raiMangaluru, Apr 6: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders are behind the murder of Right To Information activist Vinayak Baliga, according to Dakshina Kannada district in-charge Minister B. Ramanath Rai.

Responding to a question at a press conference here, Mr. Rai said that not only in the Baliga murder case, but the BJP leaders were also behind the murder of Harish Poojary of Bantwal that took place after the Tipu Jayanti celebrations.

The Minister said that he had issued directions to the police to bring to book the guilty behind the gruesome murders.

Speaking earlier, Mr. Rai defended formation of the Anti-Corruption Bureau by the State government and said that the State Cabinet had taken that decision.

“It has nothing to do with the Lokayukta Act and no attempts are being made to weaken the institution,” he said.

There were many States which had both the Lokayukta and the Anti-Corruption Bureau and a few which had only the ACB, he added.

Every evil acts will be exposed...
The Cheddi MEMBERS Should think before they fall into their Cheddi leaders mind wash ... They only guide U to do evil & then U & your family will be trapped for their desire .. Once they got their target ..they will avoid YOU. This has happened with many of them. Now Namo DK leader is on the Run... But how long he will Run...When will he live freely in the society...
Y cant cheddi members use their mind independently and avoid falling to do evil as per your evil masters order.
Think & PONDER ... This beautiful life is not to play & Kill each other. U will only open up & clear your heart When U look into the CREATOR who created U and all... Look for the TRUTH and dont be a part of FALSEHOOD...

Bengaluru, Apr 7: Former Minister and Leader of the Opposition Siddaramiah on Tuesday termed the shutting by private clinics in the state by doctors as an 'inhuman act'.

Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, the Congress leader said due to the fear of Novel Coronavirus, the doctors have closed their private clinics, which was against their profession.

This has affected the people, especially those, who are suffering from other deceases. He urged Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to intervene and resolve the issue immediately.

Despite the government instructions not to close down their clinics, the doctors have not been responding positively, Mr Siddaramaiah noted.

In this connection, the government should act seriously and give necessary warning to the doctors, to either open their clinics to serve the people, or face action, he added.
