Bengaluru, Jul 26: The new BJP government in Karnataka will seek a vote of confidence on July 29 in the state Assembly for which a session is being convened.

Addressing a press conference after first Cabinet meeting after taking oath as Chief Minister, BS Yeddyurappa said the passage of the finance bill would also be taken up after the confidence vote on Monday since salaries have to be withdrawn on July 30.

"I will prove the majority and get the finance bill passed on Monday," he said. 

He also announced that the first decision of the Cabinet was to provide two instalments of Rs 2000 each to farmers in addition to the PM Kisan Samman Yojna under which Rs 6000 will be given to farmers in a year in three instalments.

The new Chief Minister also said that a farm loan waiver scheme will be announced because the situation with regard to farmers is very bad in the state.

"Within three to six months you will see the imprints of how the government is development-oriented," said Yeddyurappa.

"We will take a relook at all the programs initiated by the previous government. Governance has taken back seat in the last 14 months we have to revive the official machinery which has become insensitive to deal with problem and grievances of people," he said.

Kasaragod, Mar 21: The lack of self-restraint and social distancing by people here, the ones who come from the Middle East regions, in particular, has been a cause of concern for the district authorities who have time and again been reiterating the need to follow tips from health authorities to counter the spread of Novel Coronavirus.

But as things are feared to go out of control, the district authorities including the Collector Dr. Sajith Babu have come out to the streets and bazaars only to impose social distancing instructions now in place in the district strictly since six more persons have been tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday.

According to health authorities, the new cases were caused by a few people who recently returned from abroad and who did not follow the self-quarantine measures.
