Padmanabha Prasannakumar, the founder of Karnataka Janata Party (KJP), which was formally launched by former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa during his year-long fight with BJP, has claimed that there is a threat to his life from Udupi-Chikkamagaluru BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje.

Addressing media persons in Bagalkot on Saturday, Padmanabha Prasannakumar said, Shobha Karandlaje had threatened him of dire consequences if he dares to release the CD of her marriage with Yeddyurappa in a secret ceremony at a Kerala temple.

“I am fearing for my life. I had submitted written requests to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and the then Home minister G Parameshwara seeking police protection. But nothing came out of it. I have lodged a complaint against Shobha Karandlaje at Vidhana Soudha police station alleging threat to my life from Shobha Karandlaje," teary-eyed Padmanabha said.

"Shobha Karandlaje and Yeddyurappa got married at Bhagavati Temple in Kerala. I have a CD of the marriage. If Chief Minister Siddaramaiah provides me the security, I will release the CD," KJP founder said.

He accused Shobha of misleading Yeddyurappa. "Had Yeddyurappa stayed in the KJP, the party would have come to power this time. Shobha made him leave the party. She will destroy Yeddyurappa's political career."

Replying to a query, Padmanabha Prasannakumar said that he would contest from Shikaripura and Teradal constituencies in the coming Assembly polls. and that the KJP would field candidates in all 224 constituencies.

If the CD has only Wedding content, then why Worry. Shoba Ji ....Mere pati mera devatha hai bala hai bura hai wo jaisa bi hai...mera pati mera devata hai !

Pyaar Keeya To Darna Kya, Pyaar keya, koi chori nahin......Love is OK, but not the Loot..

Getting married is no problem. The worry is when two public figures who intend to gain high public office keep the marriage a secret. Bhakths will never understand these things.

Kasaragod, June 2: As Kerala commenced fresh academic year with online classes from Monday, a ninth-standard student at Malappuram district in North Kerala ended life allegedly owing to lack of online study facilities like television connection and a smartphone at her house.

Devika, daughter of Balakrishnan, hailing from a Dalit community at Valancherry, about 25 kilometres from Malappuram town, ended her life.

Balakrishnan told the media that he could not recharge the television connection owing to financial crunches. He was working as a daily wage worker and owing to COVID-19 and lockdown, he was not having much work these days.

The family also did not have a smartphone or computer. The family members alleged that Devika was quite upset as she could not attend the virtual class that began on Monday. She was a student of a nearby government school.

Local police said that Devika, who was the eldest among four children of Balakrishnan, was suspected to have self-immolated using kerosene at a premise close to her house on Monday evening. The cause and provocations were still being probed only. No suicide notes were recovered yet.
