eshwarappaNames of many BJP?leaders, including Union ministers Ananth Kumar and D?V?Sadananda Gowda and party MLC?B?J?Puttaswamy, have been mentioned in the invitation that was given to the media here on Sunday.

However, Eshwarappa, who considers himself as the voice of OBCs in the BJP, has not been invited for the Monday's event. When contacted, he said, “I am unaware of the programme. I have no invitation.”

Eshwarappa, who is leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council, and state BJP?president B?S Yeddyurappa are at loggerheads ever since the former questioned certain appointments made to various wings of the state unit of the party.

Yeddyurappa on Sunday appointed former MLC?Bharati Shetty as the party's state Mahila Morcha president. According to an announcement made by the BJP on Sunday, she will replace the incumbent Bharati Mugdum.

Bengaluru, May 2: JDS leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy accused the Mandya district administration of the surge in COVID-19 cases in the district and not quarantining 7,000 labourers who arrived here from Mumbai.

"As we know that 16,000 labourers from Mandya were working in Mumbai, out of which 7,000 people have arrived in the district. However, none of them was quarantined properly which is a violation of COVID-19 lockdown," Kumaraswamy told reporters here on Friday.

He claimed the district administration has shown "gross negligence" in their duty in following the procedure of COVID-19 as "one COVID-19 patient's dead body which was brought here from Mumbai has led to more cases in the district and those who accompanied the body have also tested positive for the virus."

Kumaraswamy appealed to the state government to strictly maintain lockdown norms and do not allow any relaxations in view of the rise in COVID-19 cases, stating that "any kind of relaxation could lead to a huge disaster."
