Udupi, Dec 5: Kota Srinivas Poojary, Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council, today said that Municipal Administration Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi was mentally away from the Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) government.

"Those in the cabinet mentally away from the government naturally have sympathy towards the opposition," he said.

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Poojary said, he would not predict that minister Jarkiholi is going to join Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), but expect him to quit the Congress party.

Reacting to statement by Congress leader and MLA Satish Jarkiholi that 7 to 8 Congress MLAs were inclined towards joining BJP, Poojary said, it was true.

"Congress-JD(S) coalition government has not taken off, hence its performance cannot be evaluated. Marks if given to the government will indicate that the teachers were poor. Ministers were not coming out of Vidhan Soudha, while some of the district in-charge ministers were confined to their assembly constituencies and weren’t resolving people’s grievances," he said.

Poojary said, chief minister and ministers weren’t discharging their duties and Congress was not allowing the chief minister to work. "MLAs in the coalition are disturbed and such if support BJP we could form the government. After the winter session of the state legislature, coalition government will survive on what basis needs to be seen," he added.

Mangaluru, Jan 29: Days after some youths allegedly threatened to 'behead' local MLA and former Karnataka minister U T Khader during a pro-CAA rally here, the Dakshina Kannada district unit of the Congress on Wednesday urged the police to register a case against the culprits.

A video of the incident that went viral on social media showed the youths raising slogans that they will "cut off his limbs and chop off his head if necessary" during the rally organised by the BJP in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act on Monday.

Addressing reporters here, District Congress Committee president Harish Kumar demanded that the police register a case on their own against the youths. He said if prompt action was not taken against the youths seen in the video, the Congress will launch an agitation before the office of the Commissioner of Police.

When asked by reporters about the video, Khader had on Tuesday brushed aside the threat, saying he had not taken it seriously. The MLA had also said he did not file a complaint with police as he had concern for the families of the youths.
