Bengaluru, Jan 1: With the mystery shrouds over the whereabouts of the Congress dissident MLA, Ramesh Jarakhiholi continues, former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP State President B S Yeddyurappa denied that the sacked minister had met BJP’s national President Amit Shah at New Delhi.

Addressing a press conference here on Tuesday, B S Yeddyurppa, who is nursing ambition to get reinstated as the Chief Minister, expressed ignorance about Jarakhiholi meeting Amit Shah at New Delhi.

“There is no any possibilities of Amit Shah meeting with the disgruntled Congress MLA” he said.

Maintaining that he is busy with strengthening the rank and file of the party in preparation to the coming Lok Sabha elections, he said that “We have no plans to bring down the JD(S)-Congress Coalition government in Karnataka”.

Ramesh Jarakhiholi, ever since dropped from the Cabinet, has remained incommunicado to the party leaders and reportedly camping at New Delhi and holding negotiations to support the BJP.

However, former Chief Minister, and the Coordination Committee Chairman, Siddaramaiah reiterated his charge that BJP leaders are in constant touch with the Congress MLAs and making all-out efforts to come back to power.

The Congress MLA from Afzalpur M Y Patil accused that BJP leaders have offered him to join the Saffron party and help to form the BJP government in the State.

Stating that he will remain in Congress and thwart any efforts of the BJP, he said that “JD(S)-Congress Coalition government will complete its full term in Karnataka”.

On accused Aditya Rao, the suspect in the case, who surrendered before Bengaluru police on Wednesday morning, the senior Congress leader said, “I have not yet gathered complete information about the accused in the case, therefore I would not like to comment about him.”

Bengaluru, May 16: Health Minister B Sriramulu has sought the aid of Home department for curbing sex work in certain parts of the state - which continues unabated despite lockdown.

“It poses health risks to those involved. I request the department to ensure that the business is prohibited at such a time of crisis,” he stated in a letter to Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai.  

At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of these workers, Sriramulu has asked both the Health department and the Karnataka State AIDS Prevention Society (KSAPS) to come up with a detailed report on rehabilitation of sex workers and transgenders.

The Health minister’s order was prompted by a letter by writer and activist Roopa Hassan. The writer, who was earlier member of a panel (led by actor-turned-politician Jayamala) on the study of issues faced by sex workers, had sought government’s intervention to stop condom distribution to registered sex workers and transgenders, as continuing work during pandemic was posing health risks to the community.
