Bengaluru, Jun 1: JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy has said that Congress is his “first enemy”, as it is making concerted efforts to dent the regional party's prospects.

1kummiSpeaking to reporters in Bengaluru on Tuesday, Kumaraswamy said that the Congress was trying to harm the prospects of the BJP in the Rajya Sabha and Legislative Council polls.

As both the JD(S) and BJP have fielded a second candidate in the Council elections, he said that he would hold talks with the saffron party leaders and decide on extending support. Both parties are short of numbers to get their second candidates elected.

He clarified that the upcoming elections were not a contest with Congress leader and Energy minister D K Shivakumar. “This is not a fight against D K Shivakumar. He is strategising to ensure that his party candidate wins and I am doing the same,” he added.

Bengaluru, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

"When asked as to why salaries of ASHA workers were not hiked, while it was done for doctors and other healthcare officials, the CM requested for time to look into the matter. 

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.
