Hassan, Apr 29: JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda has accused Congress of destroying ant-graft watchdog Lokayukta in Karnataka and claimed credit for establishing it.

Speaking to media persons here on Saturday, the former PM also accused the Congress of indulging in low level of politics and that the people would not believe in their manifesto.

"Unable to digest the rising popularity of the JD(S), the Congress is making false allegations like the JD(S) has made adjustments with the BJP so on, so forth," he said.

"You did nothing when in power for the farmers, daily wagers and the marginalised sections of the society. How can the people repose their faith on your manifesto," Gowda said, referring to the Congress manifesto, which was released on Friday.

"Siddaramaiah crows that he will continue as chief minister, Yeddyurappa claims that he will be the next chief minister. Let the people of the state decide who will be their chief minister," Gowda said.

"Siddaramaiah has Intelligence report. He decided to contest from Badami after the Intelligence report gave thumbs down for Chamundeshwari," he said.

To a query on Congress' Muslim vote bank, Gowda said, "Has Congress adopted the Muslims," he asked.

Party state president H D Kumaraswamy has fixed my tour itinerary. Accordingly, "I will campaign at 40 constituencies across the state. I will tour my home district for two days. We do not have star campaigners. BSP chief Mayawati, Telangana CM Chandrashekar Rao and Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu have urged the voters in the state to vote the regional outfit to power," Gowda said.

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 24: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday said that there is no community spread or the expected phase three spread of coronavirus in the state so far but the threat continues.

Speaking to media persons here on Thursday, Vijayan said that Kasargod, Kannur, Kozhikode, and Malappuram districts will be in the red zone with full restrictions.

"All the other ten districts in the State will be in the orange zone. With the detection of new cases today, the status of Kottayam and Idukki districts have been changed from green to orange. The district administration will decide on the hotspot areas to be closed," he said.

He said there would be an increase in the number of random tests in the red zones.

"In an effort to confirm that there is no community spread in the State, random antibody tests would be conducted among health workers, police personnel, home delivery persons, volunteers and migrant labourers," he added.

The Chief Minister said that COVID-19 labs set up at the Pariyaram Government Medical College at Kannur and the Kottayam Medical College have got the approval from the ICMR for coronavirus testing. The lab at Kannur Medical College will start functioning from Friday.

The UV sterilised lab, spread over 2,200 sq ft is equipped with four real-time PCR machines. In the first phase, this lab will be able to do 15 tests per day, which will be gradually increased to conduct 60 tests in the next phase.

"With the opening of these two new labs, tests to detect COVID-19 will be conducted in 14 government labs in Kerala. Apart from this, there are two private labs also in Kerala which are doing these tests. Since the number of coronavirus cases is again increasing in the State, the government has decided to procure ten real-time PCR machines to ramp up testing," he added.
