Puttur, March 14: The presence of Bharatiya Janshakti Party chief Uma Bharati at the Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha here fuelled speculation that the former Madhya Pradesh CM would rejoin her parent party BJP. Uma Bharti apparently is trying to seek blessings of the RSS leadership to pave her re-entry in to her parent party.

Uma Bharati was suspended from the BJP in November 2004 till further action and served a showcause notice asking why she should not be expelled following her outburst against L K Advani, in full glare of television cameras. However, due to RSS pressure, her suspension was revoked and in May 2005, she was appointed member of the party's national executive. She was however, expelled from the BJP later that year.

This was for her revolt against the appointment of Shivraj Singh Chauhan as the CM of Madhya Pradesh. After her expulsion, Uma Bharati undertook a padyatra' from Bhopal to Ayodhya and called it the Ram Roti Yatra.

The RSS top brass here were tight lipped about her presence at the venue. "She may be in Puttur, but I do not have information about her presence at the ABPS," said Ram Madhav, national executive committee member of RSS, when contacted by TOI. Police confirmed that Uma reached Puttur by road from Goa at around 4 pm. She has been provided with a pilot and an escort vehicle as she has got Z category security.

Bengaluru, Jun 20: Continuing with the easing of restrictions under 'Unlock 1.0', the Karnataka government on Saturday authorised local bodies to fix timing for opening of public parks other than those in the containment zones between 5 am to 9 pm.

It has also mandated adhering to all the national directives issued to contain the spread of COVID-19 and the guidelines issued by the state government in this connection.

Noting that the government has been relaxing conditions under unlock 1.0, Principal Secretary Revenue N Manjunath Prasad, who is also the member secretary of the state disaster management authority in an order said, local bodies have been asked to set the timing between 5 am to 9 pm to open all parks that come under them and the government.

It said this would be applicable to only those parks that come outside the containment zones. Earlier in May, while relaxing the lockdown norms, the government had set 7 am to 9 am and from 5 pm to 7 pm for the opening of parks.
