Mysuru, Jul 23: Describing the murder of RSS worker Sharath Madivala in Bantwal as politically motivated, BJP leader and former minister R Ashoka has accused Dakshina Kannada in-charge Minister B Ramanath Rai of aiding the killers.ashoa

Ashoka, who took part in a protest at Agrahara organised by members of Vishwa Hindu Parishat (VHP) to condemn the murder of Madivala on Saturday, said that killers of Sharath will not surrender if Mr Rai offers special puja to god.

He told reporters that instead of offering pujas, the government should owe responsibility and conduct a thorough investigation into the murder. Rai had offered puja at Rajarajeshwari Temple in Polali, DK district, on Friday.

Ashoka said that the law and order situation had completely collapsed in the state and Congress government had failed to maintain peace.

“The murder of BJP and RSS workers is politically motivated and the state government is targeting the upcoming elections instead of taking suitable action against the culprits. Chief Minister Siddarmaiah is mooting a separate flag for the state to divert people’s attention. The chief minister should convene a meeting with members of all political parties and pro-Kannada organisations to discuss about a flag for Karnataka,” he said.

Ashoka alleged that the CM is indirectly supporting AIADMK leader V Sasikala and is thus providing her VIP treatment in the Bengaluru Central Prisons at Parappana Agrahara.

“Though the dams have not filled, the state government is already releasing water to Tamil Nadu,” he said.

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government. 

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited. 

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

Mysuru, May 19: Union Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Tuesday announced the results of garbage free-star rating for Indian cities.

He said that Ambikapur in Chhattisgarh, Rajkot in Gujarat, Mysuru in Karnataka, Indore in Madhya Pradesh and Navi Mumbai in Maharashtra have got a five-star rating.

Puri extended the wishes to the cities who got a five-star rating and said it came at a time when the entire world, including India, are reeling under the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.

"It was the intention of my senior colleagues and others to declare the result of star rating of garbage-free cities much earlier but we decided to postpone because we wanted at least some degree of opening to take place and we thought the timing is correct," Puri said.

The minister said that of all the flagship programmes Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced, Swachta Mission is the most important programme for him.

"I have often shared with you my assessment that of all the flagship programmes that the Prime Minister had announced after the 2014 election results. But my personal view, a view I have had a citizen and certainly a view that is fortified by my experience as Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs, that the Swachta Mission by far is the most important programme of all the missions," Puri said
