Mangalore, October 29: Businessman Sadananda Shetty will contest Assembly elections from as the Janata Dal (Secular) candidate from the Mangalore South constituency, announced H D Kumaraswamy, Former Chief Minister and JD(S) State President, at a party convention held at Town Hall in Mangalore on Monday where Mr. Shetty was officially inducted into the JD(S).

Mr. Shetty was inducted into the party along with several others including Pascal Pinto, President, United Associations of Karnataka, Kuwait, on the occasion by Mr. Kumarswamy.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Kumaraswamy said that minorities must not get carried away by the recent Mangalore visit of AICC chief Sonia Gandhi. “Minorities will not get protection from Congress. The Congress party itself is in a state of mess and Ms. Gandhi's advise to party leaders about putting aside differences suggests just that. The Congress speaks about BJP's failures and corruption but none of the Congress leaders made an attempt to bring out BJP's corruption. JD(S) has been acting as the real opposition party in the state”, he said.

The Former Chief Minister also took a dig at Union Minister M Veerappa Moily for stating that the internal conflict of the BJP has ensured that Congress will win the next elections. “Moily's calculations are not going to work. People in his own Chikkaballapur constituency are plagued with problems which he has not attended to. JD(S) is not a party with kickback culture. Congress leaders are just fantasizing things and the JD(S) will make sure that regaining power for Congress is not all that easy”, he said.

Slamming his successor to the Chief Ministerial post B S Yeddyurappa, Mr. Kumaraswamy said that his governance has only burdened the people of the state with more taxes. 9 lakh beneficiaries were deprived of pensions in his tenure, he alleged.

MC Nanaiah, MLA, and senior JD(S) leader, said that people of Dakshina Kannada need to introspect as to whether BJP needs to be given another chance to rule the state. “They are the ones who sowed the seeds of 'Taliban' culture here”, he said.

Madhu Bangarappa, Amarnath Shetty, Nagaraj Shetty, MG Hegde, MB Sadashiva, Hyder Parthipady and other JD(S) leaders were present.

Kalaburgi, May 27: Karnataka's Kalaburgi district recorded a maximum temperature of 44 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, as per information provided by the India Meteorological Department (IMD).

In light of the increasing mercury levels, people here were seen consuming sugarcane juice and cold drinks to beat the heat. Animals and birds could also be seen searching for water for relief from the scorching sun.

Locals of the area requested the district administration to take necessary actions such as spraying water on roads, in order to bring down the temperatures.

"We are facing huge heat waves in this district from the past two days, and even the temperature is around 44 to 45 degrees on a daily basis. So, it is a very alarming situation in Kalaburgi. When we move around the city, we are unable to find water and fresh fruit juice, and even if fresh juice is available, we are afraid of getting infected by COVID-19," said one local.

"If we carry cold water, it gets warm within half an hour, and gets unfit for drinking, and it is tough for us. I request the district administration to look into this matter and do the needful such as spraying water on the roads, etc. for slightest relief," he added.
