Mangaluru, Jul 20: Dakshina Kannada district unit of the Social Democratic Party of India has demanded the resignation of BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje for telling lies to union home minister and baselessly accusing the party of supporting the accused in murders reported in the State.’sobha

He said that Karandlaje had erred in including the name of Ashok Poojary, a victim of assault, in the list of 23 persons murdered in the State in the last four years.

This list was submitted along with Ms. Karandlaje’s letter to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh seeking investigation by National Investigation Agency of the murder of RSS activist Sharath and 22 others.

Mr. Bellare said that among the 23 mentioned in the list, one has committed suicide.

There are a few cases where victims have died following a fight for personal reasons and also because of gang fights. The Udupi MP has falsely accused SDPI of supporting those arrested in those cases.

Mr. Bellare said that Karandlaje should seek an apology in public for giving an erroneous report to the Union Home Minister and falsely accusing SDPI of supporting the accused.

“If she fails to do it, we will seek legal advice and file a defamation case against Ms. Karandlaje,” Mr. Bellare told reporters.

Jun 19: BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday said Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray should sign an agreement with neighbouring Karnataka to avoid a repeat of flood in part of the state like it happened in August last year.

In August 2019, Kolhapur, Sangli districts and some other parts of the state faced unprecedented floods triggered by huge release of water from dams in western Maharashtra and from the Almatti dam in Karnataka.

Fadnavis said, The Maharashtra chief minister should hold an urgent meeting with the Karnataka chief minister and enter into an agreement over-discharge of water from the Almatti dam located on the border of both the states."

If water is not released from the Almatti dam in time, it will cause flooding in border areas of Maharashtra such as Kolhapur and Sangli.

"A pact between the two states would benefit both as it would help in keeping water levels in control, the former chief minister said.

The dams in the state already have sizeable water stock. It would be better if the chief minster schedules a meeting with the Karnataka chief minister regarding the same (agreement), the Leader of Opposition in the assembly said.
