Bengaluru, Mar 22: In an interesting development in Karnataka politics, A S Patil Nadahalli, a rebel Congress MLA from Devarahippargi, who had found place in the list of Janata Dal (Secular) candidates for Karnataka Assembly polls 2018, has embraced Baratiya Janata Party.

The three time MLA from Devarahippargi in Vijayapura district, Nadahalli admitted that the prime reason for dissociating himself from JD(S) was that the regional party did not consider his wife, Mahadevi, for an assembly ticket. “When father and son, younger and older brothers can contest from JD(S), why cannot my wife and me both contest?” questioned Nadahalli.

The rebel Congress MLA, who was dismissed from the ruling party for “anti-party” activities by publicly joining and pledging his loyalty to JD(S) till about a month ago, admitted that he had vacated the seat from where he had won thrice for the JD(S) president H D Kumaraswamy to contest.

Nadahalli’s name had figured on the first list of candidates announced by the JD(S) for the Assembly elections. He was supposed to contest on the JD(S) ticket from Muddebihal constituency.

However, on Wednesday he crossed the floors again and joined the BJP in the presence of its State president B S Yeddyurappa in Bengaluru. The former MLA for Madhugiri Ganga Hanumaiah too joined the BJP on the occasion.

According to sources, the BJP is likely to field him as its candidate. Nadahalli had hit the headlines after he took on Chief Minister Siddaramaiah as a ruling party member.

Nadahalli, however, said he has not been promised any tickets for him and his wife by the BJP. “I have joined BJP with an open mind and there has been no assurances from the party with regard to assembly tickets to me and my wife. I will work as per the wishes of the party leadership,” he said.

Shameless and power hungry person joining a party having same strategy. I request voters to shit on his face and dont give a single vote. He has no manners and sold himself for money. People like him change their trust based on situation and look for their own benefit.

Palghar lynching: Arnab Goswami booked for promoting enmity, defamation

News Network

April 23,2020

Apr 23: An FIR has been registered in Nagpur against Republic TV channel's editor Arnab Goswami for promoting social disharmony and accusing Congress President Sonia Gandhi of orchestrating the Palghar lynching.

Three Mumbai residents, including two sadhus, who were on their way to Silvassa on April 16, were lynched by a mob in Gadakchinchale village of Palghar district on the suspicion that they were thieves. Nagpur Police Commissioner B K Upadhyaya said they received a complaint which was turned into an FIR at Sadar police station.

DCP Vinita Sahu said Goswami has been booked under sections 117 (abetting commission of offence by the public or by more than 10 persons), 120 (B) (criminal conspiracy), 153 (A) (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony), 153 (B) (imputations, assertions prejudicial to national-integration), 295 (A) (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs), 290-A (public nuisance in cases not otherwise provided for), 500 (defamation), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the ipc. Another FIR was filed against him in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.

In a statement condemning Goswami, Maharashtra Congress said the killing has been wrongly given a communal angle despite ample proof of the contrary. "At a time when country is fighting against coronavirus pandemic, it is very unfortunate that a section of media as well as politicians are trying to create social unrest... [and] spread racial and religious hatred in society. Goswami has tried to create misogyny against women in the society. He made an outrageous remark against the Congress president on a live TV programme. This is completely unethical journalism and we publicly protest it. We believe in brotherhood and cannot accept such animosity. This will be dangerous for the unity and integrity of the country (sic)," it said.
