Congress will convince SDPI to withdraw nomination but BJP will retain DK: Kateel

Mangaluru, Mar 28: Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, who seeking reelection on BJP ticket for the third consecutive term today rubbished the reports of secret pact with the Social Democratic Party of India as baseless rumours.

Congress leaders in the coastal district had recently claimed that SDPI fielded its candidate from Dakshina Kannada just to help BJP by dividing non-communal votes and thereby reducing the vote share of Congress in the next month’s Lok Sabha polls.

Replying to the queries of media persons on the sidelines of the BJP workers’ meet at Sullia, Mr Kateel said that Congress and SDPI leaders help each other. “BJP will not stoop to the level of reaching a secret deal with parties like SDPI. You can expect such politics from Congress leaders,” he said.

He said that during last year’s Karnataka Assembly polls Congress leaders had very easily convinced SDPI to withdraw the nominations. 

“This time too Congress will convince SDPI candidate to withdraw nomination in Dakshina Kannada. Let them do whatever they want. We are least bothered. Because we are sure that BJP will register a thumping victory in Dakshina Kannada in this polls too,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jan 18: The government slammed Kerala’s tourism department for putting out a tweet on Sankranti Day, promoting ‘beef ularthiyathu’, a specialty in that state, but the move backfired spectacularly with Karnataka’s tourism minister being heavily trolled.

After Kerala put out its advertisement, state tourism minister CT Ravi, seizing the opportunity, took a dig at the Left government in Kerala, saying, “Welcome to Karnataka”. He followed that up with another tweet listing delicious “vegetarian” dishes of coastal Karnataka — a coastline which runs to Kerala.

“Welcome to Karnataka to bring out the Vegetarian in you. Enjoy the flavors of Tulu Nadu – Pathrode, Kotte Kadubu, Halasina Hannina Gatti, Avalakki Upkari, Badanekayi Mosaru Gojju and a whole lot of authentic food to hit Your tastebuds,” Ravi’s tweet read.

Ravi’s tweet sparked a debate between those for and against eating beef, including legislators like Sowmya Reddy (Congress) and Shobha Karandlaje (BJP). Some pointed out that Karnataka is 80% non-vegetarian and an appropriate response to beef curry would have been “pandi curry” (wild pig curry) — a Kodagu specialty.

Realising his tweets were getting more negative than positive traction, Ravi quickly amended his stand and on Friday tweeted: “Nati Koli Saaru Mudde. Aw! Delightful Delicacy of Old Mysuru region. Farm bred Chicken traditionally cooked to perfection and served with the soft Ragi Mudde. You will ask for more !!!”

Hassan, July 31: A police sub-inspector (PSI) reportedly hanged himself at his official quarters in Channarayapatna town today morning.

The deceased has been identified as Kiran Kumar, 34, who was in charge of Channarayapatna rural police station.

Sources said that he was upset after two murder cases were reported in the last 24 hours in his limits. Kiran reportedly told colleagues an hour before the extreme step that he feared he would be suspended.  

According to locals, the SI was upset after news of the two murders due to alleged negligence of the police spread on social media. He killed himself before a visit by senior officials. IGP, southern range, and SP Srinivasagowda was planning to visit the town and the spots where the murders took place on Friday.

Kiran, a native of Lalanakere village in Arsikere taluk, was known for his rapport with local people. He was alone when the incident took place. His wife and children had gone to Lalanakere for the Varamahalakashmi festival on Thursday night. The body was shifted to the mortuary for a postmortem.
