Mangaluru, Feb 20: Even as the Karnataka unit of Bharatiya Janata Party has intensified campaign against ruling Congress party ahead of next year’s Assembly polls, Dakshina Kannada district unit of the saffron party on Monday staged a protest against the alleged corruptions of chief minister Siddaramaih led govt and party in the state.
A few dozens of BJP leaders and activists took part in the protest in front of the office of the deputy commissioner in the heart of the city.
Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and other firebrand speakers seized the opportunity to mock and ridicule Mr Siddaramiah while reiterating the “bribe to high command” allegations made against him by Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa.
Mr Kateel, who vociferously praised previous BJP governments of Karnataka, described the Siddaramaiah led cabinet as a bunch of corrupt and incompetent ministers. Ironically, he also said that many Congress leaders including ministers in the state (whom he called ‘corrupt’) will jump into BJP within a couple of months.
Predicting the end of the Congress government and party in Karnataka after 2018 Assembly polls, he said that Siddaramiah, who was a JD(S) leader in the past, is playing a crucial role in the destruction of the Congress party.
Former deputy speaker Yogish Bhat said that veteran leaders like Janardhana Poojary also have openly predicted the downfall of Congress under the leadership of a CM like Siddaramaiah. “We should appreciate the honesty of Mr Poojary who boldly pointed out the blunders of his party’s government,” he said.
BJP spokesperson Sulochana Bhat, district unit president of the party Sanjeeva Matandoor, former minister Nagaraj Shetty, former MLA Padmanabha Kottari were present among others.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
