Mangaluru, May 7: Nalin Kumar Kateel, MP of Dakshina Kannada has held Karnataka chief minister H D Kumaraswamy responsible for the water crisis in Mangaluru.

He was speaking at a protest staged by BJP in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner here on Monday alleging that Home Minister M.B. Patil is functioning in an autocratic manner and the State government is curbing the right to freedom of expression.

Mr Kateel said that though Mangaluru is facing a severe water crisis, the Chief Minister has not paid a visit to the city and tried to address the issue by holding a meeting. The CM is fearing losing his chair, he added.

He said that the coalition government in the State will collapse after the announcement of the results of the Lok Sabha elections on May 23.

Addressing the protesters D Vedavyasa Kamath, MLA, Mangaluru City South, said that the State government is indulging in hate politics. The coalition government is arresting those who spoke against it, he said.

“When a former MLA made derogatory remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, no action was taken, though a complaint was filed,” he said.

Questioning the contribution of the coalition government in the State in the past one year, the MLA said that Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy made controversial statements against the people of the coastal region. “But he prefers the coast for relaxing and refreshing,” he added.

Kalaburagi, Feb 20: All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader Waris Pathan on Wednesday said that 15 crore Muslims can dominate 100 crore Hindus.

"The time has now come for us to unite and achieve freedom. Remember we are 15 crore but can dominate over 100 crores," said Pathan while addressing an anti-CAA rally here.

"They tell us that we have kept our women in the front - only the lionesses have come out and you are already sweating. You can understand what would happen if all of us come together," he said.

The CAA grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist, and Christian refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh, who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.

Protests have erupted across the country against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the National Population Register (NPR).
