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.

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.

Bengaluru, Jan 2: Former chief ministers of Karnataka Siddaramaiah and H D Kumaraswamy on Thursday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he embarked on a two-day visit to the state attend events in Tumakuru and Bengaluru. In a series of tweets, the Congress and the JD(S) leaders took a dig at Modi for his alleged failure on various fronts.

"You did not visit Karnataka when it was devastated by floods, you did not visit Karnataka when our farmers cried for help, but all of a sudden, when you want to launch your political propaganda, you remember the innocent people of Karnataka. Wah Modi Wah!!" Siddaramaiah tweeted.

In another tweet, the Congress leader claimed Karnataka is starved of Central government funds as there were no adequate flood relief, no GST revenue loss compensation and there was a delay in the transfer of grant-in-aid.

He further said, "Before attempting to fool our people, let the people of Karnataka know when they will get their due share!" He also sought to know from Modi why the 25 MPs from Karnataka have 'turned off' their engines.

"With 25 MPs from BJP and a state government with BJP, people hoped for a double engine. Instead, all BJP representatives have turned off their engines and have become sycophants to play a tune to your idiosyncrasies. Why, are they scared of you?" Siddaramaiah said.

Seeking an explanation on various incomplete projects, the Congress leader said, "Mr Narendra Modi, people are fed up of your lies and double-edged sword comments. We want your answer today about long-standing questions on: Kalasa Banduri Yojana, Belagavi border issue, exams in Kannada, Tulu & Kodava in 8th schedule, the list goes on." Kumaraswamy too minced no words as he went on the offensive against the Centre.

In his tweets quoting newspaper reports, he said Karnataka's coffer has dried up, financial position is in doldrums and the revenue has plummeted.

"What's the reason (behind poor economic situation)? The poor economic policies of the Centre. After swallowing the GDP and development of the country, the wrong policies have affected the state too," alleged Kumaraswamy.

Quoting reports, Kumaraswamy said the Centre has denied the state's share of revenue.

"About 5.44 per cent of state's share is yet to come from the Centre. This is step-motherly attitude of the Centre towards the state," Kumaraswamy tweeted.
