Mangaluru, Jun 2: Senior Congress leader U T Khader on Sunday accused Billava leader Hariskrishna Bantwal of unnecessarily raking up a controversy by making allegation against Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister and Bunt stalwart B Ramanath Rai.poojary copy

Mr Bantwal, who was expelled from the Congress for rebelling against the party’s official candidate during 2015 Council polls, recently accused Mr Rai of using abusive words against former union minister B Janardhana Poojary, who is also the most senior political leader from Billava community.

Replying to queries of media persons at a press meet in the city on the issue, Mr Khader, the minister for food, civil supplies and consumer affairs, said that he has never seen Mr Rai insulting or disrespecting Mr Poojary so far.

He said that as far as he had seen, Mr Rai was very loyal to Mr Poojary and had never spoken in singular terms about him.

“Rai always respected Poojary and the former can never use such derogatory terms for the latter,” said Mr Khader, who has maintained good relationship with all local leaders of the Congress including Mr Rai and Mr Poojary.

Bengaluru, Jun 20: Amid calls for boycott of Chinese products in the backdrop of Indo-China border face-off, former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy sought to know from the BJP government in Karnataka the status of the "Compete with China" policy brought during the previous JDS-Congress rule.

Boycotting Chinese products was not easy like sloganeering but required a creative policy and the coalition government's initiative was a model for it, he said in a series of tweets.

"After the border skirmish, some people got the realisation to boycott the Chinese products but during my tenure (as chief minister) a serious thought was given to it," the JDS leader said.

He was apparently referring to growing clamour for boycott of China-made products after a violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh left 20 Indian Army personnel dead early this week.

Mr Kumaraswamy said he had brought the Compete With China policy to effectively deal with the neighbouring country.

"My government's objective was to offer jobs to the local residents, snatch away market opportunities for China and discard the Chinese products."

"However, what has the present government done to our scheme? It is not known whether it is still continuing or not," Mr Kumaraswamy said.

The Kumarswamy government had identified clusters and earmarked Rs 2,000 crore for their development.
