This looks majority of people have voted based on caste/sects. muslim candidates won in muslim majority area even candiadates are not deserved and similarly in other relegion dominated areas too. this needs to be eradicated and elect the honest people who really works for betterment of society in all fileds.
I assume this result definatly not based on the performance of the previous tenure or state/central government performance.
every voters are the decision makers for future India.

This results shows the way to Sorake to resign from his current ministry. Oscar fernandes to be dethroned from Congress central hicommand. Mr. Promod must come out of Sorake/Oscar combine and work independently. We know he is a loyal worker of the party. But as long as the two opportunists are in the party, congress popularity will decline to Zero. This is a ringing bell to all congress great and mini leaders of Udupi District.

SORAKEGE PORAKE

GOOD LESSON FOR SORAKE.... IF U DONT GIVE TICKET FOR MUSLIMS U WILL NEVER GET MUSLIM VOTE.

MUSLIM VOTERS ARE THE DECISION MAKERS

tight slap on the face of Sorake

THANKS FOR SUPPORTING BJP..... SPECIALLY SDPI AND OTHER CongRSS leaders...

BJP must appreciate Congress (Oscar,Sorake,Ramanath Rai ) for retain Both districts

JP Effect in Udupi Dist

In the two coastal districts, Bjp wil have the upper hand.......that is seen in every day life......

This is really same for us all congressmen, people are not voting for true face, BJP s worst ruling in india.,

congress did so much kithapathi still BJP won, this is the truth of True leadership.

BJP won, so exited will celebrate in bengaluru,

its total cheating vote counted, BJP government can do whatever they want until they are in power.

Congress take up JNU Student to defeat ZP election, but congress itself bites the dust.

BJP Jai Ho, Expected result.

‘Love Jihad’ doesn’t exist, admits Home Ministry of India

News Network

February 4,2020

New Delhi: The Ministry of Home Affairs of Government of India today clarified to the Lok Sabha in a written reply that the so called “Love Jihad” is not defined under the extant laws and no such cases have been reported by any central agency.

It was ministry’s formal response to questions about whether the central government is aware of the observation of Kerala High Court that there is no case of Love Jihad in Kerala.

“The term ‘Love Jihad’ is not defined under the extant laws. No such case of ‘Love Jihad’ has been reported by any of the central agencies. However, two cases from Kerala involving interfaith marriages have been investigated by the NIA,” said the reply.

Communal and anti-Muslim political outfits backed by a section of media often use the term “Love Jihad” to accuse Muslims of marrying Hindu and Christian girls and then forcing them to change religion. Dr Hadiya’s conversion was also termed ‘love jihad’ by the BJP and media. The Supreme Court finally ruled that it wasn’t.

In January 2020, an influential Catholic Church in Kerala had said that “love jihad is a reality” and alleged that scores of women from Christian community from the southern state were being lured into the trap of Islamic State and used in terror activities.

The Viswa Hindu Parishad (VHP) had welcomed the Church statement and called for a united fight against ‘Love Jihad’ in Kerala Society.

The response comes weeks after the MHA, responding to an RTI query, said it has "no information" concerning the 'Tukde Tukde Gang' -- a term that has been used a number of times by PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah to attack opponents.

The RTI application was filed by activist Saket Gokhle on December 26 last year. In his RTI application, Saket Gokhle said Home Minister "Amit Shah addressed a public event in New Delhi, and in his address said, 'The Tukde Tukde Gang of Delhi needs to be taught a lesson and punished'." Gokhle's RTI asked for details of the 'Tukde Tukde Gang'.

The home ministry, in its reply to Saket Gokhle's RTI application, said, "Ministry of Home Affairs has no information concerning tukde-tukde gang."
