Mysuru, Oct 1: Veteran Kannada novelist S L Bhyrappa, who is known for his pro-Sangh Parivar stance, has strongly defended Prime Minister Narendra Modi over multi-billion Rafale scam.

Addressing a symposium on novel ‘Uttara Kanda’, here, Bhyrappa slammed the All India Congress Committee (AICC) president Rahul Gandhi for accusing Modi of joining hands with Anil Ambani of Reliance Group and looting crores of rupees in Rafale deal.

“In our country, it is easy to make a person step down from his position but, it is difficult to prove the allegations. Is there any punishment for those who make false allegations,” he questioned.

“Is it right to give power to Rahul Gandhi, who was born in Italy,” Bhyrappa asked. (In fact, Rahul Gandhi was born in New Delhi, the capital of India, and not in Italy)

Bhyrappa then came down heavily on chief minister H D Kumaraswamy led coalition government of Karnataka, and said the person, who is in power, must understand the financial health of the state before introducing any scheme. “It is not right to introduce the schemes to please a section of the society,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jun 24: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah criticised the current state government rates for COVID-19 treatment in private hospitals and said that the patients must be treated free of charge in all hospitals.

"The state government has fixed rates for treating COVID-19. The current rates are shocking to the people," Siddaramaiah said.
Questioning the state government, he said, "Where can people pay these rates fixed by the government per day? Looking at these rates can be heartbreaking for the people. This raises the question of whether the government is sensitive to people's issues."

"The government must promptly announce free treatment and set up a standard treatment protocol. The government should appoint a panel of experts to continuously monitor whether treatment is being properly administered and create an environment where the public is free from anxiety," Siddaramaiah added.

Karnataka on Tuesday reported 322 fresh COVID-19 positive cases and eight deaths.
According to the state health department, the total number of positive cases has mounted to 9,721 and 150 deaths. So far, 6,004 people have been discharged.
