Bengaluru, Dec 7: Sri Shivakumara Swamiji, the centenarian head of Sri Siddaganga Mutt in Tumakuru, was airlifted on Friday to Chennai for treatment after he suffered gall balder infection and fever.

The seer was taken in an Air Ambulance from HAL Airport. At Chennai he will be admitted to Rela Institute of Medical Centre for treatment.

Earlier in the day, a team of doctors, including Siddaganga Hospital and Research Centre’s director Dr Parameshwarappa, and mutt authorities, including the junior pontiff, held long deliberations about shifting the pontiff to Dr Rela Insitute and Medical Centre at Chromepet in Chennai.

The doctors consulted Dr Mohamed Rela, an expert in liver transplantation at Chennai, who agreed to examine the ailing pontiff. Sources said Dr Rela had in the past visited the mutt and sought the seer’s blessings. “The seer had his normal food and is responding to the treatment,” a source in the mutt said.

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwara called on the 111-year-old Swamiji at the Mutt in Tumakaru and inquired about his health. Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy is also in close touch with the junior seer of Siddaganga Math getting updates of his health and arranged for his travel to Chennai on an Air Ambulance.

CAA violates Constitution, reiterates Khader

News Network

February 19,2020

Bengaluru, Feb 19: Congress MLA UT Khader on Wednesday slammed the Central government over the enactment of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and said it violates the Constitution.

"The new citizenship amendment bill is unconstitutional. The citizenship cannot be given on cast and creed basis. Because of these things we are fighting against it," he said while speaking to media in Bengaluru.

Opposition along with several non-BJP state governments, including Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Punjab and Rajasthan have refused to implement the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the proposed NRC in their respective states.

The CAA grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist and Christian refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.

Nalin Kumar Kateel hits out at Kharge for anti-Modi remark

News Network

February 10,2020

Chitradurga, Feb 10: President of the BJP State unit Nalin Kumar Kateel on Sunday hit out at Congress leader M. Mallikarjun Kharge for allegedly likening Prime Minister Narendra Modi to a “zero candle bulb”.

Mr. Kateel told reporters here that Mr. Modi was a “1,000 watt bulb that gave light to the world”, and compared Mr. Kharge to a lamp that had burned out politically.

Mr. Kateel charged that Mr. Kharge had become frustrated after losing the elections and after his party did not even consider him for a Rajya Sabha seat. And this had made the Congress leader to make wild charges against the Prime Minister.

Lashing out at the Congress, Mr. Kateel alleged that the Congress was continuing the “divide and rule” policy of the British and accused the former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda of being the “other face of the Congress”.

Mr. Kateel also came down on the former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. He ridiculed the Congress for the delay in choosing a new KPCC chief after Dinesh Gundu Rao submitted his resignation.
