will be deposited in the accounts of other registered construction workers at the earliest.

The state government had announced Rs 2000 to construction labourers who are registered and have lost their livelihood due to the on-going nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of the coronavirus. The curbs, which were imposed on March 24, have been extended till May 3. "The labourers were reeling under hardship after construction activities came to a halt," said the Minister.

Supply food

Local bodies should make arrangements to supply food for stranded labourers, destitutes and beggars in all the ULBs in Dakshina Kannada district, Poojary said. 

"No one should starve during the lockdown period. All the ULBs should identify destitutes, migrant labourers in their jurisdiction and arrange food for them. In case of necessity, the help of NGOs can also be taken," he added
The minister announced that Asha workers and health workers would collect information on people's health by visiting the houses in the district and submit a report within 10 days.
