Prakash Raj taunts Yogi over his Tipu-Hanuman remarks in poll-bound Karnataka

Multilingual actor Prakash Raj has taken objection to Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath’s insensitive remarks in poll-bound Karnataka wherein the latter apparently tried to divide society in the name of Tipu Sultan and Hanuman.

In a tweet, Prakash Raj said: "Yogi ji orders people of Karnataka “don’t celebrate tippu sultan in the land of hanuman” dear sir.. what’s your agenda again...#justasking" with a set of photos showing BJP functionaries and BS Yeddyurappa himself celebrating Tipu Jayanti, complete with the headgear Tipu was noted to wear.

Addressing a BJP rally in Hubballi on Thursday, Adityanath targeted the incumbent Congress government for celebrating Tipu Jayanti.

During his speech, Yogi said that "When Lord Hanuman is being worshipped across the country, the Congress government in Karnataka, the State known for Vijayanagar Empire, is promoting the worship of Tipu Sultan. The Congress is insulting our rich tradition. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah should have respected the feelings of the people while making statements about beef consumption. With continuous murder and poor law and order situation, 'Rakshak' has become 'Bhakshak' here, and anarchy is prevailing."

Belgaum, Mar 30: As many as 2442 labourers hailing from Karnataka have been brought back in 62 buses by the State government from Maharashtra on Sunday, in the backdrop of nation-wide lockdown following COVID-19 outbreak.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Saturday urged migrant labourers not to leave the State owing to the nationwide lockdown and assured that the Maharashtra government will look after their interests.

Hundreds of migrants, a majority of whom are daily wage workers started rushing to their native places from different states amid uncertainty over their livelihood following the announcement of a 21-day nationwide lockdown by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week in order to contain the spread of novel coronavirus.

Bengaluru, Jan 6: There is a wide spread criticism by the Janata Dal(S) and Congress leaders over a proposal to rename Ramanagaram district as New (Nava) Bengaluru, Karnataka Chief Minister CM Yediyurappa said on Monday.

“An unnecessary discussion on renaming Ramanagaram is under way. There is no thought before the government over renaming," The CM accused the Congress and JD(S) leaders of indulging in baseless discussion to mislead the people and to remain relevant. "There is no such agenda before the government. It is a joke that JD(S) and Congress leaders are starting a fight over it.”

The Chief Minister’s clarification came after criticism by former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, who carved out the Ramanagaram district when he was Chief Minister, and former Minister DK Shivakumar whose Kanakapura constituency is in Ramanagaram district, after Deputy Chief Minister CN Ashwath Narayan said Ramanagaram could be renamed as Nava Bengaluru to increase investments prospects.
