Addressing BJP supporters at Kasaragod, his first venue of the day, Modi slammed Congress and CPM over their tie-up in West Bengal in the assembly elections there.

"Is West Bengal in India? Is Kerala in India? Then why are speeches of Left and Congress leaders different in both states? Can people who speak in different voices in Kerala and West Bengal be trusted by the people. This is insulting people's sensibilities," Modi said.

"Adjustment politics of the Congress and Left have to be understood. This is politics of compromise and corruption," Modi added.

ModiIn a bid to woo farmers in the state, Modi said, "Congress and Left are not concerned about agriculture growth in the state. Their priorities are different. Our government's Fasal Bima Yojana benefits the farmers and helps the farmer in times of need. We have dedicated this scheme to the farmers of India."

"This election is to safeguard the interests of the youth of Kerala. Do not think this is only about who the next MLA is," the prime minister said.

Trying to strike a chord with the audience, Modi said, "When anybody is Kerala experiences any trouble, we are pained in Delhi."

Citing the release of Tamil Nadu priest Fr Alexis Premkumar, Modi said, “Father Prem dedicated his life to Lord Christ, the Taliban kidnapped him. For months, nobody knew about his whereabouts. We undertook several efforts and father Prem returned home.”

Attacking the CPM-led LDF, Modi said, “Due to politics of violence so many of our Karyakartas have been killed. They were only serving people. From Kasaragod, I want everyone to know...a land known as God's own country is witnessing killing of innocent people by communists.”

“For Kerala to shine, politics of violence and corruption have to be replaced by the politics of development, which BJP stands for,” PM said and concluded his speech seeking votes for NDA candidates in Kerala.

Modi reached the venue in Kasaragod around 10.30 am by helicopter. He began his speech by addressing the gathering in Malayalam amid loud applause. BJP leaders and the NDA candidates of Kannur and Kasaragod districts took part in the meet.

Modi is day dreanming of ruling Kerala to misguide people and create communal disturbance. Kerala people of peace lovers and people from different religion are leaving cordially and peacefully. I requesgt all the keralites to discard the call from this hate monger and try to live in peace. Hate mongers from northern part of india are trying to divide and rule in the south. We should kick them out. Kerala should always be bjp free and this only will lead to peace in the region.

Chennai, July 27: Multi-lingual actress Vijayalakshmi, who attempted suicide yesterday, alleging harassment and bullying by followers of Naam Thamizhar party leader Seeman and Panankattu Padai’s Hari Nadar, is recuperating at a hospital in Chennai. 

Vijayalakshmi is known for films like Friends and Boss Engira Baskaran. She recently made headlines for speaking against Seeman and the torture she was allegedly facing from the actor-turned-politician and his party.

In the video which was uploaded on Sunday evening, Vijayalakshmi said, “This is my last video and I have been in tremendous stress in the last four months because of Seeman and his partymen. I tried my level best to survive all these days because of my mother and sister, but I have been humiliated in the media by Harinadar recently.”

She added, “I would like to tell fans who are watching the video just because I was born in Karnataka, Seeman has tortured me a lot. As a woman, I have put up with it to my highest capabilities. I won’t be able handle the pressure anymore. I am from the Pillai community, the same community LTTE leader Prabhakaran is part of. Prabhakaran is the only reason Seeman is who he is today, but now he has been harassing me on social media continuously. You slut shamed me to make me feel the pain and it is up to me to decide on what to do after facing such insults from you. I request my fans not to let Seeman get away from this case. He should never get anticipatory bail. My death should be a big eye-opener to everyone. I don’t want to be a slave to anybody.”

Bengaluru, Jan 10: State’s primary and secondary education minister, S Suresh Kumar on Friday asked the Department of Public Instruction to register a complaint in the cybercrime police station against the teacher who shared a video of a child mispronouncing a Kannada word.

The viral video shows the child from a government school incorrectly pronouncing the word 'Pakkelubu' (ribcage).

The minister observed, 'It is normal for children to pronounce words incorrectly and only repetitive practise will make them say it correctly. If a video of such a mistake is made and spread on the Internet the child will see it in future and be demoralised and might start hate learning. The person who made and posted this video has committed a grave crime.

Bengaluru, Jan 7: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Monday said the much-awaited cabinet expansion will take place in about a week to 10 days and that he wants to complete the exercise before his proposed visit to Davos to attend the World Economic Forum meet later this month.

"Cabinet expansion has to be done in a week or 8-10 days. There is also information that Amit Shah will be coming to Bengaluru on January 16 or 18. Before that I will go to Delhi and get things cleared and will expand the cabinet at the earliest," Mr Yediyurappa said.

Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said he wanted to complete the exercise before his Davos visit.

"I will make all efforts to expand the cabinet before that," he said.

With Mr Yediyurappa making it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the December 5 bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on within the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 ministers, including the Chief Minister, in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34.

Cabinet expansion will not be an easy task for the Chief Minister as he will have to strike a balance by accommodating the victorious disqualified legislators as promised and also make space for the old guards, upset at being "neglected" in the first round of the induction exercise.

He also has to give adequate representation to various castes and regions in his cabinet and also deal with the allocation of key portfolios.

The Chief Minister, who has indicated that the ministry expansion may take place any time after Sankranti, is likely to travel to Davos on January 20, according to sources.

BS Yediyurappa, along with Union ministers Piyush Goyal and Mansukh Mandaviya, as well as Chief Ministers Amarinder Singh, Kamal Nath, are expected to join over 100 Indian CEOs at Davos in Switzerland later this month for the WEF's 50th annual meeting, which will be attended by thousands from across the globe.
