Udupi, March 14: Former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Uma Bharathi has announced join Pejawar Mutt pontiff Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji in his agitation against the ill effects of coal based power plant promoted by Udupi Power Corporation Limited (formerly Nagarjuna).

Speaking to press persons here on Monday, during her visit to Sri Krishna Temple, here, the firebrand leader Uma said that Pejawar Swamiji had explained her of ill effects of the coal based plant, causing environmental and health hazards and she was convinced by his words. She would be visiting the site on Tuesday along with Pejawar Swamiji, who would be returning from Hyderabad on Tuesday. She would hear the grievances of the people living around the project site.

“I had always fought for the cause of Karnataka. I had even lost the post of the Chief Minister for my agitation to hoist the 'Thiranga' in Idgah Maidan, Hubli. The protest against the Nagarjuna project would be as severe as that,” she said.

Replying a question that both BJP and its government were for the Nagarjuna project, Uma Bharathi said, “for me my Guru's words are final. Whether or not BJP supports the project or not is immaterial for me. There is no question of compromise in that matter.”

Replying another question Uma said that whatever may be the Supreme Court virdict entire Ayodhya belonged to Hindus and there was no question of parting with one third of Ayodhya land to Muslims.

Asked whether she would join BJP in the near future, “you better ask that to Gadkari,” she replied.

Udupi, Jun 5: Senior BJP leader and Lok Sabha member Shobha Karandlje accused members of Tablighi Jamaat of spreading Coronavirus, particularly in slums, in Bengaluru.

Speaking to newsmen here Friday night, she said that the members had intentionally spread the virus in Siddique Layout and Padarayanapura. Members had hatched a conspiracy to destroy the country. She would raise the issue with the central government.

She said that New Delhi and Maharashtra were responsible for rising Covid-19 cases in the country. Highlighting the programmes, introduced by Modi-led NDA government for the past six years, she blamed Covid-19 for the collapse of the economy. But for Covid-19 Modi government at the Centre would have been a leader in the world,” she added.

She said 13,541 people, stranded in other States and foreign countries, had returned to Udupi. “We have sufficient beds in the district to tackle the situation. But if more people decide to travel to Udupi, arranging quarantine facilities would be a huge challenge,” she added.

News Network

January 18,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 18: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday called Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the "flag-bearer" of the Indian culture and tradition.

In his speech at an event organised by Vedanta Bharati here, Shah said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi is touring across the globe as the flag bearer of the Indian culture and tradition." To buttress his point, the BJP National President said Modi took a holy dip in Ganga and attended Ganga Arati in Varanasi before taking oath as the Prime Minister.

It was for the first time that Modi sent red sander to Pashupatinath Temple in Nepal to perform special prayers on behalf of the government of India.

Shah also slammed the previous governments for their wrong interpretation of secularism, preventing them from honouring the best things of the country. "But after a long interval we have a Prime Minister who sends across the message that we have a lot to give to the world," Shah said.
