Bengaluru, Aug 29: Debunking speculation that Congress leader Siddaramaiah was trying to destabilise the coalition government, chief minister Kumaraswamy has said that the former extended all the support for the smooth functioning of the government.

“It is only because of Siddaramaiah that we are running a secure government. He will not give any sort of support for such destabilising activities, and the government will complete its five-year tenure under the protection of Siddaramaiah himself,” said the CM and urged media not to spread unnecessary rumours.

Meanwhile, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president Dinesh Gundu Rao, president also ruled out any serious differences between the coalition partners that would pose a threat to the stability of the State government.

He said that the coalition was forged in Karnataka to keep BJP at bay from getting to power. The Congress has clarity on the responsibilities that it should discharge to ensure the smooth functioning of the government, he said.

Regarding Siddaramaiah’s statement that he wanted to become CM once again, Rao said, “Siddaramaiah’s statements have been blown out of proportion. When the audience at a public meeting in Hassan district said that he should become CM again, Siddaramaiah responded in a casual manner that the wishes of the people would be fulfilled. Later, he has clarified that such development may take place only after the present government completes its term.”

When quizzed on Kumaraswamy’s recent statement that efforts were being made to destabilise his government, Rao said, “Kumaraswamy has not said that any Congress leader is trying to destabilise the government. His allegations are pointed towards the BJP,” he said. Rao alleged that to destablise the government, Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa was contacting Congress and JD(S) MLAs regularly.

Bengaluru, Jul 19: A man protested in front of Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa's residence on Saturday alleging lack of medical care claimed the life of his one-month-old infant girl, police said on Saturday.

Venkatesh sat with the baby's photograph in front of the Chief Minister's house, saying the girl developed health issues on July 11 and he rushed her to a hospital, but it turned him away, the police said.

He said he had approached about a dozen hospitals and all of them refused to provide the baby any medical care. Eventually, the baby died.

This forced Venkatesh to hold a protest to draw the Chief Minister's attention to the issue, the police said.

The demonstration drew public attention and a few people joined him in the protest, they said.

Mangaluru, Aug 4: The Kasaragod district administration has decided to restore the e-pass system for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru amid covid-19 crisis. 

As covid-19 cases began to increase in Dakshina Kannada, the Kasargod district administration had unilaterally newly introduced of daily pass system on July 6 for entry and exit from Talapady border. This had inconvenienced hundreds of employees, who visited Mangaluru daily to eke a living. 

The decision to resume the pass system was taken in a video conference of Kerala Revenue Minister Chandrasekharan with officials and elected representatives on August 3.

The minister said the Kasaragod district administration will resume issuing of passes for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru. But they should undergo rapid antigen test for every week to renew their passes.

"Similarly, one-time interstate passes will be issued for those who want to take part in marriages, funeral and other functions in both states. Even they should undergo antigen test after returning from the functions,” the minister added.

As per the previous order, daily commuters, especially employees, had to stay in Mangaluru for 28 days before returning to Kasargod. Later, Kerala government relaxed rules on July 23 allowing only bank employees from Kasaragod to travel daily in their private vehicles to their workplace in Dakshina Kannada.

Bidar, Feb 15: Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Siddaramaiah on Friday demanded the State government to withdraw the sedition case against a mother and a teacher of Shaheen school immediately.

“The police can’t execute anything without the government’s permission. The sedition case against two women should be withdrawn immediately. I will raise the matter in the Assembly to draw the government’s attention,” Siddaramaiah told reporters after meeting the woman at the prison here. 

He clarified that he visited the woman not to support the school, but to extend moral support to her.

“I am an advocate and I can clearly establish based on my experience that staging a satirical play doesn’t amount for sedition. It doesn’t even defame anybody. Three cases of sedition have been registered across the state,” he charged.

He alleged that the government was following dual policy. Though the Supreme Court had concluded that the demolition of Babri Masjid was illegal, a play dealing with the demolition was staged at Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat’s school.
The sedition case had not been registered for staging the play.

He charged that there was an undeclared emergency in the country as the freedom of expression was being suppressed.
