Bengaluru, Oct 6: Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa, who is facing corruption charges, has accused the chief minister Siddaramaiah-led state government of misusing the Anti Corruption Bureau (ACB) to target those who speak against the ruling party.

Reacting to reports that the ACB was planning to raid the Income Tax department’s officials, Yeddyurappa said that the I-T sleuths need not worry as his party would bring the matter to the Centre’s notice. He described the ACB as “Siddaramaiah protection bureau”.

Siddaramaiah’s Cabinet colleagues, however, maintained that the ACB has not been misused.

Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy said that the Centre was misusing the I-T department, Enforcement Directorate and the CBI, and not the state government. He said that the government has never interfered in the ACB’s functioning.

Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister T B Jayachandra also said the ACB is functioning well within its jurisdiction.

Bengaluru, Mar 19: As a precautionary measure to prevent the spread of coronavirus, the Karnataka State Board of Auqaf has issued an advisory to mosques, dargahs and other religious institutions, requesting them to conclude the Friday congregation in 15 minutes for the next three weeks.

"Respected head of masjids and imams (prayer leader) are requested to conclude the entire Juma congregation (including Juma khutbah, salah and dua) in 15 minutes for the next three weeks and avoid using the public mic for the khutbah and salah," read a statement from the Karnataka State Board of Auqaf.

It has advised to ensure cleanliness and good hygiene inside mosques and keep the carpets, prayer mats, floor mats etc clean.

Further, it stated that those coming for daily prayers should be instructed to perform wudhu (ablution) at their homes and avoid using prayer caps placed in masjids.

"Please remove the public towels and prayer caps from the masjids. Sunnah and nafil prayers should observed at home," the advisory read.

The advisory came as the number of coronavirus patients spiralled across the country. The governments are taking all precautionary measures to contain the spread of the virus that has claimed more than 7,500 lives across the globe since its outbreak in China in December last year.

Doesn't this reflect upon our stupidity. They have lost the whole point of virus spread. Let's pray as per our so called Muslim religious leaders IQ level that the virus does not spread among the hundreds in that 15 minutes.This is exactly why we are losing it.
