Mangaluru, May 20: After the chief minister B S Yeddyurappa opted for self-abortion of his government on Saturday paving way for the formation of JD(S)-Congress coalition government in the state, the workers of two parties in this coastal city raised slogans hailing each others’ leaders.

Soon after Yeddyurappa tendered his resignation without facing a floor test in the assembly, a group of JD(S) in front of the party office at Bendoorwell in the city distributed sweets and raised victory slogans. Interestingly, one among the workers shouted ‘Sonia Gandhi ki Jai’.

Speaking on the occasion JD(S) leader Vasanth Poojary said that the two parties have foiled all the unethical bid of BJP to purchase MLAs ahead of trust vote. He expressed hope that the coalition government led by H D Kumaraswamy would restore communal harmony in the coastal districts of Karnataka.

On the other hand, the workers of Congress party led by former MLA J R Lobo celebrated victory in front of the District Congress Committee office in the city.

While raising slogans hailing Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Siddaramaiah, D K Shivakumar and others, they included the name of chief minister designate H D Kumaraswamy too. Speaking on the occasion, Mr Lobo accused the BJP of misusing all powers attempting for horse trading in Karnataka.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party of India (CPI), which extended its support to the coalition government, said that the two parties should bury their minor differences for the national cause.

Hassan, Feb 9: Accusing the Centre for treating Karnataka as its enemy Former Minister and Congress leader UT Khader on Saturday said that the state did not get support from the Centre on the Mahadayi issue and flood relief and even the Union Budget.

Speaking to the media here, he said that the state has elected 25 BJP Lok Sabha members. Three from the state were Ministers in the Union Cabinet and another MP has been appointed president of the party’s state unit.

'None of them have spoken about the injustice done to the state in the budget. The budget document announced Rs 18,600 crore for the suburban railway in Bengaluru. But, ultimately the amount earmarked for the project is only Rs 1 crore. How can any BJP leader justify this?', the Congress leader wondered.

Bengaluru, Jan 11: India’s second-biggest IT company, Infosys Ltd, said it found no evidence of financial misconduct by its executives following a investigation into whistleblower complaints.

Bengaluru-headquartered Infosys, which earlier on Friday raised its revenue forecasts due to upbeat demand from Western clients, said an audit committee report exonerated Chief Executive Officer Salil Parekh and Chief Financial Officer Nilanjan Roy of all allegations, including accusations that the duo prevented employees from presenting data on large deals.

“I’m very happy that CEO Salil Parekh and CFO Nilanjan Roy have emerged from this stronger,” Infosys Chairman Nandan Nilekani told reporters. “The last two years since Salil has been here the company has changed dramatically for the better.”

Parekh took over as Infosys CEO in January 2018, after his predecessor Vishal Sikka quit following a public row with the company’s founder executives amid whistleblower allegations of wrongdoing.

The company earlier said it expected revenue to grow between 10 per cent and 10.5 per cent on a constant currency basis in the year ending March 2020, compared with its previous forecast of between 9 per cent and 10 per cent.

“We continue to see momentum in the market and we have an extremely robust pipeline driven by segment leaders,” CEO Parekh told a news conference.

“With the strength of large deal wins and digital momentum, we were able to clearly see that we have support to raise our guidance.”
