JD(S), Cong should follow coalition dharma: Khandre

Bengaluru, Jul 26: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee Working President Eshwar Khandre on Wednesday said both the JD(S) and the Congress should follow the coalition dharma in order to keep the communal BJP away from power.

Speaking to reporters after attending a meeting of KPCC's OBC wing, he said, "Both the coalition partners should work for the victory of each other’s candidates in the elections. That is the coalition dharma. Leaders of both the parties have agreed to go together in the coming Lok Sabha polls and we all have to abide by it."

Khandre’s statement has come in the wake of a section of Congress leaders opposing the party having a pre-poll alliance with the JD(S) in the Lok Sabha elections. Some leaders of the party from Hassan district had even warned that they will not work for the JD(S) if it decides to give away the Hassan parliamentary seat to the regional party as part of the seat-sharing agreement.

State Congress president Dinesh Gundu Rao said though the previous Congress government had done a good work, the electorate did not support the party as expected. The Congress workers should make use of the coalition government to strengthen the party ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, he added.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has failed on all fronts. He has been trying to wipe up the emotions of people. Attacks on Dalits and minorities have increased ever since the BJP came to power at the Centre. Only Congress president Rahul Gandhi has the ability to counter Modi, Rao said.

People can say easily. Keeping two different political parties under one umbrella is too difficult.  Especially when the party and party leaders are prominent

Bengaluru, Feb 17: Days after 10 MLAs were inducted in the Cabinet, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa is likely to expand his Cabinet again as some BJP MLAs are unhappy, said BJP sources.

Several leaders including Umesh Katti, CP Yogeshwar, Raju Gowda and MP Renukacharya are miffed over the recent cabinet expansion, claim sources.

On February 6, ST Somashekar, Ramesh Laxmanrao Jarkiholi, Anand Singh, K Sudhakar, BA (Byrathi) Basavaraj, Arabail Hebbar Shivaram, Hasavanagowda C Patil, K Gopalaiah, Narayana Gowda and Shrimant Balasaheb Patil took oath as ministers.

It should be noted that many MLAs had won the by-polls on a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ticket in December last year after switching loyalties from the Janata Dal (Secular) (JDS) and Congress.

In the December 5 by-polls held in 15 Assembly constituencies, the BJP had won 12, while Congress managed to bag only two. One seat was won by an Independent candidate while the JDS drew a blank.

Newsroom, Jun 14: Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput, who was found dead in his house in Mumbai’s Bandra today, was heartbroken after the death of his former manager Disha Salian.

34-year-old actor had posted a heartfelt note after her death: “It’s such devastating news. My deepest condolences to Disha’s family and friends. May your soul rest in peace.” 

The police are considering 28-year-old Disha’s death as an accidental one and the investigation is on to find if it was a suicide. She died after falling off the 14th floor of a building in Malad, Mumbai on June 8.

It is not yet known if there is any connection between the two deaths. Sushant’s house help reportedly found him hanging inside his room on Sunday and cops are investigating the case. He was recently seen in Nitesh Tiwari’s Chhichhore and more recently on Netflix opposite Jacqueline Fernandez in Drive.

Who is Disha Salian?

Disha Salian hails from Karnataka’s coastal district of Udupi. She was born in 1992 into a business family background. She reportedly migrated to Mumbai with her family at an early age. 

After completing her education, she worked in the Times of India Group for more than three years. She went on to become the celebrity manager at Media Vantage.

Apart from Sushant, she had great links with many popular celebrities like Bharti Singh, Alisha Panwar, and others.
