Mangalore, June 2: This is the time to prove that educated voters are with the Bharatiya Janata Party, said Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda.

He was addressing BJP workers at a preparatory meeting of the party in connection with election to South-West Teachers' Constituency and South-West Graduates Constituency scheduled on June 10.

Mr Gowda told party workers that winning the coming State Legislative Council election would be a challenge for the party.

The party has fielded D. H. Shankaramurthy, Chairperson, Karnataka Legislative Council as the candidate for South-West Graduates' Constituency for the fifth time. It has fielded Ganesh Karnik, sitting MLC, as its candidate for the South-West Teachers' Constituency for the second time.

Mr Gowda said that the Legislative Council had MLCs representing different sectors of the society. The council always had a healthy debate in detail over many issues. The council discussed more issues when compared to issues discussed in the Legislative Assembly.

He reiterated that services of the State Secretariat would also be brought under the ambit of Sakala launched this April. He said that of the 18.50 lakh applications filed under the scheme in a month after its launch, the government had disposed off 15.34 lakh applications.

The Chief Minister claimed that the BJP announcing the names of its six candidates for the election of MLCs from the Legislative Assembly without any issues indicated that the party was united. He said that the Congress was now divided over selecting its candidates. Congress leader Siddaramaiah has quit as the Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly over issues relating to selection of Congress candidates.

Minister for Medical Education S. A. Ramdas said that the coming election to the Legislative Council from the constituencies of teachers and graduates would be a “semi-final” to the next year's election to the State Assembly. The Minister said the BJP had to carry out “operation Kamala” due to the fractured verdict in the last Assembly elections.

DK Shivakumar finally receives govt nod for swearing-in event

News Network

June 11,2020

Bengaluru, Jun 11: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Thursday allowed the Opposition Congress party's newly elected state president DK Shivakumar to have a formal swearing-in function.

He told media, “I have spoken to Shivakumar and informed him to conduct the event after taking precautionary measures against the spread of the COVID-19 disease”.

The move came after the state government received flak from the main Opposition Congress leaders, for refusing to permit the newly elected State Congress president to have a formal swearing-in function take reigns from his predecessor Dinesh Gundu Rao.

Vatican rejects second appeal of Kerala nun against her expulsion from congregation

News Network

March 2,2020

Kochi, Mar 2: The Vatican has rejected the second appeal by Sister Lucy Kalappura -- one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal -- against her expulsion from Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC).

In her plea, she had demanded that her version be heard and her expulsion from FCC revoked.

She was expelled from FCC for participating in public protests demanding the arrest of Franco Mulakkal in the nun rape case.

''I got a letter from Vatican which says my appeal has been rejected. But the rest of the letter is written in the Latin language. So after I understand it, I will respond," Sister Lucy told news agency.

''The authorities are contemptuous of those who make such complaints. That is why the letter is written in Latin. Sister Lucy would continue her legal fight in the courts,'' said George Moolechalil, who has been authorised by Sister Lucy to communicate with the media on her behalf.

A petition of Sister Lucy is still pending at Mananthavady Munsif Court at Wayanad that demands that she should not be expelled from the convent where she is staying.

Religious issues should be resolved within the guidelines of devine laws.

Unfortunately the Chrisitianity is no more in its originality.

The holy bible has been systematically abused and edited to the benefits of rulers.

The book has been contaminated with lots of editions.

People should search for truth and follow it.

Example, the religion never told to remain unmarried for priests or nuns.

They go against its teaching inveting their own idea against God's teaching.

Vatican is a corporate person.
