Hubballi, Oct 25: Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has predicted that BJP State president B S Yeddyurappa will become Chief Minister soon after the byelections two assembly seats and three Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka. 

Addressing presspersons at Honnur village of Jamkhandi taluk, where she was campaigning for the party's candidate, Srikant Kulkarni, on Wednesday, Karandlaje claimed that several Congress legislators were in touch with the BJP. 

“Many Congress legislators will resign from the party to join the BJP after the bypoll results were declared on November 6,” she said. 

Meanwhile, former minister and BJP Mudhol MLA, Govind Karjol took strong objection to Deputy Chief Minister, G Parameshwar telling the people of Savalagi village in Jamkhandi taluk that they would get the promised road between Savalagi and Jamkhandi within three months if they voted for the Congress. Calling the statement a violation of the model code of conduct, he said the BJP would file a complaint on it before the Election Commission. 

Ridiculing JD(S) Supremo,  H D Deve Gowda for backing Congress president, Rahul Gandhi for the post of Prime Minister in 2019, Mr Karjol  said when Congress leaders themselves were dividedon the issue, it was strange that Gowda was backing him.

The BJP leader was referring to the statement of former Union Minister, P Chidambaram that Mr Gandhi was not the party’s Prime Ministerial candidate. “The Congress will be divided in 2019 before the Lok Sabha poll and  Narendra Modi will become PM again,” he asserted.

Mangaluru, Jun 2: Even as the mosques in Karnataka recieved green signal from state government to reopen for congregational prayers from June 8, a senior Islamic scholar in coastal Karnataka has encouraged Muslims to prefer to offer prayers at homes during covid times. 

Twaqa Ahmed Al-Azhari, the Qadhi of Mangaluru, has welcomed the state government's decision to allow Muslims to offer congregational prayers including Jum'a prayers with certain precautions and conditions.

"Government has upheld our religions sentiments. All the mosques where congregational prayers will be held from June 8 should strictly follow all the guidelines issued by the government," he said. 

He also suggested that if any mosque is not in a position to follow all the guidelines issued by the government then it should refrain from holding congregational prayers. "Muslims can continue offer Fard and Jumá prayers at homes as the cornavirus pandemic is still spreading in the region and across the world," he said.

Bengaluru,  Jul 9: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said that he was opposed to a tie-up with Janata Dal-Secular in the last Lok Sabha elections but the party high command did not listen to him.

"I had suggested that we should fight alone (in Lok Sabha elections) because JD-S votes would not have come to us and our votes would not have gone to JD-S," Siddaramaiah told reporters here.

Congress leader said that he was the only one to make the suggestion and he did not get support.

"I was the only one to raise a voice that's why it was not heard by (party) high command and I did not get support. We might have won over seven seats in parliament election if we had fought alone," he said.

After forming government in Karnataka in 2018 with support of JD-S, Congress had fought the 2019 general election in a pre-poll alliance with the party. Congress could only one seat of the 21 it contested and JD-S also won one seat of the seven it contested.
