In his attempt to portray the ruling Congress government of Karnataka as anti-Hindu, senior BJP leader and Dharwad Pralhad Joshi has called chief minister Siddaramaiah a ‘Mullah’. He also slammed Inspector General of Police (western range) Hemant Nimbalkar, who foiled several attempts of communal forces to create riots in coastal Karnataka.

Speaking at a protest meeting organised by Hindu Hitarakshana Samiti in Hubballi, he said the 'Mulla Siddaramaiah' government was engaged in acts of Muslim appeasement and was torturing patriots and protecting anti-nationals.

Mr Joshi, who served as the state president of BJP in the past, also dragged Pakistan to Karnataka. He Joshi said that there were vested interests that want to convert India into Pakistan and organisations such as the RSS, VHP and ABVP were the main hurdles for them. "We know how to chop the tongues of those who say Pakistan zindabad," he said, adding the word 'legally'.

He alleged that anti-nationals and terrorists were getting protection from Siddaramaiah and the State was on the way to becoming another West Bengal and Kerala, where Hindus had no protection.

Mr Joshi said that the Hindus were in danger and the killings of Hindus in Karnataka should be a wake-up call to all to come out and protest. He accused Mr Siddaramaiah of protecting activists of the Popular Front of India and the Karnataka Forum for Dignity (KFD). “After coming to power, the Siddaramaiah-led government has withdrawn cases against 1,700 PFI and KFD activists,” he claimed.

He described IGP Hemant Nimbalkar as a 'chamcha' of Siddaramaiah, since cases were booked under Section 307 of the IPC against many Hindutva activists including BJP workers in Sirsi, Uttara Kannada district for trying to create communal riots.

Bengaluru, Feb 19: Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa thanked his Kerala counterpart Pinarayi Vijayan for initiating action against those dumping bio-medical and bio-wastes in Karnataka's districts from neighboring state Kerala.

In a statement, he said, "First I would like to thank Kerala Chief Minister Pinnarayi Vijayan for his prompt reaction and response to initiate legal action against the dumpers of bio-medical and bio-waste in our districts neighboring Kerala."

The Karnataka Chief Minister has taken a serious note of the reports in a section of media on alleged dumping of bio-medical waste and bio-waste by people from Kerala in bordering Mysuru, Kodagu and Chamarajnagar districts.

Bengaluru, May 30: A city corporator in Bengaluru was sent into quarantine on Saturday after he tested positive for the coronavirus infection, officials said.

"Yes, I have tested positive," Padarayanapura municipal ward corporator Imran Pasha told some news channels.

The JDS corporator said he would quarantine himself as per the regulations.

The entire area where Pasha lives was cordoned off.

Health workers reached there in an ambulance and gave him a personal protection gear to wear and he was taken to a designated hospital.

Reacting to the development, Karnataka Revenue Minister R Ashoka claimed Pasha hardly paid heed to the COVID-19 regulations.

"He rushes to all those places wherever there are positive cases...," Ashoka told reporters.

Padarayanapura was declared as a containment zone earlier with a few cases coming to the fore.

It was in this area where some policemen and health workers were attacked when they went to quarantine a few primary and secondary contacts of a COVID-19 patient about a month ago.

Following the incident, about 125 people were arrested, and later quarantined after a few of them tested positive.
