Mangalore, January 6: Mangalore MLA U.T. Khader has demanded deportation of six Sri Rama Sene activists who have been arrested in connection with the hoisting of Pakistani flag in Sindhagi last week.

In a press release issued on Thursday, Mr. Khader said, organisations like Rama Sene were on the one hand preaching lessons on patriotism and on the other carrying out anti-national activities.

“The government should deport these men to Pakistan. Let them enjoy their stay in that country by hoisting their national flag,” he ridiculed.

Organisations like Rama Sene have indulged in such activities all over the State. They might also have played a role in the recent untoward incidents that occurred around Ullal area, Mr. Khader said.

Meanwhile a number of organisations have condemned Rama Sene activists' efforts to divide the society by hoisting Pakistan flag.

“It is a shameful act,” said Mohammed Salim, secretary of New Age India Forum, in a press release.

Popular Front of India (PFI) has also condemned the incident and demanded stringent punishment to the offenders.

Muslim Varthakara Sangha has also demanded severe action against the arrested Sri Rama Sene activists.

Bengaluru, Jan 31: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Friday got the green signal from the BJP central leadership for the much-awaited cabinet expansion in the state and he is mostly likely to induct 11 ministers. Yediyurappa said the date of swearing-in will be decided in a day or two, although he indicated that it would most likely be held on February 3.

Currently, there are 18 ministers, including the chief minister, in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant. "Many of our suggestions have been accepted by Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP national president J P Nadda. If there are differences, we will discuss in Bengaluru and finalise it," Yediyurappa told reporters after meeting Shah in the Parliament Complex here.

Except for one or two, most of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, he said, adding there won't be any additional deputy chief ministers. However, sources said, a total of 11 ministers would be inducted into the cabinet.

"We discussed yesterday and now also. Shah has agreed to almost everything," Yediyurappa said, adding he is returning back "happy" after getting the nod for the cabinet expansion. "I am going happy," he said.

Yediyurappa had been anxiously waiting for the party high command's approval to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants. Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in the cabinet expansion, alleging he was weak and that his administration had collapsed.
