Chikmagalur, February 23: Karnataka BJP Chief K S Eshwarappa has expressed confidence that his party would retain the Udupi-Chikmagalur Lok Sabha constituency vacated by Chief Minister D V Sadanada Gowda.

Addressing a press conference he said that BJP candidate V Sunil Kumar would win with a wider margin. He said of the eight Legislative Assembly Constituencies in Udupi-Chikmagalur Lok Sabha constituency, seven MLAs are of BJP.

“Both, Udupi and Chikmagalur Zilla Panchayats are in BJP's control. More and more BJP workers are being elected for local governing bodies. Various developmental works undertaken by former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa and present Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda will be the reason for our success,” he said.

When questioned, if the recent incidents and the internal problems within the party will have no impact on the election, he said that it will have an impact undoubtedly but in a positive way which will only lead the Party to success.

“Show me one pure party, which has no allegations and accusations against it? We do not have to hide our face because of any incidents. Further in politics, allegations and accusations are part of the game. We are facing several allegations but we have handled those issues in a responsible manner and we are confident of emerging as innocents,” he said adding that there might be minor differences within the party but such differences can never affect the existence of the party.

He said that when they could get complete majority, BJP did not have any option but to take support from independent candidates. At this juncture individuals who had shifted loyalty to BJP from other parties had to be given opportunity. “In this process somewhere Chikmagalur could not be given its due. In future sincere and the dedicated will be given priority,” he said.

MLA D N Jeevaraj said that a delegation from Sringeri had met the CM seeking solution to various problems. Yellow Leaf Disease has compelled planters to migrate from the district.

“The delegation has requested the CM to provide interest free loans. We have also demanded the CM to open Polytechnic College in Sringeri,” he said.

State General Secretary C T Ravi, MLA Dr Y C Vishwanath among others were present.

Bengaluru, Feb 27: Karnataka Chief Minister and veteran BJP leader B S Yediyurappa turned 78 on Thursday with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and a host of leaders greeting him.

Modi hailed Yediyurappa as a "hardworking" chief minister and wished him long life and good health, while several state leaders flocked to his residence and greeted the Lingayat strongman.

"Birthday greetings to Karnataka's hardworking CM @BSYBJP Ji. He is passionately working for the state's progress, especially on farmer welfare and rural development. I pray for his long life and good health," the Prime Minister tweeted.

A large-scale "non-partisan" birthday bash will be held here later in the evening.

The felicitation function will see Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and former chief minister S M Krishna besides Siddaramaiah of Congress and H D Kumaraswamy of JD(S) sharing the stage.

Union Ministers D V Sadananda Gowda, also a former chief minister, Pralhad Joshi and Suresh Angadi will be in attendance.

BJP National General Secretary (Organisation) B L Santosh and state party chief Nalin Kumar Kateel are among those who will be gracing the event.

While Santosh will release a felicitation volume in Kannada with 78 articles from a cross-section of people, including politicians, writers, bureaucrats, and spiritual leaders; Siddaramaiah and Kumaraswamy will unveil a coffee table book and documentary respectively.

Yediyurappa, on the eve of his birthday on Wednesday, had said whatever he has achieved is a result of the people's "blessings and faith" and requested well-wishers not to bring bouquets, flowers, shawls, sweets, turbans or any souvenirs to greet him.

The birthday function organised by "Yediyurappa Abhinandana Samiti" (Yediyurappa Felicitation Committee) is being seen in some quarters as an attempt by Yediyurappa and his loyalists to send a message to the party leadership that he was still "strong".

The BJP's current dispensation under Narendra Modi and Amit Shah has retired several senior party leaders who crossed the age of 75.

However, an exception was said to have been made in Yediyurappa's case after the BJP won 25 of 28 seats in the Lok Sabha election under his leadership.

In the 2018 elections, he spearheaded the campaign of the BJP which emerged as the single largest party but fell short of the majority mark following which Congress and JD(S) came to power stitching a post-poll pact.

However, the coalition collapsed in July last year, paving the way for return of Yediyurappa as Chief Minister for the fourth time.

New Delhi, Feb 7: The Supreme Court on Friday issued a notice to the Central government on a plea challenging the Constitutional validity of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and effective implementation of the Assam Accord.

A bench of Chief Justice of India (CJI) SA Bobde also sought Centre's response on the plea filed by Assam Social Justice Forum.

The petition sought appropriate directions for taking effective steps for the implementation of Assam Accord, 1985 in letter and spirit and for conservation and preservation of the of a distinct culture, heritage and traditions of the indigenous people of Assam.

The Assam Accord, 1985, had fixed March 24, 1971, as the cut-off date for deportation of all illegal immigrants irrespective of their religion.

The Bench also sought Centre's response on another fresh batch of pleas challenging CAA and tagged them along with other petitions pending in the matter.

One of the petitions, filed by the Association of Advocates from Maharashtra among others, sought to declare the Citizenship Amendment Act as discriminatory, arbitrary, and illegal and consequently set aside the impugned act as ultra-vires the Constitution of India.

On the other hand, over a hundred petitions have been filed in the apex court, for and against the amended citizenship law, which is facing opposition and protests across the country.

CAA grants citizenship to Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians who fled religious persecution in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan and took refuge in India on or before December 31, 2014.
