Karnataka: Angry mob attacks ex-CM Yediyurappa’s house in Shivamogga

[ad_1]
Former Karnataka chief minister and senior BJP leader B S Yediyurappa’s house has been attacked by an angry mob in Shivamogga district on Monday.
According to reports, a large number of protestors belonging to the Banjara community are not happy with the state government’s recent decision to provide internal reservations in Schedule Caste/Scheduled Tribe (SC/ST) community.
The decision was made on March 24 where a 6% internal quota for SC (Left), 5.5% for SC (Right), 4.5% for SC (touchable that includes the Banjara community) and 1% for others was recommended.
Many in the Banjara community feel that the decision would take away their SC status and hence demanded that the state government withdraw the decision with immediate effect.

‘Against Hindu culture’: Bajrang Dal stops late-night ladies’ party in Shivamogga

[ad_1]
Bajrang Dal workers allegedly stopped a late-night ladies’ party at a hotel on Kuvempu Road on Friday evening in an act of moral policing.
The police were called to the scene to prevent any ‘untoward incidents’. After the workers objected to the party, those inside the hotel, including women, men, and a few children, came out.
“We informed the police a week ago that a ladies’ night party would be held,” Bajrang Dal leader Rajesh Gowda said, speaking to media. “Such gatherings should not be held in the Malnad region. We went with the cops and put an end to the party,” he added.
He claimed that women participating in such events is against ‘Hindu culture.’ “The Bajrang Dal would not tolerate such events in Shivamogga,” he said, objecting to the women’s attire at the party, among other things.

PM to inaugurate Shivamogga airport in Karnataka today

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Shivamogga airport in poll-bound Karnataka on Monday.
He will also hold a 10 kilometre road show in Belagavi city.
All eyes in Karnataka are on the Shivamogga event, as former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa hails from the district and he had announced retirement from electoral politics last week.
Yediyurappa is looking forward to allotment of tickets to his son B.Y. Vijayendra from Shikaripura constituency, which he represented throughout his career.
PM Modi had appreciated Yediyurappa’s farewell speech and stated that it inspired him as well. Yediyurappa had also announced that the Lingayat community should not have hard feelings about his retirement and continue to support the BJP.
He is likely to give a message in terms of Yediyurappa’s concerns on accommodating his son Vijayendra in the party.
The Prime Minister, who is expected to arrive in Shivamogga at 11.35 a.m, is scheduled to address a public rally after inaugurating the airport.
Seating arrangements for 1 lakh people have been made.

People are being roped in from Chikkamagaluru, Davanagere, Chitradurga districts in more than 1,500 buses. Shivamogga airport has the second longest runway in the state.
PM Modi will arrive in Belagavi by 2 p.m. and launch a 10.7 kilometer roadshow from Rani Chennamma circle. Leaders of various communities are allowed to welcome him on the way.
Arrangements have been made to shower flower petals on him at Dharmaveer Sambhaji circle, Ashoka circle, Tilak circle. More than 4,500 police personnel have been deputed to ensure security.
He will lay the foundation stone, inaugurate and dedicate various projects worth Rs 2,250 crore.

PM Modi to inaugurate Shivamogga airport in Karnataka on Feb 27

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate Shivamogga airport — the dream project of former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP Central Committee Member, B.S. Yediyurappa on February 27.
The supporters of the Lingayat strongman are looking forward to the programme as it was perceived at some point that Yediyurappa was snubbed by the party.
Yediyurappa hails from Shivamogga and is looking forward to an appropriate position in the party for his son B.Y. Vijayendra.
Sources in the BJP said the Cabinet expansion was shelved as Yediyurappa was expecting a Cabinet berth for his son. The party had also snubbed him by denying a ticket for Vijayendra to contest MLC elections earlier.
B.Y. Raghavendra, MP from Shivamogga, also the son of Yediyurappa, stated on Tuesday that PM Modi will inaugurate the Shivamogga airport on February 27 and his special flight will be the first to land in the airport on the inauguration day.
Raghavendra said that “all are happy and proud that PM Modi’s flight is the first to land”.
“PM Modi will also inaugurate various development projects and lay foundation stones. Shivamogga airport was built at a cost of Rs 449 crore, making it one of the most cost-effective airports in India. The airport is built on par with international airports with a night landing facility,” he added.
BJP sources said PM Modi is also expected to inaugurate the rebuilt railway station at Belagavi and participate in a road show.

The followers of Yediyurappa are hoping that PM Modi will give a message to the party insiders as well as to the people of the state about his importance.
