Cong betrayed Muslims; I will ensure top position for BM Farooq: Gowda

Bengaluru, Jun 13: The JD(S)?has decided to portray the defeat of its Rajya Sabha candidate B?M?Farooq as a betrayal of the Muslims by the Congress and will launch a statewide campaign to prove its point.

JD(S) national president H?D?Deve Gowda announced the decision at a well-attended convention of party office-bearers and leaders at Palace Grounds in Bengaluru on Sunday. The JD(S)' decision to play the betrayal card comes a day after eight of its MLAs defied party whip to vote for K?C?Ramamurthy of the Congress in polls to the Upper House.

Speaking at the convention, 84-year old Gowda showed no sign of helplessness or anger.

The JD(S) supremo said he will launch the campaign from Mangaluru, the home town of Farooq, from June 21 and cover the entire state. “The Congress has betrayed 75 lakh Muslims in the state by colluding with 8 legislators of our party to ensure the defeat of Farooq. The Congress gave no representation to Muslims in the RS polls,”?Gowda said.

To groom new leaders

The former prime minister said he was unfazed by the cross-voting eight rebels had cross-voted. “Let us see if any of them can win in the next Assembly polls. I take it as a challenge. I?will personally groom new leaders in each of their constituencies,” he said.

Gowda said he always suspected that the trio - MLAs Zameer Ahmed Khan, N?Chaluvarayaswamy and H?C?Balakrishna - wanted to finish his son and JD(S)?state president H?D?Kumaraswamy off politically. “I had warned Kumaraswamy that it is better to trust an open enemy than a false friend.” ?

Potshots at?BSY

Gowda also took potshots at BJP?state president B?S?Yeddyurappa for seeking the “support” of the Congress to get the party's second candidate in the polls to the Legislative Council, Lehar Singh, elected.

“Yeddyurappa speaks about winning 150 seats in the 2018 Assembly polls but stoops down to seek the support of the Congress for just one Council seat. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is speaking about Congress-free' country, but Yeddyurappa seems to be on a Save Congress' mode,” Gowda said.

Top position for Farooq

Gowda said he will ensure a top political position for Farooq in the coming days. “Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Energy Minister D?K?Shivakumar had threatened Farooq that his business will be destroyed, if he does not withdraw from the polls. But, he stayed with us. I?will not betray him,” Gowda said.

Roadmapfor JD(S) revival

?To groom new leaders in constituencies represented by eight rebels

Statewide campaign from June 21 starting from Mangaluru

?To rebuild the JD(S) from the grassroots

?To expose the “misdeeds”of the Congress and the BJP

Bengaluru, Jul 10: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah on Thursday condemned the decision of the HRD Ministry to drop chapters on citizenship, secularism and federalism from Class 11 political science syllabus, stating that this will "deprive a generation of students from understanding the important pillars of Indian democracy".

"I strongly condemn the decision of @HRDMinistry to drop chapters on citizenship, secularism and federalism. This will deprive a generation of students from understanding the important pillars of Indian democracy. #Stop Saffronisation Of Education," Siddaramaiah tweeted.

The Congress leader further alleged that BJP does not believe in the principles of citizenship, secularism and federalism.

"Chapters on citizenship, secularism and federalism are dropped from Class 11 Pol Science. syllabus. Does this explain something? Yes, it explains that @BJP4India doesn't believe in these principles and validates its past behaviour," he said in another tweet.

Earlier in the day, Union Human Resource Development (HRD) Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank rejected criticism over alleged conspiracy in CBSE's decision to reduce the syllabus of schools due to COVID-19 outbreak and urged the critics to "leave politics out of education".

"There has been a lot of uninformed commentary on the exclusion of some topics from #CBSESyllabus. The problem with these comments is that they resort to sensationalism by connecting topics selectively to portray a false narrative," the Union Minister tweeted.

"It is our humble request:#Education is our sacred duty towards our children. Let us leave politics out of education and make our politics more educated," he added.

The CBSE has revised the syllabus for the classes IX to XII during the academic session 2020-21 in the wake of the situation created by COVID-19.

In a circular issued to all the heads of the institutions affiliated to it, the CBSE had said that the revision of syllabi has been done due to the extraordinary situation prevailing in the country and different parts of the world.
