I am also a Hindu, don't need sermons from Yogi: Siddaramaiah

December 23, 2017

Belagavi Dec 23: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday took a dig at his Uttar Pradesh counterpart Yogi Adityanath for stating that the Congress government in Karnataka was celebrating Tipu Sultan Jayanti instead of Hanuman or Ram Jayanti.

Siddaramaiah said, "We too are Hindus and the BJP does not have copyright to talk about Hindus. In Karnataka, we celebrate jayantis of 26 great personalities, saints, historical persons and sufis, including Krishna Jayanti and Ram Navami, which are not celebrated by the Uttar Pradesh government."

Speaking after laying foundation stone for development works at Yamakanamaradi in Hukkeri taluk, Siddaramaiah said he does not need sermons from the Uttar Pradesh chief minister as he too was a Hindu but was not against Muslims, Sikhs, Jains or Christians.

Siddaramaiah said he was son of the soil and knows history of the land and there was no need for him to get lessons from Adityanath. Our state is seen as one of the peace loving states while Uttar Pradesh was called 'Jungle Raj.' Adityanath should make efforts to bring peace in his state. In politics, magic does not work and people from the state were politically aware and know whom to accept and whom to reject.

He said that it was the Congress government which named the women's university in Vijayapura after Akkamahadevi and not the BJP. It was our government which issued orders to display the picture of Basavanna in all the government offices and not these communal elements, he added.

A very good reply by CM and excellent comparison of Karnataka with the jungle raj UP.
We need no lessons here, especially from sectarian leaders of the North.

Well said , BY our CM, Hats off to you! Dear Siddaramaih Humble peace loving CM of KARNATAKA

ALL ARE HINDUS . BUT SOMETIMES SOMEBODIES FEELTHAT TEY ARE!
2 c.m. of YOGI MAY HAD DONE REMARKS AS TUTTURI BECAUSE THEY ARE LEAST AQUENTED WITH KARNATAKA.
THERE WERE KINGS AND QUEENS RULING INDIA ONE OF THOSE MAY BE TIPPU AGAINST BRITISH!! ONLY MERITS OF TIPPU BE COUNTED FOR CELEBRATIONS AFTER INDEPENDENCE> THERE MAY NOT BE ANY SPECIALTY BUT WILL!
* HANUMAN is treated as WIND GOD and there is no need to compare with TIPPU(DEEP) i FEEL!
** YOGY WAS OF VISIT FOR PRIVATE CAUSE AND THERE WAS NO NEDOF CRITICIZING KARNATAKA ADMINISTRATION. WHICH KNOWN LITTLE FACT OF IT TO HIM!!. NOT GOOD TO PEEP IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF OTHER STATE IS FEDARAL STATE POLICY!!

Karnataka state comes under fit state of administration on federal ground - in all respects, the speaker must study before making any comments about Karnataka.Hanuman differs from any kings of India now and before also
