Bengaluru, Dec 4: The coordination committee meeting of Congress-JD(S) coalition government in Karnataka will be held tomorrow (December 5) under the chairmanship of former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

The meeting assumes significance amidst fresh attempts of Operation Kamala by Bharatiya Janata Party. However, the main agenda is expected to be the discussion on long pending cabinet expansion. Congress has 6 Ministers post to be filled as per understanding and JD(S) has to fill one post.

Among other issues which are likely to be raised in the meeting include complaints by Congress legislators regarding decreased outlay for their constituency by Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy who also holds finance portfolio.

The issue on continuation of Congress-JDS coordination for the Lok Sabha 2019 election is also likely to come up during the meeting.

Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah has accused the BJP of destabilising the government. “We have information that MLAs are offered Rs 25 crore to join the BJP. Where does the money come for peration Kamala (Lotus)? Whose money is it?” he asked while speaking to reporters.

“The BJP had made a futile attempt to come to power in the past. One needs to accept the fact that they do not have the majority. They should be ashamed to say that they will destabilise the government. They (BJP) will not be successful in destabilising the coalition government in the state,” he said.

Shivamogga, Aug 9: Minister of State for Railways Suresh Angadi on Saturday virtually inaugurated Malgudi Museum at Arasalu in Karantaka's Shivamogga.

The old station building at Arasalu has been converted into museum.
BJP MP from Shivamogga BY Raghavendra said that the old station building at Arasalu has been renovated keeping with 'Malgudi' theme in mind.

"It is a tribute to the makers of the popular television serial 'Malgudi Days' as the station features predominantly in the episodes which broadcast on Doordarshan in the 1980s," he said.

The museum has been designed by a famous artist John Devraj, who was the part of the serial Malgudi Days. The Mysore Divisional Railway funded the museum.

"The approach road and station area wear a new transformed look. The innovative idea of having a tea-shop in a narrow gauge coach at Arasalu station adds charm to the green surroundings," the MP said.

"Popular and internationally acclaimed serial Malgudi Days was shot here in Arasalu. The SWR Mysore division manager Aparna Garg helped to transform the station to fictional village Malgudi," he added.

The museum is about 30 km from Shivamogga city. It has steam engines and bogies besides collections of photographs hanging on the wall taken during the time of shooting for Malgudi Days.
