Udupi/Karwar, May 8: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday campaigned for May 12 Karnataka assembly polls in Udupi and Uttara Kannada districts.
Addressing a BJP rally at Maravanthe in Udupi district, Yogi accused the chief minister Siddaramaiah led Congress government of destroying Karnataka.
Reacting to the comment of Siddaramaiah over his frequent visit to Karnataka at a time when dozens killed in Uttar Pradesh due to dust storm, Yogi said that the pathetic plight of farmers, fishermen and youth in the south Indian state had prompted him visit Karnataka time and again.
Addressing an election rally in Kumta, Yogi invoked "ancient relations" between Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh. "Karnataka and Uttara Pradesh have close relations. While Rama took birth in Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka is the birthplace of Hanuman. Bhyraveshwara of Kashi is Kalabhyraveshwara in Adichunchanagiri. And now you have BJP government in Uttar Pradesh and hence Karnataka too should be governed by the same party," he said.
Yogi said that the schemes of the Modi government could reach people if the government of the same party is brought to power in Karnataka also.
Addressing an election meet in Murdeshwar, Bhatkal taluk, Yogi alleged that the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government had got killed many Hindu activists by entering into a secret pact with jihadi elements.
He said that terrorists were holed up across the country including Bhatkal. The Murdeshwara temple visited by thousands of devotees every day faces threat from ultras. "We have to wipe off the blot on Bhatkal and to do so voters should teach a befitting lesson to jihadis and anti-nationals in this election," he added.
Earlier, the UP chief minister performed Rudrabhisheka at the Murdeshwara temple.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
