Not in a position to fight BJP alone; will join hands with others in LS polls: Karnataka Cong chief

Newsroom, Aug 28: The Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president Dinesh Gundu Rao has candidly admitted that his party is not in a position to fight the Bharatiya Janata Party singlehandedly in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls as the latter has too much money.

Responding to a query at a press conference in Dharwad yesterday, the KPCC chief said, “Under the current circumstances, the Congress is not in a position to take on the BJP. We will join hands with like-minded parties in the ensuing Lok Sabha elections to keep the communal agents out of power,” he said.

Mr Rao has said that right wing elements believing in violent methods to settle debate were gaining clout under the governance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“I do not have evidence to claim that the BJP and the Sangh Parivar are behind the killings of rationalists and activists subscribing to ideologies different from that of the right wing. However, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) report on the killing of rationalist Narendra Dabholkar and activist Gowri Lankesh has proved that systematic planning and execution are taking place by some extremist right wing organisations,” he said.

He further stated that people were being killed in the name of cow vigilantism and other such issues. For every crime, there is a punishment. But some right wing extremists have taken it upon themselves to provide mob justice, which is dangerous to democracy. Congress and All India Congress Committee president Rahul Gandhi are opposing this divisive ideology and are going to the people seeking vote against the hatred politics of the BJP, he said.

He added that co-ordination committee chairman Siddaramaiah is not acting as a Leader of the Opposition and a section of media was misinterpreting his statements. “Mr. Siddaramaiah himself has clarified his statement on becoming Chief Minister. So, there is nothing more for me to add,” he said.

Mr Rao said that the BJP is still continuing with its efforts to break the coalition government. “However, it has not succeeded in luring our MLAs. None of the MLAs will leave the party, as they don’t fear CBI raids nor they will fall to its lures,” he added.

Mangaluru, June 10: The first direct repatriation flight from Damma to Mangaluru International Airport under Vande Bharat Mission will be operated on June 21.

Thousands of people from coastal districts of Karnataka are stranded without flights in different parts of Saudi Arabia after the announcement of covid lockdown in March this year. 

Even though the government of India launched Vande Bharat Mission to repatriate Indian expatriate through special flights, no flight was scheduled from Saudi Arabia to Mangaluru.

Several organisations had exerted pressure on the government of India and government of Karnataka to bring back stranded Kannadigas from Saudi Arabia.  

With the sole intention of helping the stranded Kannadigas, a few philanthropists in Saudi Arabia last month formed an NGO called Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum under the leadership of Zakariya Bajpe and Sheikh Expertise.

Mangaluru, Jan 2: The Muslim Central Committee of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi has dropped its plan to stage a massive protest against the contentious Citizenship (Amendment) Act and National Register of Citizens on January 4 at Mangaluru’s Nehru Maidan.

Addressing a press conference here today, committee chief K S Mohammed Masood made this announcement.

“All the 28 organisations that had decided to stage protest under the leadership of the Muslim Central Committee, have unanimously agreed to temporarily cancel the protest plan after the city police refused permission for the event,” he said.

Mr Masood requested the people, especially the youth, not to lose patience. “No one should head to Nehru Maidan on January 4 as Muslim leaders have unanimously decided to cancel the protest,” he urged.

S M Rasheed Haji, Y Abdulla Kunhi, Umar UH, Ibrahim Kodichal, B M Mumtaz Ali, Khasim H K, Mansoor Ahmed Azad and Asif Deals were present in the press meet.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

 

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

We respect ur decision sir.

 

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

 

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

 

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
