Bagalkot, Apr 4: BJP national president Amit Shah has said that the party won't allow splitting of a religion.

"It is not right to divide a religion, tradition. The BJP does not believe in such practices and neither the party has any intention to use this issue for political gain," Shah said here on Tuesday.

He was speaking at a meeting of the Bharatiya Veerashiava Mathadheeshara Parishat ath Shivayoga Mandira.Shah further added that he had not come to the meeting with political objectives but only to seek blessings.

Channasiddarama Panditaradhya Shivacharya Swami of Sree Shaila Peeta said that the attempt to divide Veerashaiva-Lingayat religion had now reached the Centre.

The seer added that the pontiffs had planned to meet Amit Shah and the prime minister Narendra Modi in the regard.

In Hubballi, Shah said the BJP is not against reservation and the party would protect the interest of the oppressed classes.

Shah, who spoke to reporters, said that the BJP would never withdraw the reservation facility nor would allow any other party to do so.

Opposition parties are spreading rumours on social media reservation facility would be withdrawn. This just politics. Monday's Bharat bandh in connection with the Atorocities Act was also unnecessary.

"We have utmost faith in the Constitution given to us by Dr B R Ambedkar," he said.

Bengaluru, Jun 19: The Karnataka government has been advised by its Educational Advisor to cancel holidays observed in educational institutions on the occasion of various Jayantis (birth annivesaries).

Advisor to Karnataka government on Education, Professor MR Doreswamy, has recommended cancellation of holidays on Jayanti and celebrate the day with more meaningful programmes remembering the great personalities.

The state government has declared public holidays on Valmiki Jayanti, Basava Jayanti, Kanaka Jayanti, Mahavir Jayanti, Ambedkar Jayanti and Gandhi Jayanti.

On Thursday, Doreswamy submitted a report containing seven key suggestions including cancelling holidays, to Deputy Chief Minister CN Aswath Narayan, who holds higher education portfolio.

Doreswamy in his report suggested to hold thematic workshops, lectures, conferences and other such activities to celebrate the life and works of the great personalities, instead of declaring holidays.

"It would not only educate our youth about the significance of the great personalities to our culture and society and also reinvents the tradition of paying tributes to their contributions to our civil society,'' he said.

Dr Narayan said that the decision on cancelling holidays on Jayanti's has to be taken by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa.

Moreover, to bring education back on track during the present COVID-19 pandemic situation, Doreswamy made a few suggestions to complete exams of final semester engineering and graduate students. He also said that it was a challenge for the education sector to overcome the pandemic crisis and structure the next academic year 2021-22.

He also advised implementation of a mentoring system in all higher education institutions in Karnataka and empowering specially-abled students.

Bengaluru, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.
