Kannada activist and Vatal Paksha leader Vatal Nagaraj has announced that Kannada organisations, along with Dalit and farmers’ organisations with a regional perspective, would form Karnataka Praja Samyukta Ranga and field candidates in the Assembly elections.

He said he would hold discussions shortly with farmers’ and Dalit organisations who have concern and commitment for the development of Kannada language and Karnataka, on contesting on a single election manifesto highlighting the State’s issues.

After launching a website of the paksha on Saturday, Mr. Nagaraj said Karnataka and Kannadigas do not get justice from the national political parties.

Mr. Nagaraj, who was an MLA for five terms, said there was poor representation in the Legislative Assembly, the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha of people who could raise their voice for the cause of Kannada.

Bengaluru, Mar 5: Karnataka chief minister BS Yediyurappa on Wednesday admitted in the legislative assembly that corruption was deep-rooted in government offices and held transfer racket as the root cause of the graft menace.

“Unless we root it out from the system, we can never uphold the spirit of the Constitution and ensure equitable justice to people. If legislators lend support (to this cause), then we can weed out this menace,” Yediyurappa said during a special discussion on the Constitution.

Successive governments have been accused by opposition parties of running a transfer racket, but there’s very little done to institute a probe or order a crackdown following the allegations.

The chief minister’s candid admission came after senior Congress MLA HK Patil, quoting a report from Amnesty International, said 63% of people in Karnataka give bribe to get their work done in government offices. The CM said he agreed with the report in toto.
