Mysuru, Oct 22: At a time when the dust raised by former minister V Srinivasa Prasad's resignation is yet to settle, senior Congress leader and Planing Commission vice-chairman C M Ibrahim has made public his resentment against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

1cmHe said Siddaramaiah has failed to perform to people's expectations and felt that people will rate the performance of the governance in the coming elections. Stating that recent developments in the party has hurt him, Ibrahim said, “People are aware of what is going on around them and it is not possible to cheat people for a long time. A day will come when people will give them a befitting reply.”

Asked about V Srinivasa Prasad's resignation and a few senior leaders being cornered in the party, the former Union minister, who was in the city to inaugurate a jewellery mart on Friday, said they (the chief minister and the district minister) are big people. “They are like 5,000 MW high tension wire and people like us are 50 watt bulb,” he said.

When asked why he and others, who strove to make Siddaramaiah Chief Minister, are sidelined, Ibrahim said people know who is responsible for the success and failure of the government.

“I was the one who made an announcement that Siddaramaiah will be the next chief minister. We had high expectations and it is unfortunate that our hopes are shattered now,” he added.

However, Siddaramaiah who has another 18 months, should make efforts to give good governance, he said.

Recalling his association with Jayaprakash Narayan, former chief ministers Veerendra Patil, Nijalingappa and D Devaraj Urs, Ibrahim stated that they were never after power.

He defended his strong bonding and association with former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda by comparing the latter to a tulsi plant that is worshipped and also used as a herbal medicine. He prayed for Gowda's good health.

Ibrahim alleged that both the national parties did not put their souls into the Cauvery and Mahadayi disputes.

He said both the parties are likely to lose their ground in the state and hinted that like-minded people will come together in the near future.

Kasaragod, Apr 17: Even as this district continue to remain in the high-alert red zone category of Covid-19, Kasaragod has slowly but steadily been limping back to restraint level of the pandemic from a possible slipping into a stage-3 of community spread early this month.

Thanks to the stringent and committed measures implemented by the district administration crisscross the district besides total isolation of few localities by enforcing triple lockdown.

The district had been a Covid-19 hotspot ever since an NRI who returned from the Gulf violated quarantine protocol and travelled wide and far by meeting and contacting with several people including two MLAs of the district. That apart the irresponsible attitude of the people who broke the rules of quarantine and lockdown norms also made things go from bad to worse resulting in contributing for a near-half of the total positive cases in the state at the beginning of April.
