Bengaluru, Oct 13: Upset with JD(S) youth leader Prajwal Revanna’s “bucket culture” comment, the JD(S) leadership is learnt to have advised him to exercise restraint while making public speeches.

No sooner than Prajwal’s statements on the “prevalence of sycophancy” in the JD(S) were widely reported on Wednesday, than JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda telephoned his grandson and reprimanded him.

According to sources, Gowda is learnt to have told Prajwal that he had already issued a notice to the youngster for his “suitcase culture” statement recently, and that he should stop repeatedly embarrassing the party.

Sources in the party said Prajwal has been mounting pressure on the party to let him contest the Assembly election. He is planning to contest the election from Rajarajeshwarinagar constituency in Bengaluru.

Both Gowda and his son H D Kumaraswamy have stated that only two members from the Gowda family will be fielded — Kumaraswamy and his brother H D Revanna. Meanwhile, Gowda on Thursday said Prajwal had not participated in the Rajarajeshwarinagar party workers meeting on October 10 as an aspirant.

Gowda told reporters in Bengaluru during the party’s legal cell meeting that the party core committee will finalise the candidate list.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday demanded that the state government drop its plan to provide doorstep delivery of liquor.

"After faltering in mopping up revenue, the state government is mulling over allowing doorstep delivery of liquor by enabling online sales and starting new MSIL liquor shops in rural areas. I demand that the state government drop its plans," he tweeted.

"I came to know that the excise commissioner is keen to hold talks with a private firm to enable online sale of liquor. The government should back out from such a foolish decision. Otherwise, agitation is inevitable," Kumaraswamy said.

He said opening new liquor shops or online delivery will ruin the health of society.

"Post-COVID outbreak and subsequent lockdown, people are facing financial distress, struggling to lead day-to-day life. 

The government must withdraw such an imprudent decision to deliver liquor at doorsteps. Opening new liquor shops or the decision of online delivery in times of distress like this will spoil society's health. 

It is not fair for the government to fill its coffers by robbing people's money," he said in a series of tweets.
