Ticket denial: Sathyajith Surathkal hits out at MP Kateel, RSS leader Prakash

Mangaluru, Apr 23: Hardline Hindutva leader Sathyajith Surathkal has publicly slammed Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and RSS Prantha Pramukh P S Prakash for allegedly preventing the party high command from issuing him the ticket.

Sathyajith, who is also BJP Backward Classes Morcha State Secretary, was the party ticket aspirant from Mangaluru City North constituency apart from former minister Krishna J Palemar. However, in a surprise move the party has issued B Form to young candidate Dr Bharath Shetty.

Speaking at a meeting of his supporters at Hosabettu in Surathkal on Sunday, he said, “Mr Kateel and Mr Prakash are also responsible for the denial of ticket to me. I have been working for the Sangha for the last 35 years. My followers are pressurising me to contest as an independent candidate.”

He gave an ultimatum to the party high command to change their decision, saying he would wait till 10 am on April 23. “After 10 am on Monday, I will decide my future course of action.”

He sought the reason for denial of ticket and said: “I do not believe the statement that party tickets have been issued based on a survey. I do not believe that the decision to finalise the ticket was taken by BJP National President.”

“I had worked hard for the victory of Mr Kateel during the last Lok Sabha election. It was the party workers who nurtured me,” he said.

Mangaluru, May 6: The Karnataka NRI Forum - UAE has collected the details of those seeking to return to Karnataka amidst coronavirus lockdown.

Of these, 121 of these expats are pregnant women, 27 are senior citizens, 157 are in urgent medical need, 522 are unemployed, 377 are in the UAE on visit visa, 109 are in the UAE on expired residency visa, 30 are students and 566 others.

On Tuesday, May 5, the Government of India released a list of flight schedules for the repatriation of Indians who are stranded abroad. "...sadly we do not see any flights going from UAE to Karnataka," the KNRI said in a letter to Union Minister of Chemicals and Fertilizers D V Sadananda Gowda, who is also a Kannadiga.

"We, Dubai Anivasi Kannadigaru and KNRI have collected the information of those who are in dire condition and would like to travel immediately. We would like to bring to your attention that in this list there are pregnant women and senior citizens who are in critical conditions and are waiting to travel," the KNRI wrote, urging the Union Minister to start at least one flight to Mangaluru as the majority are from this coastal city and not from Bengaluru.

Additionally, in order to help these struggling Kannadigas, the KNRI has notified the Government of India and Government of Karnataka several times through letters and conference calls, along with the Kannadiga's helpline, UAE.

With the help of likeminded businessmen and professionals, the KNRI Forum and Dubai Anivasi Kannadigaru have opened a helpline called "Kannadigas Helpline" through which they have received around 2,500 requests for food, medical, legal and other assistance.

Mangaluru, Feb 13: After pro-Kannada outfits called for a state-wide bandh today, the police are on high-alert to avoid any untoward incidents.

The dawn to dusk bandh was called demanding implementation of Sarojini Mahishi report which recommended certain percentage of jobs to Kannadigas in private & public sector companies.

There is no official holiday declared for schools and colleges. Besides, all government institutions and private establishments are open.

But, in some parts of Karnataka, autorickshaws and taxis, including Ola and Uber stayed off the roads.

Even though the bandh is unlikely to hit normal life in coastal Karnataka, stones were pelted on a Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet.
