Mangalore, June 27: Amidst his busy programme schedule Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa on Monday gave a surprise visit to the house of B Nagaraja Shetty, who has submitted resignation to the post of Chairman of Karnataka Coastal Development Authority.



After offering prayers at Dharmasthala and participating in various foundation stone laying and inauguration programmes in Kukke Subrahmanya, Mr Yeddyurappa arrived in the city and met the former DK district in-charge minister at his residence near Bejai Church and held a 20-minute discussion.



Mangalore MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, district in-charge Minister Krishna J Palemar, Deputy Speaker of Karnataka Legislative Assembly N Yogish Bhat were also present at the closed door meeting.

New Delhi, Feb 3: BJP MP Anantkumar Hegde's swipe at Mahatma Gandhi has irked the top party leadership and he may be forced to apologise, party sources said on Monday.

A senior BJP leader said the Karnataka leader's comments were "condemnable" and the party leadership is upset with him.

"The party has conveyed its displeasure to him and asked him to take remedial measure. Any insult to Mahatma Gandhi is unacceptable," he said.

Hegde, a former Union minister, reportedly claimed at an event in Bangaluru that the entire freedom movement was staged with the consent and support of the British, and the independence movement led by Gandhi was a "drama".

He also wondered why the Father of the Nation was called 'Mahatma' (a great soul).

The party leader said the Lok Sabha MP is a "disciplined" member of the party and will do what he has been asked to.

Hegde, known for hardline Hindutva leanings, has a history of making controversial remarks.

This man and some others like him have reached the peak of their madness.

 

They will not change their attitude, as they know that nobody can do any harm to them.

 

Therefore they will listen only to dire action what they deserve per the penal code. If required put him behind bars.

Dont harm them more, see their families.
