Bengaluru, Dec 17: Congress is setting fire on various issues in the country, according to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh. Addressing a public meeting held in Bengaluru as part of Bharatiya Janata Party’s state-wide Parivarthana rally on Sunday, he said that it was BJP which was trying to douse the fire and not the other way round.

“We have been dousing fire set by the Congress in the country,” the minister said responding to the statement by newly-elected Congress party president Rahul Gandhi, who on Saturday accused the BJP of stoking fire in the country. Mr. Singh was addressing a public meeting held in Bengaluru as part of BJP’s state-wide Parivarthana rally on Sunday.

“It is not BJP’s policy that led to birth of terrorism or naxalism. BJP’s policy did not lead to 1984 violence or Punjab issue. Our policy did not start fire in Kashmir,” he said, adding that it was BJP which was fire-fighting and not the Congress. He also said that it was not BJP’s policy that has given rise to dynasty politics in the country.

Stating that India had emerged as a strong nation now, the Home Minister said: “If India was a weak nation, it would not be possible to settle the Doklam deadlock on the Indo-China border. China has also accepted that India is not a weak nation any more. China feels that it should maintain a good relationship with India,” he added.

Dear Rajnath, please dont lie to this extent.  We know who is lying.  You have made this statement my mistake.  Instead of saying bjp sets fire and congress puts if off you said congress sets fire and bjp puts it off.   We know who set fire in Honnavar + Kumta + Sirsi etc.   Dont try to fool us dear.  We know that you are a Master Degree holder  in lying from Nagpur university.   Please feel shame and try to understand what are you saying.   You cannot fool us all the time.   You should know this and it will be better for you.

Bengaluru, Apr 4: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday asked Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar to be the government's spokesperson on the Novel Coronavirus crisis management effort, a move that is being seen as keeping too many cooks from spoiling the broth.

At a high-level meeting to review measures on COVID-19 containment, Mr Yediyurappa is said to have taken exception to his Cabinet colleagues making multiple, and often contradictory statements, leading to confusion.

''The CM has directed Mr Kumar to be the only one to brief the media on COVID-19,'' a source from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) confirmed.
