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, Jul 28: Several state Congress leaders, including its President D K Shivakumar, among others, were detained by police as they tried to march towards Raj Bhavan here against the alleged attempts by BJP to topple the party's government in Rajasthan.

Shivakumar, along with Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah, state Congress Working President Eshwar Khandre, Salim Ahmed among others were stopped by the police midway as they marched from KPCC office towards Raj Bhavan.

Congress leaders then staged a dharna at the place where they were stopped. Addressing the gathering, Shivakumar accused the BJP of trying to "murder" democracy by destabilizing and removing elected governments.

"We wanted to protest against it and submit a memorandum to the President through the Governor," but the Karnataka government by using police was not letting them proceed towards Raj Bhavan, he said. "Despite our being a peaceful protest, the police stopped us," he said.

Siddaramaiah, echoing similar views, said peaceful protests against injustice was the right of every citizen. Alleging that the BJP was attempting to destabilise and remove the elected government in Rajasthan as it did in Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh, he said the Governor's office there (Rajasthan) was being 'misused'.

The Governor was working like an agent of the central government, he charged. He said, despite repeated appeals by the Rajasthan cabinet, the Governor there had not convened the assembly session, for the floor test to take place and for Congress to prove its majority. Police subsequently detained Shivakumar and some other Congress leaders and took them to a nearby police station.

They were later released. Meanwhile, as the Congress' protest amid Covid19 pandemic did not follow social distancing norms, Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar hit out at that party's leaders. In a tweet Sudhakar said, for Congress leaders getting publicity was more important than social concerns.
