Manglauru, May 15: The Bharatiya Janata Party in Dakshina Kannada wrested six seats from the Congress in the 2018 Assembly elections — the results of which were declared today.

The BJP won in Mangalore City South, Mangalore City North, Bantwal, Puttur, Belthangady and Moodbidri Assembly constituencies — held by the Congress.

In 2013 had won only Sullia constituency in the district. This time the BJP candidate not only retained it but also increased his winning margin.

Of eight Assembly constituencies in the district, the BJP won seven and the Congress retained the Mangaluru (erstwhile Ullal) seat.

Meanwhile, the seven defeated candidates including former minister B Ramanath Rai and K Abhayachandra Jain have demanded an enquiry into the poll rigging and EVM tampering.

After the results were declared, the seven defeated MLAs led by B Ramanath Rai lodged complaint with the returning officer claiming that they suspect EVM tampering.

“We were confident of winning all 8 seats in Dakshina Kannada. The results are shocking. We demand an impartial inquiry into the possibilities of EVM tampering,” Mr Rai said. He was accompanied by J R Lobo and B A Mohiuddin Bava, the defeated candidates of Mangaluru City South and Mangaluru City North respectively.

Cong. Govt was very good and fulfilled all the promises, good in administration and Overall development and one of the top most Govt in India, and list goes. but still BJP win the election in spite of corrupt leaders, hate mongers and looters. How it is possible?
What is the Reason? Unknown?  Think of it. there is no Anti Cong. Ale,  in karnataka
There is no any major complaint against rulers during periods. one of the best performed govt.
It is very difficult to think that people of karnataka is not ignorant and hate mongers

If we analyse the Reasons may be

1) People may not concern about Janakeeya govt and development work
2)EVM magic may be?
it is not possible to prove EVM tampering because it is highly technical and Election commission and all its engineers may be fully controlled by Sangh Parivar. so there is no value for complaint. 
To whom we complaint? 
It could be hidden agenda to rule India and its state through EVM. even supreme court and justice is loosing its value. Democracy is almost in end stage

There is a lesson to think. Analyse....
Think......think.......think...... think 

Find out the reason......

Koppal, Aug 3: The activists of Popular Front of India (PFI) have won the heart of the people by performing the last rites of a local leader of Bharatiya Janata Party in Koppla district of Karnataka. 

Somashekhara Gowda, a senior BJP leader in Koppal’s Gangavathi died of covid-19. His family members were reportedly quarantined. His own party activists also were not ready to participate in the last rite due to the fear of coronavirus infection.

Following requests, a team of PFI comprised of district secretary Fayaz, and members Yaseen, Abdul Aalam, Shamid Razi and Husain Azarauddin performed the last rites as per Veerashaiva Lingayat traditions. 

Speaking to media persons PFI district president Zaheer Abbas lamented that people still have plenty of misconceptions about covid-19. “Due to the misconceptions, performing the last rites of those who die of covid-19 has become a challenge,” he said.
