Mangaluru, May 23: In spite of all controversies and lack of developmental works, hardline BJP leader Nalin Kumar Kateel has achieved hat-trick in Dakshina Kannada Lok Sabha constituency by securing a massive victory against Congress candidate Mithun Rai in 2019 general elections.

Mr Kateel, who had defeated Congress veteran B Janardhana Poojary by a margin of 40,420 votes in 2009 and 1,43,709 votes in 2014, has further increased it in 2019. Like 2014, SDPI finished third in 2019 too.

The BJP had brought star campaigners including include Prime Minister Narendra Modi and MP Meenakshi Lekhi to the coastal district to campaign for its candidate, while Congress had failed to fetch its national level leaders.

The Congress had held the constituency till 1991 but in the last seven elections, it is BJP which has held the seat.

In 1991, BJP’s Dhananjay Kumar wrested the seat from the Congress. Later, he won the constituency thrice. In 2004, former chief minister D V Sadananda Gowda became Dakshina Kannada MP.

Brief result:
Nalin Kumar Kateel (BJP): 772754
Mithun Rai (Congress): 499387
Mohammed Ilyas (SDPI): 46834

Need a law to shoot at sight those raising anti-India slogans: B C Patil

News Network

March 2,2020

Bengaluru, Mar 2: Karnataka Minister BC Patil on Monday repeated his earlier statements that he will approach the Centre to bring a law to "shoot at sight" anyone who raises anti-India slogans.

"I am not going back on my statement as I have not said anything wrong. I had said that I will ask the central government to bring a law to shoot at sight those who shout slogans against India. Nowadays it has become a fashion for some youths to get popularity this way which spoils the country and patriotism," Patil told reporters here.

"There is nothing wrong in asking for a law. I have not said that I will myself shoot someone who shouts slogans against India. If the same thing happens in Pakistan, they will be beheaded. But we are not so brutal, we book a case and send them to judicial custody," he added.

Patil also said that there was no need for holding discussions over the amended Citizenship Act, but added that the ruling BJP will defend it if the opposition raises a stir in the state Assembly.

The budget session of the Karnataka Assembly began on Monday.
