Mysuru, Apr 21: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, on Saturday, said that he doesn’t even know whether incumbent Mandya MLA M H Ambareesh had accepted the ‘B’ form issued by the party or not.

Replying to queries of media persons near his residence in TK Layout here, the CM said: “The KPCC president has issued ‘B’ form to Ambareesh and he has to contest. I am unaware whether he has received it or not”. 

The chief minister also clarified that said he would not meet Ambareesh. 

Excise Minister R B Timmapur, who was with Siddaramaiah, said he had been urging Siddaramaiah to contest from Badami Assembly segment in Bagalkot district for the development of the region. “He will contest from both Chamundeshwari and Badami Assembly segments,” Timmapur said.

However, Siddaramaiah maintained that he would discuss with the party command and take a decision on contesting from Badami.

Dear CM

You have taken a right decision. No need to bow down to him . He don't know how to talk in  a podium. Talking like bewda. i saw many clips where he is talking like a king.  I think he don't know what is he talking. After getting a cabinet ministry, what was his contribution to the soceity??  ZERO -  So better to keep him away from the party.

Bengaluru, May 18: Indian food delivery startup Swiggy said on Monday it would lay off 1,100 employees, or nearly 14% of its workforce, to cut costs, as a weeks-long nationwide lockdown to curb the coronavirus outbreak hits demand for online food ordering.

The company, backed by South African internet giant Naspers, also said it will scale down adjacent businesses and has already shut several of its cloud kitchens - facilities that only cater to takeaway orders - temporarily or permanently.

“The core food delivery business has been severely impacted and will stay impacted over the short term, but is expected to start growing again after that,” said Sriharsha Majety, co-founder and chief executive at Bengaluru-based Swiggy.

Swiggy, one of India’s best known startups, is among many that are laying off employees and reshaping their business in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has forced 1.3 billion Indians indoors and crippled business.

India is currently under a two-month lockdown, and though several curbs are being eased, public places such as restaurants remain closed, hurting restaurants themselves as well as companies such as Swiggy and main rival Zomato.
