Mangaluru, Nov 4: Veteran Kannada novelist and advocate of Sangh Parivar’s Hindutva S L Bhyrappa was on Saturday honoured with the lifetime achievement award for his immense contributions towards ‘The Idea of Bharat’ at the Mangaluru Literary Festival organised by Mangaluru Literary Foundation at TMA Pai International Convention Centre, here.

Speaking on the occasion, the Saraswati Samman awardee said an Indian work will be one where there is a reflection of the whole nation. The writer will need to do a thorough research and have a close understanding of the lifestyle of people in different parts of the country, he said.

Mr. Bhyrappa said all his works were reflection of the whole country. “While in some works you find it substantially, there are works where you see in a subtle way,” he said.

While expressing his distaste for writers ignoring north Indians and disregarding Hindi and Sanskrit, Mr. Bhyrappa said: “No one will accept such works.”

While stating that the idea of ‘Akhand Bharat’ was in his soul, Mr. Bhyrappa said that extensive travel across the country and spending time in villages has helped to realise that people were bound by one common culture. “Our practices might be different from one region to another, but culturally it’s one culture that is seen across,” he said.

While expressing his appreciation for the way students in Sri Rama School in Kalladka in Bantwal were being taught, Mr. Bhyrappa gave away the cheque he received as a part of the award for the midday meals of the school.

Bengaluru, Jul 29: A day after Congress staged a nationwide 'Save Democracy' protest, Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Kumaraswamy slammed Congress for "dividing" the political parties and "buying MLAs" and questioned their "democratic behaviour" to lure Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MLAs who supported them.

Kumaraswamy, in a media statement, said, "Is it a democratic behaviour to lure MLAs of other parties through political shenanigans and later merging with them?"

"Congress is an expert in dividing political parties and purchase of MLAs," said Kumaraswamy adding, "If you are dividing the like-minded party MLAs through deceit, who would support you?"

He alleged that the term "horse trade" in politics came to be used because of Congress.

Congress had tied to divide the Janata Dal (Secular) in 2004. To this, he added, "To avoid the party being hijacked by the Congress, I had to oust the Congress-JD(S) coalition government through a political coup."

Kumaraswamy further accused, "Haven't the Congress who is making a big noise about the purchase of MLAs divided the JD(S) in the past? Is it not a fact that for the sake of one Rajya Sabha seat, the Congress government in Karnataka purchased eight JD(S) MLAs?"

Both -- Congress and BJP -- are "criminals" in purchase matter, he added.

Rajasthan Congress is in turmoil after simmering differences between Sachin Pilot and Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot came out in the open. Pilot was removed as the Deputy Chief Minister and the state unit chief of Congress.

The Congress has accused the BJP of indulging in horse-trading to bring down the Gehlot government. The BJP has rejected the allegations.
