Udupi, Jun 6: Condemning the arrest of the accused in connection with the alleged murder of an elderly Muslim cattle trader in the district last week, saffron outfits led by Bharatiya Janata Party on Wednesday staged a protest in front of the DC’s office at Manipal, here.

Addressing the protesters, Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Sobha Karandlaje held H D Kumaraswamy-led coalition government responsible for the arrests and urged the police not to touch the saffron activists.

“If the Forensic Science Laboratory report confirms that Husainabba died of heart attack, then police cannot treat it as a murder case. Till they get the report, the police shouldn’t have arrested the ‘innocent’ gau rakshaks,” she said.

She went on to claim that the saffron activists never take law into their hands. “The cattle transporters themselves damaged the vehicle and put the blame on gau rakshaks,” she added.

Speaking on the occasion, K Raghupati Bhat, Udupi MLA, hit out at police for giving more importance to the death of a cattle transporter than the death of two cows.

“Two of the 13 cattle being transported by Husainabba and others were found dead. Many people were arrested for the death of Husainabba, but no one was arrested for the death of two cows,” he lamented.

He suggested that Husainabba death case should be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation, which is under the control of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led union government.

The police have arrested 10 persons in connection with the attack on cattle transporters near Perdoor in Udupi district that resulted in the death of Husainabba, a resident of Jokatte in Mangaluru. Among the arrested seven VHP-Bajrang Dal chauvinists and three others are their associates in the police department including a sub inspector.

62-year-old Husainabba was reportedly found dead under mysterious circumstances near Perdoor on May 30. During investigation it came to light that he died in police jeep after attack by Bajrang Dal chauvinists.

Very sad. What happening to our youths. Are they going crazy or the mountain fell on them? Why do our people are becoming so coward? I think many are going under depression. Govt should set up rehabilitation/counselling centres in each Mandals/Taluks/Districts to treat such people.

PFI, SDPI will be banned; party hopper MLAs who joined BJP will be awarded: K S Eshwarappa

News Network

January 19,2020

Mysuru, Jan 19: Karnataka Rural Development and Panchyat Raj Minister K S Eshwarappa on Sunday claimed that Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Party of India have been indulging in anti-national activities.

Talking to media persons here, he said the government is mulling to ban and take action against PFI and its political arm SDPI.

It was recommended even during the previous government, but it was not taken seriously, he added.

He said that the BJP will ensure that all the MLAs who were instrumental in the party coming to power (the then-disqualified MLAs who joined BJP from Congress and JDS recently and won the bypoll subsequently) will not be let down and be given suitable posts in the government.

DK Shivakumar or MB Patil likely to become Karnataka Congress chief

News Network

January 2,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 2: The Congress leadership in Delhi is expected to start the process of selecting a new party chief for Karnataka next week. There are strong indications the race has narrowed to DK Shivakumar and MB Patil.

Party insiders said the leadership almost finalised Shivakumar’s name as the president of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC), but the decision was put on hold after requests by some senior members.

“It’s not that we are against Shivakumar. We think the party should have a Lingayat at the helm since community strongman and chief minister BS Yediyurappa is at the fag end of his long political career. There’s an opportunity here for a Congressman to occupy that space,” said a senior Congress politician, who didn’t want to be named.

That’s where the candidacy of Patil, a Lingayat, scores high.

The party, however, doesn’t want to compromise on quality and wants an efficient KPCC president who can unite two rival factions within the party, one led by Siddaramaiah and another by former union minister KH Muniyappa.

The need to pick a new state president arose after Dinesh Gundurao resigned from the post last month, taking moral responsibility for Congress’s poor showing in the byelections. Siddaramaiah also stood down as Congress party legislature leader.

The insiders said the new KPCC chief could be announced after January 16. The party might also appoint two working presidents and a new legislature party leader, who will automatically become the opposition’s voice in the assembly.

For the latter position, the name of senior Dalit politician and former deputy chief minister G Parameshwara is doing the rounds. But the party, the sources said, could still ask Siddaramaiah to reconsider his decision and stay on.

Many Congress members had raised questions over his stewardship after the bypoll disappointment. They said on his watch, the party had also fared badly in the assembly and Lok Sabha elections, demanding that he be held accountable.

Siddaramaiah is expected to visit Delhi next week to discuss the leadership issue with party boss Sonia Gandhi. Some other senior Congress members, including BK Hariprasad, are also likely to meet her.
