Mysuru, Oct 1: Expressing confidence that he would get a second term, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has said that Congress party would face the upcoming Assembly elections in 2018 under his leadership.

Speaking to reporters, after offering puja to the Nandi Dhwaja at Balarama Gate of Mysuru Palace to mark the inauguration of the Dasara procession the CM said that he will perform puja to the Nandi Dhwaja in the next Dasara also.

“We have given good governance and the government has no black marks. The Congress party will face the upcoming Assembly elections in 2018, again under my leadership and I will continue to offer the puja for the next five years,” Siddaramaiah said.

The CM said, “Earlier, due to drought situation in parts of the state, the government had decided to conduct simple Dasara. But the festival was grand and significant as the state received good rain in recent days.

The CM earlier had said that the BJP is under an illusion that the BJP will get 150 seats in the ensuing Assembly elections. “BJP’s ‘Mission 150’ will be a failure as people still remember their administration as a nightmare,” he added.

Supporting BJP leader Yashwant Sinha’s statement that the country’s GDP will still decline, the CM said, “After demonetisation of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes in November, the GDP has declined by 2%. If the Union government fails to take measures to strengthen the GDP, it will come down by another 3.7%.”

August 2,2020

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government.

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited.

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

Palghar lynching: Arnab Goswami booked for promoting enmity, defamation

News Network

April 23,2020

Apr 23: An FIR has been registered in Nagpur against Republic TV channel's editor Arnab Goswami for promoting social disharmony and accusing Congress President Sonia Gandhi of orchestrating the Palghar lynching.

Three Mumbai residents, including two sadhus, who were on their way to Silvassa on April 16, were lynched by a mob in Gadakchinchale village of Palghar district on the suspicion that they were thieves. Nagpur Police Commissioner B K Upadhyaya said they received a complaint which was turned into an FIR at Sadar police station.

DCP Vinita Sahu said Goswami has been booked under sections 117 (abetting commission of offence by the public or by more than 10 persons), 120 (B) (criminal conspiracy), 153 (A) (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony), 153 (B) (imputations, assertions prejudicial to national-integration), 295 (A) (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs), 290-A (public nuisance in cases not otherwise provided for), 500 (defamation), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the ipc. Another FIR was filed against him in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.

In a statement condemning Goswami, Maharashtra Congress said the killing has been wrongly given a communal angle despite ample proof of the contrary. "At a time when country is fighting against coronavirus pandemic, it is very unfortunate that a section of media as well as politicians are trying to create social unrest... [and] spread racial and religious hatred in society. Goswami has tried to create misogyny against women in the society. He made an outrageous remark against the Congress president on a live TV programme. This is completely unethical journalism and we publicly protest it. We believe in brotherhood and cannot accept such animosity. This will be dangerous for the unity and integrity of the country (sic)," it said.
