Bengaluru, May 24: Karnataka chief minister H D Kumaraswamy on Thursday said that his father and former prime minister H D Deve Gowda gave him advices on politics and development works.

“It was the first time I met him after becoming chief minister. We discussed several things. He gave me some political advice and advice on how to take Karnataka on the path of development,” Kumaraswamy told media persons after visiting his father at latter’s Padmanabhanagar residence.

Kumaraswamy lashed out at the BJP leaders for spending time criticising the Congress-JD(S) coalition and calling it an unholy alliance. “BJP leaders should stop the brickbats. Their time is spent only in criticising us,” the CM said.

Kumaraswamy also sought the blessings of Pattanayakanahalli Nanjadhoota Swami, followed by a visit to the Adichunchanagiri Mutt and then the Siddaganga Mutt in Tumakuru.

On waiving farm loans, a poll promise he had made, Kumaraswamy said it was his top priority. “Let there be no doubt in this. I will announce the loan waiver soon after discussing it with Congress leaders.”

Mangaluru, July 29: Justifying the transfer of Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh, district in-charge minister Kota Shrinivas Poojari has accused Mangaluru MLA U T Khader of politicizing the issue. 

The IAS officer was transferred by the Karnataka government on July 28, a day after a saffron activist issued a death threat against her on social media after she warned of legal action against the miscreants who attack cattle traders.

Condemning the development, Mr Khader had tweeted that the state government has punished the deputy commissioner instead of punishing the culprit, who issued death threat.

Responding to Mr Khader’s tweet, Mr Poojari said that the transfer of the officer was on administrative ground. “It is unfortunate that Khader politicized a transfer carried out by the government on administrative ground. This is not Khader’s time to protect any accused,” tweeted Mr Poojari. 

It is worth mentioning here that Mr Khader was the district in-charge minister of Dakshina Kannada before Mr Poojari taking over the position. 

Meanwhile, police has arrested a person in connection with the death threat against the IAS officer.
