Bengaluru, Aug 29: Debunking speculation that Congress leader Siddaramaiah was trying to destabilise the coalition government, chief minister Kumaraswamy has said that the former extended all the support for the smooth functioning of the government.

“It is only because of Siddaramaiah that we are running a secure government. He will not give any sort of support for such destabilising activities, and the government will complete its five-year tenure under the protection of Siddaramaiah himself,” said the CM and urged media not to spread unnecessary rumours.

Meanwhile, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president Dinesh Gundu Rao, president also ruled out any serious differences between the coalition partners that would pose a threat to the stability of the State government.

He said that the coalition was forged in Karnataka to keep BJP at bay from getting to power. The Congress has clarity on the responsibilities that it should discharge to ensure the smooth functioning of the government, he said.

Regarding Siddaramaiah’s statement that he wanted to become CM once again, Rao said, “Siddaramaiah’s statements have been blown out of proportion. When the audience at a public meeting in Hassan district said that he should become CM again, Siddaramaiah responded in a casual manner that the wishes of the people would be fulfilled. Later, he has clarified that such development may take place only after the present government completes its term.”

When quizzed on Kumaraswamy’s recent statement that efforts were being made to destabilise his government, Rao said, “Kumaraswamy has not said that any Congress leader is trying to destabilise the government. His allegations are pointed towards the BJP,” he said. Rao alleged that to destablise the government, Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa was contacting Congress and JD(S) MLAs regularly.

Bengaluru, Jul 10: Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers under the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) on Friday held protests in different parts of Karnataka, demanding personal protective equipment (PPE) kits and a salary of at least Rs 12,000 per month.

According to Madhu Kumari, an ASHA worker from Kalaburgi, ASHA workers currently receive a salary of Rs 3,000 per month.

"Our demand is to increase our wages to at least Rs 12,000 per month. We have been making this demand for the last six months but we have not received any response from the authorities. We will not go back to work until we are given an appropriate response. We did not want to create a difficult situation but the government has given us no choice," Kumari told ANI.

"We have been taking care of COVID patients for the last few weeks but have not received adequate PPE kits. A few of us received some in the beginning but they were not enough. We are not even given hand sanitiser or masks to protect ourselves," she added.

"We have sent letters to the District Commissioner's Office and to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare but our pleas have gone unheard. We are protesting to get the attention of the concerned authorities," she added.

They also demanded that authorities to conduct their COVID-19 tests as they have to deal with patients infected with the virus.

Sajida, an ASHA worker in Kalaburagi said, "We are very stressed about the COVID situation. We take care of sick people day in and day out, but no one is there to take care of us. We want the government to conduct COVID tests for all ASHA workers in the state."
