Mangaluru, Aug 29: District in-charge Minister B. Ramanath Rai on Tuesday said that he will lead a peace march — Samarasyakkagi Nadige, from Farangipete to Maani in Bantwal taluk on September 12.

Mr. Rai told presspersons here that the walk is aimed at ushering in peace in the region that witnessed disturbances recently. It would be an apolitical rally; but he would not like participation either from the right wing organisations, including the BJP, or the SDPI as he believes both were responsible for the trouble.

The walk would start at 10.30 a.m. from Farangipete; and upon its culmination at Maani, a public meeting would be held. Mr. Rai urged all peace-loving citizens of the district to participate in the walk and the meeting.

The Minister said that several people had demanded that he hold a peace march when several untoward incidents occurred in the district in the recent past. He had planned the peace march in response to such requests.

He would invite leaders from social and religious organisations too.

The peach march is not being organised under the banner of any political party and it is open to all peace-loving citizens, he clarified.

Chikkamagaluru, Jan 28: Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister and Minister for Public Works Govind Karjol on Tuesday said that he is ready to quit if the post asks him to do so to pave way for smooth expansion of the Cabinet.

Responding to a question from media persons on the issue here, he said he was ready to quit his post any time.

“If the party asks me to resign now, I will send back my official car and return by bus”, he added.

Further, he opined that there should not be efforts to seek a berth in the Cabinet based on caste.

“Putting pressure on the party based on caste is not right. The party will consider those who worked for the party and also take district-wise representation into account while filling up the vacancies”, he added.
