SDPI contesting LS polls with the sole aim to stall BJP, claims its chief

Malappuram, Apr 20: The Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) is contesting the Lok Sabha election in different parts of the country only to prevent the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from returning to power, SDPI president M K Faizi has said.

Mr. Faizi said that his party was not contesting in places where the BJP was likely to come in the second position.

Addressing a ‘meet-the-leader’ programme organised by Malappuram Press Club here on Friday, Mr. Faizi said the Congress had failed to form a broad front against fascism at national level.

He said the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) too had failed to handle properly the minority issues in the country.

He said the propaganda that IUML general secretary P K Kunhalikutty had united the opposition parties in the triple talaq issue was baseless.

He said if the mainstream parties were genuine in their stand against fascism, they should collaborate to prevent a possible victory of the BJP in Thiruvananthapuram and Pathanamthitta.

Bengaluru, Jun 28: Former Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah asked the Karnataka government to release White Paper over the state of healthcare system and the government's preparedness to address COVID-19 pandemic.

He said that the State Government to come clean on the charges of misappropriation of large sums of funds in the name of fighting the COVID-19 pandemic in the state.

"People are extremely worried about the state of our healthcare system and the government's preparedness to address pandemic. It is the responsibility of Karnataka Chief Minister to clear the doubts and reduce the panic among people. I urge the government to #ReleaseWhitePaper about the same," the Congress leader tweeted.

Siddaramaiah said that the Chief Minister should let people know about the amount of money already spent to improve healthcare facilities, the number of beds and ventilators increased and about the supply of PPE kits to COVID-19 warriors.

"Karnataka Chief Minister should also reveal the contribution of PMO India to our state. Has Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa demanded anything from Narendra Modi? How much of PM CARES Fund is spent for Karnataka's healthcare?" he asked in another tweet.

He went on to say that PMO India and Chief Minister of Karnataka "wasted crucial time during lockdown."

"The purpose of lockdown was to fill the gaps in health care system. But they just widened it by frequently changing the protocols and by not doing adequate tests," he said.

"Karnataka Chief Minister and other departments have failed to answer my multiple queries regarding the actions taken. As a leader of opposition, it is my right to question the government on behalf of people. Deliberate act of denying information is a breach of privilege. Government hospitals have reached its capacity and private hospitals are not ready to treat patients at capped prices," he wrote.

Siddaramaiah said that the Karnataka Chief Minister should either convince private players or take action against them, and added, "Not doing both is like pushing people off the cliff."

He tweeted, "The testing rates per day have come down in last 15 days even when the cases are rising. What is stopping the government from increasing the testing? The government is putting people at risk by not testing adequately."

Further attacking the state government, he wrote, "Our state needs 9000 ventilators, but we have only 1500, PMO India has sent 90 to us. Is this a joke to Karnataka Chief Minister and PMO India? #ReleaseWhitePaper about the ways that they plan to increase ventilators."
