Yeddyurappa out at CM over quota promise

Bengaluru, Oct 8: BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa on Saturday accused Chief Minister Siddaramaiah of trying to mislead SCs, STs, and other backward classes on increasing reservation in employment and education to 70% ahead of the Assembly election.

Addressing the executive committee meeting of BJP OBC wing, he said the fact that the chief minister has promised to increase the reservation a few months before the election proves that he is not serious about it. He should have done it soon after coming to power if he had any concern for these communities, he added.

Siddaramaiah has been making a lot of promises to people with an eye on the elections. None of the government schemes has been implemented properly. The only achievement of the government in the last four years is looting the state exchequer and corruption, he charged.

Shivamogga, Jul 24: The protest by Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) under the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) entered its 14th day on Friday demanding personal protective equipment (PPE) kits and a salary of at least Rs 12,000 per month.

They have been protesting in different parts of Karnataka since July 10.

Staging a protest in front of the deputy commissioner's office, the ASHA workers complained of the government turning a deaf ear to their problems.

Clad in their signature pink saris, they raised slogans to demand appropriate salary for their work and the necessary equipment to protect them from the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. 

They said that they worked tirelessly during the COVID-19-induced lockdown without any safety. The department only provided them with sub-standard equipment to combat the deadly virus. All they were asking for is a basic pay of Rs 12,000 against the current pay of Rs 6,000.

Prema, an ASHA said, "The authorities are praising our work, clapping for us and showering flowers on us but are not listening to our grievances."
