Cong-JD(S) won by distributing liquor and money: BSY over BJP’s bypoll debacle

Bengaluru, Nov 6: Opposition Leader in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly and BJP State President B S Yeddyurappa today said that the party’s win in Shivamogga Lok Sabha was overwhelming, but the party will examine the defeats in its stronghold Ballari parliamentary seat.

Speaking to reporters here on Tuesday, he claimed that the Congresss-JD(S) Coalition Government has misused the official machinery and indulged in distribution of liquor and money. 

‘’It is true that it would have been extremely satisfying had won Ballari Lok Sabha and Jamakhandi Assembly seats. But in Shivamogga too, we had expected a huge margin. However, our victory in there with BJP winning by a margin of over 52,000 votes is really impressive given the fact that we fought the might of the joint force of both the Congress and the JDS besides shameless misuse of official machinery,’’ Mr Yeddyurappa said.

The BJP leader said the party’s performance of polling 2.44 lakh votes in the traditional weak region of Mandya was heartening. This will enable us to strengthen the party further socially and geographically in the coming days.

‘’Congress and JDS are the past-masters in the art of con game and plotting. They have proved this in the just-concluded by-elections. The Undemocratic attitude of the JDS was further proved by in Ramanagara. We will exercise caution over the conspiracy of the Congress and JDS. We will not sit silent over this partial success of our party. We have lost only Ballari. We will introspect the results of Ballari and move ahead,’’ Mr Yeddyurappa warned.

He said BJP was confident of winning maximum seats, above 17 won in 2014 election. ‘’ We are confident that the 2019 Lok Sabha elections will be completely ours. The remarkable performance of the BJP government at the Centre under the dynamic and visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi will enable us to romp home to victory in maximum number of Lok Sabha seats. We are confident of winning 22 to 23 parliamentary seats’’.

Mr Yeddyurappa said he would undertake the tour of the entire State to strengthen the party cadre at the grass-root level. At the same time, the BJP will place before the people the lust for power of the coalition government. BJP has proved that it has the strength to face the combined force of the Congress and JDS.

‘’ We will prove it again in the coming days. The Karnataka High Court has castigated the coalition government on the issue of transfer of officials. This is sufficient to showcase the style and substance of governance of the Congress-JDS coalition regime,’’ he added in a statement issued here on Tuesday.

Mangaluru, May 4: Bunder Shramika Sangha (BSS) general secretary B K Imthiyaz on Monday urged the district administration to restart Bengre ferry and passenger boat services as it has affected the wholesale market in Old Port.

A majority of the labourers engaged in loading and unloading at the wholesale market in Old Bunder hail from Bengre area. Without the ferry service, the labourers cannot come to work, said Imthiyaz.

He said no positive cases had been reported from Bengre area. Thus, the district administration should give permission for operating ferry services between 7 am and 12 noon.

Bengaluru, Jan 31: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Friday got the green signal from the BJP central leadership for the much-awaited cabinet expansion in the state and he is mostly likely to induct 11 ministers. Yediyurappa said the date of swearing-in will be decided in a day or two, although he indicated that it would most likely be held on February 3.

Currently, there are 18 ministers, including the chief minister, in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant. "Many of our suggestions have been accepted by Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP national president J P Nadda. If there are differences, we will discuss in Bengaluru and finalise it," Yediyurappa told reporters after meeting Shah in the Parliament Complex here.

Except for one or two, most of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, he said, adding there won't be any additional deputy chief ministers. However, sources said, a total of 11 ministers would be inducted into the cabinet.

"We discussed yesterday and now also. Shah has agreed to almost everything," Yediyurappa said, adding he is returning back "happy" after getting the nod for the cabinet expansion. "I am going happy," he said.

Yediyurappa had been anxiously waiting for the party high command's approval to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants. Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in the cabinet expansion, alleging he was weak and that his administration had collapsed.
