Bengaluru, Oct 22: The self-proclaimed saviors of the language, culture and land of Karnataka, who had succeeded in cancelling the New Year’s scheduled show of actress Sunny Leone in Bengaluru, this time have booked as many as 235 tickets for show in the city.

The porn star-turned-Bollywood super star, will perform live for the first time in Karnataka on November 3. The show will be held at a hotel in Manyata Tech Park, near Nagawara on Outer Ring Road of Bengaluru.

According to sources the activists of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (KaRaVe) have bought 235 tickets for the show. With this, the show is likely to witness chaos and intense protests against Sunny Leone.

Confirming the plan to protest at the venue, Harish, KaRaVe youth wing state president said that as long as Sunny Leone is part of the movie Veeramahadevi, they would protest against her wherever she goes.

“We love seeing Sunny sing and dance to Kannada songs. That is the reason we have blocked 235 tickets online. But we just cannot accept her enacting the role of the greatest queen of Kannada, because of her past roles in blue films. As long as she continues in the movie, wherever she goes, we will protest against her. The protests will not be confined only to Bengaluru, but other parts of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu as well,” Harish said.

At a protest on Monday, in front of the Town Hall, against Sunny enacting the role of Veera Mahadevi, KaRaVe youth wing activists slit their wrists to convey the message: “We will give blood, but not allow Sunny act the role in the film.”

Bengaluru, Feb 18: Deputy chief minister Laxman Savadi was elected to the legislative council on Monday and although it was a done deal that he would win, a vote from across the aisle spiced up the election.

Counting was conducted soon after ballots were cast and Savadi polled 113 of the 120 votes cast, including the vote of disgruntled JD(S) legislator GT Devegowda. Seven votes were declared invalid. Members of the two opposition parties — Congress and JD(S) — abstained from voting.

The election was necessitated following the resignation of Rizwan Arshad of the Congress. Rizwan resigned after he was elected to the legislative assembly from the Shivajinagar constituency in the assembly bypolls held for 15 seats in December last year.

BR Anil Kumar, who was initially promised the support of both Congress and JD(S) was supposed to contest as an independent candidate. However, as both parties refused to support him at the last minute, he withdrew, paving the way for Savadi’s victory.

The BJP has 117 members in the 225-member assembly, but N Mahesh of the BSP and two independents, H Nagesh and Sharath Bachchegowda, besides GT Devegowda also voted, taking the total electorate to 120 (including the speaker). BJP’s SA Ramadas did not turn up because of health reasons.

“I would like to thank all those who were responsible for my victory. Special thanks to leaders of my party and chief minister BS Yediyurappa, who gave me the opportunity to be the BJP candidate,” said Savadi.

Winning this council election was crucial for Savadi to retain his ministry as he was not an elected member of either of the houses. Rules mandate that a non-member must get elected either to the assembly or council within six months after taking over as minister. February 20 was the deadline for Savadi, who had lost 2018 assembly polls from Athani, to get elected.

Officials in the assembly secretariat said seven votes were invalid because voters had wrongly marked their choices on ballot paper. According to norms, a voter has to mark numerical one, two and three against the names of the candidates in order of preference. Marking only numerical one is allowed. However, six ballots had a tick mark, while a voter had registered a cross mark. Since it was a secret ballot, it was not known who the MLAs were whose votes were invalid.

“The ballot papers bear serial numbers and they are randomly distributed. It is virtually impossible to say who a voter cast his or her vote for,” said assembly secretary MK Vishalakashi, the retuning officer for the bypoll.

How soon we get a coronavirus vaccine depends on not only the pace of work in research labs, but also the preparedness of factories supplying glass vials, stoppers and syringes
