I have to become CM because I am blamed for spoiling political future of my dad: HDK

News Network

Hassan, Apr 4: H D Kumaraswamy, Karnataka state unit president of Janata Dal (Secular), who had once formed government with Bharatiya Janata Party in the state, has urged the people to make him chief minister once again so that he can dedicate the victory to his father and former prime minister H D Deve Gowda!

Speaking to media persons here yesterday Kumaraswamy said: “I am blamed for spoiling the political future of my father. At least, for this reason, I have to become chief minister and dedicate the victory of the party to him."

He immediately added: "The Congress and the BJP have been criticising the JD(S) as the father-son party. What are the BJP and the Congress up to now? While Siddaramaiah is fielding his son Dr Yathindra, B S Yeddyurappa's son Vijayendra is being fielded from Varuna. What is their contribution to Varuna constituency?"

Continuing tirade against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah he said, it will not be a surprise if the Congress gets only 25 seats in the upcoming Assembly elections.

"Siddaramaiah is diverting the people by issuing statements that the JD(S) will not get even 25 seats. According to the recent political developments, it will not be a surprise if the Congress itself gets only 25 seats," he said.

"The tactics of any political 'chanakya' will not work in the elections in Karnataka. The party's target is to win 113 seats and we will achieve it," Kumaraswamy said.

Commenting on Chamundeshwari constituency, Kumaraswamy said that it is very difficult for Siddaramaiah to win the elections. "He had won by a threadbare margin of 257 votes when he contested the polls from the constituency in the 2006 by-polls. Though we had won the polls, technically we had failed. This time, we have taken enough steps to ensure that such mistakes do not recur," he said.

Mangaluru: Suspect walks out of facility, returns later

News Network

March 10,2020

Mangaluru, Mar 10: Tension prevailed in the city after an international flyer quarantined at the District Wenlock Hospital walked out of the facility.

The passenger, with a recent travel history to high-risk countries, refused to cooperate with health officials. The day-long drama ended when the district administration intervened and the flyer agreed to get himself re-admitted.

Deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh said the passenger had fever and was sent to an isolation ward. “The passenger is cooperating with the treatment and samples have been collected for testing,” she said. The samples will be sent to a testing centre in Bengaluru.

Sources told that rude behaviour by staff at Mangalore International Airport may have angered the passenger and he walked out of the quarantine facility.

She said if passengers show reluctance to be screened, they should first be counselled and allowed to get themselves admitted to a hospital of their choice with quarantine facility. If they still refuse to cooperate, they will have to be hospitalised forcefully, she added.
