Bengaluru, Dec 9: Expressing frustration over the rude behaviour and provocative statements of leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party, Karnataka Home Minister R Ramalinga Reddy has compared the saffron party to Islamic State, an anti-Islamic outfit which carries out terror attacks in the name of Islam.

Reddy, a Congress leader, was speaking to the media when he made this remark on Thursday. "BJP is like the IS terror group and its head is Amit Shah. They are spreading terror in the state,” he said.

“There are enough videos in the media to prove my point. They (BJP leaders) do not understand the law and are always trying to create disturbances in the state," he added.

Mr Reddy also clarified that the entire party was not like the IS but a few leaders such as Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha and Union minister Anant Kumar Hegde behaved so.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: The National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), which met with officials of the Social Welfare Department Thursday, has urged the state government to increase the reservation provided to the ST community.

The Commission's suggestion comes even as a committee headed by Justice Nagamohan Das is currently studying a demand for increase of reservation for the community from the existing 3% to 7.5%.

Addressing mediapersons on Thursday, Commission Chairperson Nand Kumar Sai, said the Commission had discussed the issue with the Social Welfare Department, Karnataka, asking officials to expedite the process.

In response to this suggestion, Social Welfare Department Principal Secretary G Kumar Naik said the government would take a call based on the Nagamohan Das Committee's report.

A meeting was held between members of the National ST Commission and the Social Welfare Department Thursday with regard to various projects taken up by the department.

In June last year, the then Kumaraswamy-led coalition government constituted the Justice Nagamohan Das Committee, after protests from members of the Valmiki community for an increase in reservation to 7.5%. At present, Karnataka provides 15% reservation for SCs, 3% for STs and 32% for other backward classes (OBC).

The national commission also urged the state government to ensure permanent faculty in all the 824 residential institutions run by the department. At present, as much as 50% of the faculty in these institutions have been hired on a contractual basis. "We have assured that the recruitment will be done in a short time," Naik told mediapersons.
