Mysuru, Apr 26: JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy, who had formed the government with the BJP in Karnataka in the past, has now accused Congress of reaching a secret pact with the saffron party in Varuna Assembly constituency.

“The Congress derives a wicked pleasure in describing the JD(S) as the ‘B’ team of the BJP. Why did the BJP withdraw the candidature of B Y Vijayendra, son of former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa, from Varuna, where Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s son Dr Yathindra is contesting?” he questioned.

“There is a possibility of a secret pact between Siddaramaiah and Yeddyurappa. We have a coalition with the BSP and we do not have any understanding with any other party. We have the confidence to take both the Congress and the BJP head-on,” he said.

He was addressing the Kumara Parva convention, which was attended by both JD(S) and BSP candidates and party workers of the Mysuru region, at the Maharaja’s College Grounds here.

Mangaluru: Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy C H has warned of strict action against individuals spreading rumours and attempting to create insecurity within the Muslim community and fuel hatred between Hindus and Muslims through social media.

Referring to a recent social media post alleging that police personnel had entered a masjid premises to check whether beef was being cooked, the commissioner said miscreants were attempting to push their communal agenda.

“A group of people, both from Mangaluru and abroad, are trying hard to spread rumours. For the past 10 days, they have been attempting to rake up old issues, highlight routine matters as controversies, or fabricate news altogether,” he said.

He reiterated that any such attempts to disturb communal harmony would invite legal action. “Cases will be registered and the accused will be brought to book,” he stated.
