  • Gives Edge to BJP in Karnataka
    VERDICT 2019 Sparring between Congress and JD (S) Gives Edge to BJP in Karnataka S. RAJENDRAN A para-motor flying in Vijayapura city on Monday, May 8, 2019, to encourage people to vote in coming Lok Sabha elections. Photo: Rajendra Singh Hajeri. For long a pocket borough of the Congress party Karnataka appears headed for a waveless election. The southern State, which goes to the polls in two phases - 14 seats each on April 18 and April 23, will see a direct contest between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is in government in the centre and the Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) combine, which is in power at the State. S. Rajendran, Senior Fellow, The Hindu Centre for Politics and Public Policy, Bengaluru, writes on how each of the main parties to the contest are placed. The two main contestents - the BJP and the Congress-JD (S) coalition, he says, are expected to share the spoils, though the former enjoys an edge. he 2019 General Election to the Lok Sabha for the 28 seats from Karnataka, to be held in two phases on April 18 and 23 (See Appendix for T dates and constituencies1), is expected to be markedly different from the last elections held in 2014. First, this time round the poll will be a direct challenge between the Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) [JD (S)] combine and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Second, there is no perceptible wave in favour of any political party. The two formations are, therefore, expected to share the spoils although the BJP enjoys considerable edge because of two factors: differences within the Congress party and the conflict of interests between the grassroots level workers of the Congress and the JD (S).

  • Statement Condemning the Blatant Attempt to Communalise the Pandemic by Some Bjp Leaders, Including Tejasvi Surya
    1 STATEMENT CONDEMNING THE BLATANT ATTEMPT TO COMMUNALISE THE PANDEMIC BY SOME BJP LEADERS, INCLUDING TEJASVI SURYA 06/05/2021 On 4/5/2021, the BJP Member of Parliament from Bangalore South Tejasvi Surya, accompanied by Basavanagudi MLA Ravi Subramanya, Chickpet MLA Uday Garudachar and Bommanahalli MLA Satish Reddy visited the BBMP South Zone control room. The objective was to supposedly unearth a scam that has been underway in the bed allotment process of the municipal corporation. A video of this encounter where three men are intimidating a woman officer of the BBMP has been circulating on whatsapp and other social media. Despite the fact that the control room had more than 200 people from various communities, Mr. Surya cherrypicked and singled out a list of 17 Muslim workers alleging them of the scam. Mr. Subramanya provoked further by asking “have you appointed them for a Madrassa or a corporation?” Questioning the appointment process, another MLA asked “How can he appoint 17 members like a Haj committee?" Soon after, a WhatsApp message began to be circulated listing out the same Muslim names read out by Mr. Surya and called them terrorists. Further, the highly respected, Joint Commissioner Solid Waste Management, Mr. Sarfraz Khan was accused that the war room headed by him was responsible for many deaths. Pained by these false allegations, Mr. Khan, wrote a Facebook post dismissing the allegations. Mr. Khan’s exemplary commitment to humanity is well known among officials and civil society members. News reports indicate that many of the 17 Muslims listed by the BJP legislators have been fired.

Against this background, ADRN published this special report to evaluate the current state of social media and the spread of disinformation in the region by studying the phenomenon and its impact within different countries in Asia, as well as their responses. The report investigates pressing, contemporary questions such as: Who are the major disinformation disseminators? What are the primary issue areas and who are the main targets? What are the effects of disinformation? What current legal and political efforts have been placed by governments, lawmakers, media and CSOs to combat against disinformation? What are the methods of disinformation applied towards different linguistic communities? How do public figures use their personal social media accounts to engage with the public? Drawing on a rich array of resources and data, This report offers country-specific analyses, highlights areas of improvement, and suggests policy recommendations for ensuring the protection of social media and online platforms from the spread of disinformation. “Social Media, Disinformation and Democracy in Asia: Country Cases” ISBN (electronic) 979-11-6617-054-6 95340 ISBN (print) 979-11-6617-055-3 93340 This report is part of the Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN) products for 2019-2020.

  • Banks May Also Be Instructed to Allow Self Help Groups (Shgs) to Act As Banking Correspondents by Infusing Adequate Liquidity
    10.02.2021 KSP/RJN Uncorrected/Not for publication 406 (2100/SPR/VB) Banks may also be instructed to allow Self Help Groups (SHGs) to act as banking correspondents by infusing adequate liquidity. Our concern is when hon. Prime Minister is in favour of priority sector lending to SHGs, MSMEs, Start- Ups and agriculture, why are banks not following? Why are banks reluctant to give credit for agriculture, SHGs, and MSMEs? My humble submission is banks may be instructed to remove the hurdles so that true financial inclusion can be achieved. About National Highways, importance should be given to the quality of National Highways in Odisha. The quality of the National Highways in Odisha has been deteriorated substantially because of inadequate allocation of funds for improvement, ordinary repair, and periodical renewal. Progress of work of several stretches of NHs in Odisha which has been entrusted to the NHAI for upgradation to four-lane standard under the NHDP Phase-III is very slow due to inadequate allocation of funds. This is very important for Odisha. I want to raise an issue now which is close to the heart of not only 4.5 crore Odia people but also to the people living in different corners of the world. Lord Jagannatha is not only the heart and soul of 4.5 crore of Odia people but also the Lord of the Universe. Jagannatha Samskruti (culture) shows the way of love and peace. Odisha Government and its Chief Minister, Shri Naveen Patnaik are continuously trying to improve the city of Puri and temple-adjoining areas.

Anand Secretary, National Commission for Minorities Email id: [email protected] Sub: Complaint against BJP MP Tejasvi Surya and 3 others for their communal remarks Respected Sir(s), We, at Citizens for Justice and Peace, Mumbai, are concerned about the categorical communal remarks made by Bhartiya Janta Party Member of Parliament Tejasvi Surya along with three other MLAs singling out the Muslim community while on their visit to a Covid-19 war room for inspection in Bengaluru. The incident We want to bring to your attention a recent incident on May 4, 2021, where Bhartiya Janta Party’s Bengaluru (South) Member of Parliament, Tejasvi Surya listed out sixteen Muslim names, linking them with an alleged bed blocking ‘scam’ in the south Municipal Zone. The video of the communal remarks made by him and fellow MLAs raised furore on social media after it was widely circulated. During his inspection of the Covid-19 war room in south Bengaluru, he chose to read out only the 16Muslim names of the 214 persons employed at the centre, asking their qualifications. Suryais seen standing along with Chickpet MLA Uday Garudachar, BommanahalliMLASatish Reddy and Basavanagudi MLA Ravi Subramanya (who also happens to be Tejasvi Surya’s uncle) in the war room. A staffer responded to him saying all of them were hired after applications were invited by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) from agencies.
