Bengaluru Feb 3: BJP State President Yeddyurappa on Friday accused the ruling Congress of making efforts to prevent people from reaching Palace Grounds, the venue of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pre-election rally in Bengaluru on February 4.

Speaking to reporters after reviewing the preparations for the rally, Yeddyurappa said the Congress' efforts will not materialise thanks, to the huge popularity of Modi among the people. The rally will be a "landmark" in Karnataka politics and an attendance of three to four lakh is expected, he said.

The BJP on Friday commenced a yajna to seek "divine intervention" for the protection of cow in Bengaluru.

The BJP cow protection cell started the "Ashtayama yajna" at Sathya Ganapathi Temple in JP Nagar and the ritual will conclude on Saturday.

According to the organisers, the yajna was being performed to create awareness among the people about the multi-dimensional importance of cow.

Good initiative, after the Yajna, let these thugs throw into Yajan Pit of Fire all owners, directors and senior officials  of 5 Major Beef exporting houses in India. Let them also throw into fire all those BJP Central & State leaders who are dependent on BEEF EXPORTERS' contribution of money for election expenses. Why cant these humbugs ask PAKODA leader to BAN BEEF EXPORT???  Karnataka will never tolerate these pathetic liars frustrating jokes.

Why are these politicians are so selective. Yajna for cow only for karnataka? Why not for Goa also. Coz they may loose election there. Shame on this people they bring politics in faith also and playing with sentiments of people.

Bengaluru, Jul 7: Former Health minister and Congress MLA UT Khader has alleged that the state government has purchased coronavirus equipment for more than twice the actual price.

"Rs 500 sanitizers have been purchased for Rs 900 and Rs 9,000 has been paid to Rs 1200 for the thermal metre by the government. Instead of asking to allow him to work, Mr B Sriramulu, being health minister he must work for the people," he said.

He said that three months have passed since the pandemic started but the state government is still struggling to send ambulances to needy patients.

"Instead of ambulance it is sending final rights vehicle to needy people," Khader said.

According to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, there are 23,474 coronavirus cases in Karnataka including 13,255 and 372 deaths.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Wednesday urged Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa to waive all property taxes in urban local and rural panchayats for a period of one year as citizens are bearing a huge financial brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Taking to Twitter, Shivakumar wrote, "Citizens are bearing a huge financial brunt of the Corona Pandemic. It's imperative on the government to ease the financial burden on citizens. I urge CM B.S. Yediyurappa to waive all property taxes, in urban local bodies and rural panchayats, for a period of one year on humanitarian grounds."
In yet another demand, Shivakumar on Tuesday said the state government should give details of the amount it spent on migrants and labourers during the coronavirus crisis if it is transparent.

"The image of Karnataka has come to a very rotten position. We all know that Karnataka has failed in sorting out the problem. Let them (the state government) tell what has been the amount spent on the labour, migrants and food kits on the health department. We want an account (of the expenditure) if they are so transparent," Shivakumar said.

He said the state government should have approached the hospitals for treating COVID-19 patients and if any private hospital refused, a message should have been given that the government would take it over.

He also accused the state government of corruption.
