Mangaluru, Jan 23: The Bharatiya Janata Party’s campaign against incumbent Congress government in Karnataka took an extremely ugly turn when a party leader declared in a public speech that the looming Assembly polls will be a direct battle between Allah and Rama in Bantwal constituency of Dakshina Kannada district.

The Bantwal town police booked a case against Karkala MLA V Sunil Kumar under Sections 153(A) and 505(2) of the IPC for his vicious and provocative speech wherein he obliquely warned the Hindu community that the victory of six-time MLA B Ramanatha Rai in next polls will be a victory of Allah and defeat of Rama.

The case was registered on Tuesday based on a complaint lodged by Bantwal Youth Congress president Prashant Kulal, who accused Sunil Kumar of trying to divide society in the name of religion and disrupt harmony.

Addressing the saffron party’s rally in Kalladka town of Bantwal on Monday, Sunil Kumar, came down heavily on Rai for stating in a Muslim programme that he won from Bantwal constituency six times by the grace of Allah.

"This is a question dignity of Hindus… The upcoming election is not a battle between (BJP candidate) Rajesh Naik and Ramanath Rai. This is not a clash between BJP and Congress. This is an electoral battle between Allah and Rama. Now you have to decide whether you want to make Allah victorious once again in your constituency or to the one who loves Rama,” he said.

Replying to Sunil Kumar’s controversial statement, Rai, who is also the district in-charge minister of Dakshina Kannada, said that he belongs to people of all religions and not to any particular caste or community.

“There is no clash between Allah and Rama. For me both are same. Both Islam and Hinduism ask their followers to become good human beings. Using gods and religions for poll campaign is an extremely ugly practice. Being an elected representative Sunik Kumar shouldn’t have stooped to such a low level,” Rai said.

non sense ; mr sunil kumar doesn`t know that the whole universe belongs to Allah the almighty . (Allah - the creator, the sustainer and the cherisher of the universe, All praise is due to him ) . and this creations of Allah is comparing ,associating him with his creations is the biggest non forgivable sins of the universe.

People from his constituency shall learn from such speech of their MLA. In Addition Mr. Rahim Uchil has to understand the agenda of so called political party who have always defended for the controversy of so called political party. Now the election not between Allah and Rama it is between Mr. Rahim Uchil and Mr. Sunil Kumar. Jai Ho.

This speaker is a disgrace to Karnataka. May Lord Rama save people of Karkala who made him and MLA.

Well said Sunilanna. Who the hell cares for such petty cases. It’s all common for nationalists. It’s high time all nationalists get united and throw Pakistani supporters to Arabian sea.

In last election he had declared that it will be a clash between Modi and Jihadi. Now he knows that no people will vote for Modi. So started new slogan. What a shameless and uncultured people these politicians are!!!

Nalin Kumar Kateel hits out at Kharge for anti-Modi remark

News Network

February 10,2020

Chitradurga, Feb 10: President of the BJP State unit Nalin Kumar Kateel on Sunday hit out at Congress leader M. Mallikarjun Kharge for allegedly likening Prime Minister Narendra Modi to a “zero candle bulb”.

Mr. Kateel told reporters here that Mr. Modi was a “1,000 watt bulb that gave light to the world”, and compared Mr. Kharge to a lamp that had burned out politically.

Mr. Kateel charged that Mr. Kharge had become frustrated after losing the elections and after his party did not even consider him for a Rajya Sabha seat. And this had made the Congress leader to make wild charges against the Prime Minister.

Lashing out at the Congress, Mr. Kateel alleged that the Congress was continuing the “divide and rule” policy of the British and accused the former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda of being the “other face of the Congress”.

Mr. Kateel also came down on the former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. He ridiculed the Congress for the delay in choosing a new KPCC chief after Dinesh Gundu Rao submitted his resignation.

Karnataka flower vendor shocked after Rs 30 cr credited to wife's account

News Network

February 6,2020

Bengaluru, Feb 6: A flower vendor from Channapatna town in Karnataka got a shock of his life when he found a credit of Rs 30 crore in his wife's bank account. This happened when Syed Malik Burhan was struggling to meet expenses for a medical emergency in the family.

According to reports, bank officials knocked on his doors on December 2 asking him to explain how the money came to his account.

"On December 2, they came searching our house. They only said a huge amount has been deposited in my wife's (Rehana) account and then asked me to come to the Bank along with my wife carrying Aadhaar card," Mr Burhan said.

He claimed that the Bank staff sought to exert pressure on him to sign on a document but he refused. Mr Burhan recalled that he had purchased a saree through an online portal following which he received a call seeking his bank details which, he was told, were needed as he had won a car.

"Since then, we are running from pillars to post to find out how the money came to our account. We had only Rs 60 but suddenly such huge money came, which we are unable to understand," said Mr Burhan.

Mr Burhan said he had lodged a complaint with the Income Tax department, which he claimed was not keen on investigating it initially. Based on his complaint, the Channapatna town police in Ramanagara district registered a case of forgery and impersonation under the IPC besides the Information Technology Act for cheating and impersonation on January nine.

According to police, there were many financial transactions, which Mr Burhan may be unaware of. "We are trying to find out what these transactions mean. We will arrest whoever is behind it. We will not spare them," said a police officer in Channapatna.
