Worship Hanuman, not Tipu Sultan: Yogi Adityanath’s message to Kannadigas

In an apparent attempt to divide society on communal lines ahead of 2018 Karnataka Assembly polls, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has accused Chief Minister Siddaramaiah of trying to convert Karnataka, “the land of Bajarang Bali”, into “a land of worshippers of Tipu Sultan”.

After inaugurating the BJP's district-level Parivartana Yatra convention at Nehru Stadium in Hubballi, Adityanath called upon the Kannadigas to bring a government that supports worship of Hanuman and not Tipu Sultan.

He not just lauded the 'development model' of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but also charged that the Congress government in the State is not at all interested in development, but is just dividing the society on caste and religion basis.

"When Lord Hanuman is being worshiped across the country, the Congress government in Karnataka, the State known for Vijayanagar Empire, is promoting worship of Tipu Sultan. The Congress is insulting our rich tradition. Siddaramaiah should have respected the feelings of the people, while making statements about beef consumption. With continuous murder and poor law and order situation, 'Rakshak' has become 'Bhakshak' here, and anarchy is prevailing," Adityanath observed.

He alleged that Congress leaders were trying to divide society on the lines of caste in Karnataka, like they did in Gujarat, and people should give them a befitting reply by rejecting them.

Adityanath then went on to accuse Mr. Siddaramaiah of “lowering the dignity of the Chief Minister’s post” by failing to respect public sentiment regarding eating beef.

Visits Mutt

Earlier in the day, Adityanath visited Moorusavira Mutt. After having the darshan of Gurusiddheshwar Gadduge, he met Moorusaviramutt pontiff Sri Gurusiddha Rajayogindra Swamiji.

When Yogi Adityanath arrived at the convention venue, the crowd there raised 'Yogi, Yogi' slogan. Elaborate security arrangements were made as he has Z Plus security cover.

Thousands of people attended the BJP convention, and some of them came in processions too, led by some BJP leaders. BJP banners, buntings and hoardings dotted the City.

After the event, traffic congestion was experienced at Chennamma Circle, Court Circle, Ambedkar Circke, Desai Cross, and other areas.

Many people had come with a curiosity about the announcement regarding Mahadayi dispute. Later, several Mahadayi agitator expressed discontent, saying that a mere letter from Goa CM would do nothing.

Dear Yogi, first be a true indian before preaching Kannadigas whom they have to respect and pray.  No need to tell us anything.  Your own state is in darkness and how come you will enlighten Karnataka.  Your state is number one in killing of Dalits/ minorities / girls etc etc.   You are spreading hate among the people.   You are not worth to be a CM.

Bengaluru, Mar 25: The COVID-19 count in Karnataka went up by 10 on Wednesday, reaching 51. The 10 new positives included two girls aged seven and nine who contracted the infection from their father.

The 34-year-old man had returned from Amsterdam on March 19 and tested positive as the 17th confirmed case in Karnataka.

Though his family were kept in isolation and under quarantine in their house, the children developed a cold. They were confirmed for COVID-19 infection while their mother is still negative.

The government remained tightlipped over whether or not a 70-year-old woman from Gouribidanuru who was put under house quarantine and died on Wednesday morning, tested positive for COVID-19. Government officials would neither confirm nor deny anything on the results of tests on the woman.

This evening’s bulletin issued by the Karnataka health department continued to indicate the strong correlation of coronavirus infection and foreign travel.

Among the positive cases identified today were

A 63-year-old Bengaluru man and his 59-year-old wife, with a history of travel to Brazil and Argentina.
Two 26-year-old men with a history of travel to Spain and arrived back in Bengaluru via Dubai.
Two others, a 63-year-old woman and her 69-year-old husband, had a history of travel to Athens and London.
A 34-year-old man, a resident of Udupi, who returned from Dubai
A 37-year old woman, a resident of Chitradurga, with a history of travel to Guyana and arrived back in Bengaluru via Delhi
Speaking to the media, medical education minister K Sudhakar said health officials were apprehensive the positives may go up tonight.

Of the corona positive cases detected in Karnataka so far, three have been discharged after quarantine, and 47 patients are in isolation at designated hospitals in a stable condition. There has been one fatality.

As per a recommendation by the high-level health committee, the government has decided to convert the Bowring Hospital into a coronavirus treatment hospital facility along with the Rajiv Gandhi Hospital for Chest Diseases and Victoria Hospital. 

“The number of positive cases are growing at an alarming rate and the government needs more treatment facilities. The government is for burning of COVID-19 death cases. However, due to some religious practices, it has been decided they would be buried in 8 ft deep pits,'' Dr Sudhakar said.
