The actor-turned-politician had claimed that leaders of Rashtriya Swayamsewak Snagh and Bharatiya Janata Party had supported British when Congress plunged into the India's freedom movement. “Today, BJP leaders talk of nationalism and patriotism to fool the people. Where were they during the independence struggle?” she questioned.

Reacting to her statements, JD(S) leader former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy said, Ramya should not issue such statements for publicity. “Farmers of Mandya district and the state are facing drought. She should concentrate on such issues,” he suggested.

“I have read about the freedom struggle in history books. There are contradictory opinions about V D Savarkar, Subhashchandra Bose and a few others. They have been portrayed as good and also bad leaders. Hence, one should be careful while issuing such statements,” he added.

Melkote MLA K S Puttanaiah, Ramya's remarks on RSS or its sister organisations were only indicative of poor understanding of the freedom struggle wherein a large number of people took part without an organisational banner.

“But, who is Ramya? What is her relevance in State or national polity? Why is she being so much importance at the expense several burning problems of the common man and farmers in the State? She has neither understanding of matters nor has the righteousness, yet keeps speaking on issues as per her own whims and fancies,” he said.

Meanwhile, BJP leader and Mysuru MP Pratap Simha, taking a dig at Ramya sought to know the role of Congress in India's first freedom movement.

“Ramya is an actor. In movies you can read scripts and act. But, in politics there will be no script. You should be careful before issuing any statement,” Mr Simha said asking her to learn history.

Meet Shifali Saldanha, Namma Kudla’s new beauty queen

coastaldigest.com news network

January 6,2020

She is one of a few beauty queens who give equal importance to both modelling and academic growth. Within months after completing her MBA in Finance and HR, Shifali Saldanha won Miss India Continent 2019 first runner-up and Miss Glory of International 2019 held in Mumbai.

An alumna of St Aloysius College (AIMIT), this 23-year-old Mangalurean is now a much sought after budding model. “I am enjoying the moment and would like to go with the flow,” says the much-loved daughter of Stephen Saldanha and late Anupama Saldanha.

Over the course of past two years, Ms Saldanha has experienced various nerve-wracking moments. She was shattered when her beloved mother lost battle with cancer and bid adieu to the world a couple of years ago. Yet, she serenely braved all the challenges. Her ‘never give up’ attitude helped her to scale new heights amidst misfortunes and pains.

Speaking to coastaldigest.com about her success in Miss India Continent 2019, which was organised by Dr Mahesh Yadav of Aman Gandhi Film Productions, Ms Saldanha said 15 contestants from different parts of the country were shortlisted for the finale, which had five diverse rounds.

“The meet and greet session was my favourite phase in the competition as it was an opportunity to interact with the participants from different parts of the country,” recalls the multi-talented, who dreams big.

The leggy lass’ success wasn’t accidental one. A trained singer and multilingual anchor, Ms Saldanha was already a known figure in coastal Karnataka. She had won the titles Miss Karnataka International- Multimedia 2018, and Miss Beautiful Eyes Mangaluru 2018.

Being a moderate feminist, who carries a go-getter attitude, Ms Saldanha calls upon every woman to be optimistic, challenging and goal-focused.
