Addressing media persons in the city on Monday, the 79-year-old outspoken leader hailed the contributions of 85-year-old Krishna to the party and the state, but dubbed the latter's decision to bid goodbye to the party as ablunder'.

At the same time Mr Poojary admitted that Mr Krishna was not given a fair treatment by the Congress and was sidelined too. He also held contemporary Congress leaders responsible for the exit of veterans from the party.

“We know that you (Krishna) are an able leader. Whatever you spoke at the recent press conference was truth. But, being such a great leader, you should not have quit the party. That was a blunder. We could have fought together to save the party," said Mr Poojary, who is equally unhappy with Siddaramaiah.

Mr Poojary also exhorted Mr Krishna to reconsider his decision and warned him against joining any other party. “You can be an asset for opposition parties. But, in fact they are waiting to finish you completely. If BJP really loves you, let them make you President of India,” he said.

Describing Siddaramiah, as aShani' or curse to the Congress party, Mr Poojary promised his complete support to Mr Krishna to fight against thearrogance' of chief minister. “To save Congress in Karnataka, we need to kick out Siddaramiah,” he said.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: Karnataka Legislative Assembly Speaker Vishvesha Hegde Kageri on Friday announced continuation of ban on private TV channels from live coverage of the Budget Session being held this Month and next month.

Addressing a press conference here, Mr Kageri said that the ban was imposed on the lines of practice in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha in the Parliament. Private channels will not be allowed to cover live on going session instead they will be provided with clippings by the concerned Department as was done during the previous Session.

For the first time in the history the BJP government, which had come to power for the second time in the state last year after pulling down Congress-JDS coalition government, had banned live coverage of the session by private channels and despite Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa's appeal the ban was not lifted.
