Udupi, May 2: Bharatiya Janata Party had called chief minister an anti-Hindu for not paying a visit to Sri Krishna Temple during his recent Udupi to Udupi. Ironically, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who visited the town on May 1 too refused to visit the temple in spite of invitation.

Vidyadheesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Palimar Mutt has expressed his disappointment over PM Modi not visiting the historic temple.

“I had expectations that Prime Minister might come. I had invited both Mr Modi and Mr Siddaramaiah to visit the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple,” he said.

Meanwhile, Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Pejawar Mutt said that he too had written to Mr. Modi, inviting him to the temple.

In a press release issued here, the district unit of the Congress questioned why Mr. Modi did not visit the temple, especially when the BJP had made a big issue of Mr. Siddaramaiah not visiting it.

Bengaluru, Jun 23: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Tuesday demanded that Bengaluru should be put under lockdown for 20 days to contain the spread of coronavirus, the cases of which have risen sharply recently.

 “Stop playing with people's lives. There’s no use in sealing off only some areas. If the people of Bengaluru must live, then a lockdown of at least 20 days is needed. Otherwise, Bengaluru will become another Brazil,” Kumaraswamy said in a tweet. “People’s health is more important, not economy.”

The JD(S) leader was reacting to the BJP government's decision to impose an area-wide lockdown in Chickpet, KR Market, Kalasipalyam and Chamarajpet while streets will be sealed off in VV Puram, Siddapura, Yelahanka, Vidyaranyapura and Chickpet.

Bengaluru has witnessed a huge spike in its Covid-19 tally; the city currently has at least 919 active cases. This has sparked off fears that the contagion might have reached the community.

Kumaraswamy has also demanded welfare measures for the poor. “The poor and the labourers should be given ration immediately. The state’s 50 lakh working class should get ₹5,000 each. The aid already announced by the government hasn’t reached drivers, weavers, Madiwalas and other communities,” he said, adding that mere announcements of a package won’t be enough and “it has to be implemented.”
