Belagavi, Nov 11: Taking a dig at the BJP, MLA Laxmi Hebbalkar on Saturday said that those opposing Tipu Jayanti are the ones who lauded him in the past when they needed votes.

She was speaking after inaugurating the Tipu Jayanti celebration organized by the district administration here on Saturday. The Belagavi (Rural) MLA said that Tipu pledged his children to safeguard the kingdom from British and protected Sringeri Mutt from enemies. “One should not play politics in such issues,” she stated.

Yamakanamaradi MLA Satish Jarkiholi, said that Tipu respected Kannada and the language developed in the Mysuru region under his rule. “His contributions in making Karnataka famous in silk production are unparalleled,” he said.

Jarkiholi said some leaders are spreading lies that Tipu killed 50,000 Kodavas when the community’s population was less. “Tipu was a great king with innovative mindset and courage,” he said.

Bengaluru, May 19: In the wake of assurance by Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to look into their demands, hotels and restaurants in Karnataka today decided to continue takeaway services for three more days.

Hotels were also exempted from the total lockdown on Sundays in Karnataka - under the state guidelines issued for Lockdown 4.0.

The Karnataka Pradesh Hotel and Restaurants' Association (KPHRA) had earlier threatened to stop takeaway services over refusal to allow dine-in facility in the fourth phase of the lockdown. 

B Chandrashekar Hebbar, president of KPHRA said that the CM urged hoteliers to wait for three days, assuring that a decision will be taken. 

"We appraised the government over the mounting losses by keeping just take-away services open. Noting that social distancing and other guidelines will be followed, we urged him to allow dine-in facility," he said.

The Association will wait three more days before discontinuing parcel services, Hebbar said. 

The government also provided relaxation to hotels from the total lockdown announced in Karnataka on Sundays, he said. 

A package for hotel employees such as cooks and waiters, along the lines of those announced for farmers, cab drivers and weavers, was also sought in a petition submitted to the chief minister.

In fact the state government had expressed its willingness to open hotels under the Lockdown 4.0, subject to restrictions. However, the central guidelines do not allow dine-in services.
