Former CM Yediyurappa criticizes Karnataka government for drought mismanagement, expresses confidence in BJP's Lok Sabha election victory.
Former Chief Minister and senior BJP leader B.S. Yediyurappa alleged on Friday, May 3, that the State government has failed to manage drought and is pointing fingers at the Union government for not being able to deal with the situation.
He was speaking at the BJP Lok Sabha election campaign at Byndoor in Udupi district, before conducting a roadshow. Byndoor Assembly segment is under Shivamogga Lok Sabha constituency.
Mr. Yediyurappa said that Karnataka is facing an unprecedented drought this year and farmers and common people are suffering a lot. But the State government is not bothered to attend to the vows of the people. Hence, people are upset over the State government. It will reflect in the Lok Sabha elections scheduled on May 7, he said.
The former Chief Minister claimed that the party candidate B.Y. Raghavendra has done enough development works in Shivamogga constituency and people are observing it.
Mr. Yediyurappa said that he is confident that people will elect his son to the Parliament with a huge majority.
The former Chief Minister claimed that Narendra Modi wave is widespread across the country and the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government will win over 400 seats in the elections. He claimed that the BJP will win all 28 seats in Karnataka.
President of the Tamil Nadu unit of the BJP K. Annamalai, who was a former Superintendent of Police of Udupi district, said that there was no unity among Opposition parties in the country. They faced a dearth of leadership. The Opposition parties have failed to project their Prime Ministerial candidate. But the NDA, he said, has a strong leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi who led the country successfully since a decade.

“Writing, in general, is a very solitary process,” says Yauvanika Chopra, Associate Director at The New India Foundation (NIF), which, earlier this year, announced the 12th edition of its NIF Book Fellowships for research and scholarship about Indian history after Independence. While authors, in general, are built for it, it can still get very lonely, says Chopra, pointing out that the fellowship’s community support is as valuable as the monetary benefits it offers. “There is a solid community of NIF fellows, trustees, language experts, jury members, all of whom are incredibly competent,” she says. “They really help make authors feel supported from manuscript to publication, so you never feel like you’re struggling through isolation.”

Supreme Court ruling on socialism, secularism
Several principals of government and private schools in Delhi on Tuesday said the Directorate of Education (DoE) circular from a day earlier, directing schools to conduct classes in ‘hybrid’ mode, had caused confusion regarding day-to-day operations as they did not know how many students would return to school from Wednesday and how would teachers instruct in two modes — online and in person — at once. The DoE circular on Monday had also stated that the option to “exercise online mode of education, wherever available, shall vest with the students and their guardians”. Several schoolteachers also expressed confusion regarding the DoE order. A government schoolteacher said he was unsure of how to cope with the resumption of physical classes, given that the order directing government offices to ensure that 50% of the employees work from home is still in place. On Monday, the Commission for Air Quality Management in the National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas (CAQM) had, on the orders of the Supreme Court, directed schools in Delhi-NCR to shift classes to the hybrid mode, following which the DoE had issued the circular. The court had urged the Centre’s pollution watchdog to consider restarting physical classes due to many students missing out on the mid-day meals and lacking the necessary means to attend classes online. The CAQM had, on November 20, asked schools in Delhi-NCR to shift to the online mode of teaching.
