Mangalore, February 13: Supporters of the former minister and Mangalore north MLA Krishna J. Palemar rallied behind the beleaguered leader, who relinquished his ministerial position following his alleged involvement in porngate.

At a meeting held in the central maidan of Suratkal under the banner of “Krishna Palemar Abhimanigala Sangha” speakers after speakers defended the former Minister and insisted that he was innocent.

Mayor Praveen, former mayors Shankar Bhat, Ganesh Hosabettu, Rajani Dugganna, corporators Tilak Raj, Sumitra Madhukiran, Santhosh, Sharath, Bhaskar Chandra Shetty, Surekha, Shakuntala, Mahabala Poojary, Aziz Baikampady, businessman P.M.A Razak, Vishwanath Shetty were the prominent participants.

Corporators Revathi, Yasavantha Meenakaliya, Shanta R. Suratkal block BJP president Sharatchandra Shetty and Satyajit Suratkal were conspicuously absent.

Palemar has contributed immensely for the development of the district. The allegations leveled against him of watching a blue film inside the Assembly is completely baseless. He has come up in life the hard way. He responded to the problems of the disadvantaged sections of the society. He will come clean of all the allegations on February 13, the speakers said.

Earlier, speaking at a press meet at Suraj Hotel, Shankar Bhat claimed that Mr. Palemar was not tech savvy and did not know how to operate mobile phone. Even when we call him, it is his secretary who attends the call. We were in Gujrat when the scandal broke and initially his name did not figure in the scandal. But his name was dragged due to political pressure, Mr. Bhat said.

However, he did not give a proper answer when asked about their strategy in the event of Mr. Palemar being disqualified from the Assembly. He also answered in the negative when asked if the corporators would put in their papers to express their moral support to the beleaguered leader.

Karnataka BJP urges Modi govt to ban PFI, SDPI

News Network

January 29,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 29: The Karnataka unit of BJP has urged the Centre and the State governments to ban the Popular Front of India (PFI) and the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), accusing them of harbouring terrorist tendencies.

Addressing a press meet, N Ravi Kumar, state general secretary of the party, alleged that there was a nexus between the Congress, the PFI and the SDPI.

“Recent reports have exposed the links between the PFI and the Congress,” he said, accusing Congress leader Kapil Sibal of receiving huge funds from PFI to defend their cases in the Supreme Court.

He also accused the organisations as the ones responsible for the death of 23 Hindu activists in Karnataka. Such incidents have proven that both SDPI and PFI are dubious organisations, he said.

Comments

PFI is the first kind of organization which is doing community work in all the walks of life.

and providing the helping hands to all the Indian community doing marvelous job.

this is the first organization fighting against corrupt and injustice following the principle of our father of nation mahatma Gandhi’s.

the corrupt and injustice people in the society not ready to accept their policy and trying to stop the voices of justice to the society.

I wish PFI and its sub organizations will continue to support to the society and keep the good work so that people are with you.

Wah what a joke.

RSS is blamming others as terrorists.

Constitutionof RSS is a terrorism. Stupid Hegevar and Savarkar are the heroes of illiterate stupid community.

The whole intelligent community including European Uniion and US openly declared.

This is the sure end and downfall of RSS, which will never come-up again. You woke-up of peace lovers.

Thank you.

You people are never fit to run even a small village and how come thinking of ruling a big country.

RSS is the most active and first ever terrorist organisation in India and it should be banned first. There is no proof of terrorist activities by SDPI and PFI. BJP is afraid of these organisations as they give tought resistance to BJP and this is the reason why its planning to ban these organisations. BJP is doing propoganda only. Real thread for peace + harmoney in India by sanghis. We should ban them first.
