Bengaluru, Sep 28: The Congress will face the next Karnataka Assembly elections to be held in 2018 under collective leadership, according to G Parameshwara, president of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee.

congReplying to a query by media persons on who will lead the party in 2018 polls, he said: “The Congress believes in collective leadership. Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi are our leaders...We will go to polls under collective leadership.”

The state Congress executive committee, which held its meeting here on Tuesday, chalked out a series of programmes with dual intention to organise the party and prepare it for the Assembly elections.

The party will be launching Grama Swaraj Samavesha from October 2 on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti at Vidurashwatha in Gauribidanur taluk of Chikkaballapur district, Parameshwara stated.

The KPCC president said the party will take out a padayatra – Congress Nadige Surajyada Kadege – across all the 224 Assembly constituencies as part of Gram Swaraj Samavesha. The aim of the programme is to send out a message that the Congress stands for social justice and development of all sections of society. The party workers will be informed of the achievements of the state government.

Asked how the party will defend itself on the issue of making the Karnataka Lokayukta a defunct institution, he said the government had made a recommendation to Governor Vajubhai Vala for appointing the Lokayukta. But the Governor had rejected it.

Bureau has been established to fight corruption along with the Lokayukta, and it is functioning effectively, Parameshwara, who is also the Home Minister, said.

AICC general secretary incharge of Karnataka affairs Digvijaya Singh, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Congress leader in the Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge and senior ministers attended the meeting.

Mandya, July 30: BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel on Wednesday said Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa has done a commendable job in tackling the Covid-19 situation and floods and that the question of changing the leadership does not arise.

Karnataka on Wednesday reported 5,503 new cases of Covid-19 and 92 related fatalities, taking the total number of infections to 1,12,504 and the death toll to 2,147.

Speaking to reporters here, Kateel said, "Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi has gone to Delhi to discuss the projects sanctioned to state with the central minister. There is no need to read too much into it."

Replying to a query on graft charges against the BSY government by the Congress, Kateel said, "Congress national president, state unit president are out on bail in graft cases . Why did a Congress leader who calls himself a bande (rock) has approached court seeking stay on CBI probe? Before making any allegations against the government, they should think about 'irregularities' in Indira Canteen and housing schemes," he charged.

Instead of instilling confidence and hope among the people in these testing times, the Congress is unnecessarily creating fear with petty politics, he told reporters in Shravanabelagola, Hassan district.

"The Yediyurappa-led BJP government is working day and night to tackle the Covid-19. Similarly, several non-governmental organisations have joined hands with the government in the fight against the virus. But, the Congress is only creating confusion by issuing baseless statements," Kateel said.

Kuwait: The Covid-19 pandemic has pushed the whole world into a difficult situation and the situation of Indians in Kuwait is not any different. Many people have lost their jobs, have no salary, are deprived of food and are not able to pay rent. The appalling conditions of labourers, domestic workers, taxi drivers and low waged earners don’t seem to end in Kuwait. 

At this trying situation when many people were even afraid of leaving their houses because of coronavirus, Suresh S. Rao Neramballi, volunteer of the Food Kit Distribution at the ICSG (Indian Community Support Group) has helped many tremendously. He was ready to go around delivering food kits at any time possible by his car. However, after Kuwait imposed a full curfew from 11th May 2020, no one could take out their vehicles unless they had a curfew pass. 

This did not stop Mr. Suresh Neramballi, who then borrowed a bicycle from a friend and ended up going around in the cycle delivering the food kits in curfew break time (4:30pm to 6:30pm) to all those who registered in the ICSG website. This selfless service surely commands appreciation and applause. Mr. Suresh Neramballi has been a light for many families and bachelors in Kuwait and will surely garner the blessings of them who have been able to eat at this time.

He was also the one who could deliver the food kits to many Indian Muslim maids, bachelors, laborers and families previous day and right on the day of EID, as they were not able to go shopping for their groceries for EID, due to the curfew. They blessed him in EID dua. 

Mr. Suresh Neramballi hails from Mangaluru, India and is an Engineer in the Oil sector company in Kuwait. He has been dedicated to social service, achieved 'Aryabhata International Award' for his Kannada Service and Social service, served in many Associations and Distributor of Kannada and Tulu Movies in Kuwait. He wholeheartedly thanks the people and government of Kuwait for his bread and butter.
