Modi tries to woo Dalits in Karnataka, says he is trying to fulfil Ambedkar’s dream

Bengaluru, May 10: Reaching out to Dalits and other backward communities in poll-bound Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said his government was trying to fulfil Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s dream of a powerful and prosperous nation.

Hitting out at the ruling Congress in Karnataka, he said the party failed to confer Bharat Ratna on Ambedkar when it was in power.

Addressing the SC, ST, BC and Slum Morcha workers of Karnataka BJP via “Narendra Modi” app, he said, “Our government has made the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act more stringent.”

He also reminded the workers that the BJP had the maximum number of members of Parliament belonging to the SC/ST, OBC and minority communities.

The Congress did not allow the functioning of Parliament to avoid giving constitutional status to the OBC Commission.

Earlier, the Prime Minister had reached out to the party office-bearers and workers of the women and youth wings through the app.

Modiji all your promises are blank and hollow nobody believe your speech or charisma anymore. You forget that you are PM of india not a candidate for CM of karnataka to stay so long to bring back corrupt yediyurappa.

Mangaluru, Feb 10: Life of a 40–year-old man, who suffered a massive cardiac arrest, was saved by an ambulance driver who covered 80-km distance between Dharmasthala and Mangaluru in just 40 minutes.

The patient, a Chikkaballapur native sustained a heart attack near Sakleshpur on Saturday while he was on his way to Dharmasthala. He was provided preliminary treatment at a private hospital in Ujire, where doctors advised his relatives to shift him to a hospital in Mangaluru immediately.

The patient’s condition was critical and the odds were completely against him. Moreover owing to the ongoing double lane project work, the road too had been dugout. Despite all this, ambulance driver Hameed drove at a fast pace and managed to take the patient to the hospital within 40 minutes.
