Muslims in BJP’s favour; tickets only for winnable candidates: Yeddyurappa

Bengaluru, Nov 1: Minorities, backward classes and dalits in Karnataka will favour Bharatiya Janata Party in 2018 polls in spite of chief minister Siddaramaiah’s attempts to woo them, according to former BJP’s state president and CM candidate B S Yeddyurappa.

BJP did not field a single Muslim candidate in 2013 Karnataka Assembly polls and 2017 Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls. “The reason behind this is BJP’s decision to give tickets only to winnable candidates,” says Yeddyurappa.

The former CM asserts that BJP’s Ahinda agenda is inclusive of Muslims and other religious minorities. “Muslims also support us. In my tenure as CM, I searched for a Muslim (Mumtaz Ali Khan) to give an MLC seat. If Muslims were not in BJP’s favour, it would not have won in UP,” he said.

“Under the Bhagyalakshmi scheme I started in Karnataka for the welfare of the girl child, 50% of the beneficiaries are Muslims,” he claimed.

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Action will be taken against private hospitals that were violating government norms and charging exorbitant fees charges for the treatment of Covid-19 patients and suspects, said Water Resources Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi.

The government has taken action against private hospitals in Bengaluru and the same parameters would be adopted other cities, he said speaking to media persons in Belagavi on Friday.

Jarkiholi said that the government had noticed that patients were levied exorbitant charges for Covid-19 treatment. People too have complaints regarding the huge bills by these private hospitals and have demanded action.

“We are not under the obligation of any private hospital and stringent action will be taken against all erring and violating government tariffs. They will have to treat patients and follow the tariffs fixed,” he stated.

Belagavi Institute of Medical Sciences District Hospital had been directed to install CCTV cameras in Covid-19 wards and install monitors at reception to facilitate monitoring of treatment and condition of the wards. BIMS management was taken to task for not following the directive and have been given a deadline to install CCTV cameras, Jarkiholi informed.

"We all know who created the coronavirus. It was created to scare us and to create tensions on the border, we know who did it. We have to learn to live with the coronavirus. We do not need to be scared of it. We must maintain social distancing and follow all the sanitation norms," Angadi told reporters here.
