Bengaluru, Oct 21: Accusing the Congress party of disrespecting Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya on Monday said that not showing respect to patriots was the culture of India's grand old party.

Speaking at Gandhi Sankalp Yatra in Vijaynagar Assembly constituency, he said: "It is a great matter of pride for us that Savarkar is being considered for the Bharat Ratna award. Disrespecting patriots is the culture of the Congress."

"Savarkar is one of the greatest patriots the country has ever seen. Everyone who reads about him and his contributions will undoubtedly become a patriot," he added.

Surya also announced that he would conduct a march in all eight assembly constituencies in Bengaluru South Lok Sabha constituency.

"Our campaign is aimed at informing the public about cleanliness and health. The public will be sensitised about Swachch Bharat and Ayushman Bharat schemes," he said.

Mangaluru, Feb 17: Kambala superstar Shrinivas Gowda, who is drawing comparisons to ace sprinter Usain Bolt, has reportedly refused to take part in athletics trials with the Sports Authority of India.

28-year-old Gowda, who hails from Moodbidri in Dakshina Kannada, was celebrated as a potential Olympian after a clip of his race went viral, amid claims that he had done 100m in 9.55 seconds, against Bolt's record of 9.58. He has so far won 32 medals in 11 kambala events this season.

Union sports minister Kiren Rijiju and SAI said Gowda would appear for trials at SAI's Bengaluru centre on Monday. The government "will do everything to identify sporting talents", Rijiju had tweeted.

"I will meet the Chief Minister. I am keen on continuing in kambala," Gowda said. Asked about the clamour for a crossover into athletics, he said, "For the time being I have no plans to appear for SAI trials. I am busy with the Kambala season and will consider meeting them following that and after consulting my well-wishers."
