Bengaluru, Oct 13: Lok Sabha member and BJP Karnataka General Secretary Shobha Kharandlje today questioned on who gave the authority to AICC President Rahul Gandhi to discuss the Rafale deal issue with former HAL employees.

Terming Mr Rahul Gandhi's visit is only for publicity sake, Ms Shobha Kharandlje alleged that "Congress allegations on Rafale deal is far from truth and Mr Gandhi has indulged in false propoganda against Rafale deal and Prime Minister Narendra Modi was targeted for publicity sake."

Addressing a press conference here, she said that "the Minix square is banned for any political activity but I don't know how permission was given in that place."

Ms Shobha Kharandlje alleged that when UPA government headed by Congress was in power at the Centre many Public Sector units including HMT have been closed. "Despite the Rafale deal was most transparent it has been beemed as most corrupt deal without any basis."

"HAL officials and Military heads have given clean chit to the deal but it was Congress which is levelling allegations for political advantage," she added.

Referring to BSP Rpt BSP MLA N Mahesh tendering resignation to Minister post in Karnataka, Ms Shobha Kharandlje alleged that "it is the end of Congress and the Ghatbandhan which began in Karnataka will also end here only".

Bengaluru, May 31: In spite of opposition, chief minister BS Yediyurappa has appointed his former personal assistant and maternal grandnephew NR Santosh as his political secretary.

Santosh is the fourth political secretary to the CM besides SR Vishwanath, MP Renukacharya and Shankaranna Munavalli. 

Santosh was arrested for allegedly trying to kidnap Vinay NS, personal assistant of BJP leader KS Eshwarappa in 2017. He's also facing attempt to murder and dowry harassment charges.

The 30-year-old had fallen out with the CM's younger son BY Vijayendra soon after the BJP came to power and had been reportedly asked to keep away from him. He had identified with some MLAs who were up against the CM.

It's said the appointment was made to send out a message to the rivals after some MLAs launched a renewed campaign against Yediyurappa over a dinner meeting at BJP MLA Umesh V Katti's house. 

Though Yediyurappa was not keen, sources said Santosh brought pressure from RSS and some BJP leaders, whose help he had sought to reunite with the family. 

Santosh from Tumakuru is the son of the CM's sister's daughter. He was Yediyurappa's Man Friday and his job was confined to ensuring he took his medicines on time.
