Mangaluru, Jul 12: In a bizarre incident, a taluk panchayat member allegedly assaulted a doctor at Kokkada village near Dharmasthala after the latter asked the former to be cautious while driving.

Dr Ganesh Bhat (48), an Ayurvedic practitioner, who suffered nose injuries in the attack, got admitted to a private hospital in Nelyadi.

According to Dr Bhat he had been to a temple on Monday morning in his car. Lakshminarayana T M, a member of local taluk panchayat, too had visited the same temple

While returning from the temple, Lakshminarayana moved his vehicle out in the reverse direction rashly without noticing Dr Bhat's car. However, Dr Bhat averted the collision by moving his vehicle aside.

After this, Dr Bhat asked the TP member to be cautious while driving in the reverse direction.

Angered over this, Mr. Lakshminarayana allegedly barged into the former's clinic and assaulted him at around 4 p.m.

Dr. Bhat said that he got admitted to hospital after his nose started bleeding and he had severe body ache following the assault.

A complaint has been filed with the Dharmasthala police, he added.

Bengaluru, July 23: The Janta Dal (Secular) and Congress that had joined hands together in Karnataka ‘to keep communal forces at bay, have once again turned archrivals. The development comes a year after the collapse of JD(S)-Congress coalition government in the state.

Recently, Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah claimed that the Congress would have won at least 10 seats in the Lok Sabha elections had it not been for the alliance with the JD(S). In response, former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy of the JD(S), who headed the coalition government, blamed the Congress for its many 'conspiracies'.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Kumaraswamy said he was prompted by Siddarmaiah's claims to recall what transpired during the coalition government. 

"There will never be a future alliance with Congress," Kumaraswamy declared, in a letter to his party colleagues on Wednesday. He claimed that there were many conspiracies on part of Congress, which led to the fall of the coalition government.
