KCV a buffoon says Karnataka's senior Muslim Congress MLA

 R Roshan Baig, veteran Congress legislator on a otherwise politically dull Tuesday created a stir by his angry outbursts against his own party men ultimately ending up in receiving a show cause notice by the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee headed by Dinesh Gundurao.
In fact he threw a stone at the Congress honeycomb nest Yesterday itself by speaking to a select few journalists of the Silicon city's Urdu newspapers. Today's reactions and actions were only a follow up of his public outbursts which kept on getting reiterated throughout the day on the local broadcast media.

When his reaction over his statements in today's Urdu print media was sought by media persons, he went a few steps further in comparison to what he had Yesterday and called the party bosses with all sorts of names possible.He described KC Venugopal, General Secretary of All India Congress Committee as a 'Buffoon' while terming Dinesh Gundurao, KPCC president and Siddaramaiah, former chief minister as 'Flop Shows'!

The eight times member of the state legislative Assembly and multiple times minister in the Janata Party and Congress governments also squarely blamed the above three people if the findings of the exit polls were to come true in the state.A politician right from the college days during the early eighties began his political career with the Janata Party. However he switched over to the Congress party after the state Janata cum Janata Dal Party suffered many splits in between.

R Roshan Baig has enjoyed enough power as a minister of different portfolios during his prolonged tenure of eight times so far. In that way and on the face of it there's no valid justification for his public diatribe since Yesterday.Of course he was a sad man after being let out of the ministry formation when the Janata Dal Secular(JDS) and Indian National Congress(INC) government assumed office in the state last year.
R Ramalingareddy, another veteran city legislator also had the same grouse during the ministry formation. But he chose to aim his guns at two cabinet ministers of his own party for not being included into the cabinet.

Contrary to R Ramalingareddy, R Roshan Baig is much more candid in making sweeping remarks against his party bosses and has also showered praises to the saffron party thus indicating of his possible political footsteps sooner or later.Perhaps H Vishwanath, state Janata Dal Secular party president and bete noire of Siddaramaiah was the happiest person today following the statements of R Roshan Baig. He in fact he thanked R Roshan Baig for speaking the 'truth ultimately'.

H Vishwanath is also known for casting aspersions against Siddaramaiah for the latter's penchant of going to the public every now and then of becoming a chief minister once again.He has even reprimanded the former Congress chief minister with all possible taunts and names leading to a uneasy situation between the coalition partners.However the fact remains that H Vishwanath may not have stooped to that level without a formal go ahead from the Janata Dal Secular party top brass.Apart from R Roshan Baig even his son, R Ruman Baig has also praised the Bharatiya Janata Party on his twitter handle thus giving enough indications of the road ahead.

When Punjab Chief Minister's Son Was Paraded On Underwear

Year, 1959, Place Amritsar. Some Indian Army Officers & their wives went to the Railway Station to see off one of their colleagues. Some goons made lewd remarks against the women & tried to molest them. The Army Officers chased the goons who took shelter in a nearby Cinema Theatre. The matter was reported to Commanding Officer Col Jyothi Mohan Sen. On learning about the incident, the Col ordered the Cinema Hall to be surrounded by troops. All the goons were dragged out, the leader of the goons was so heady and drunk with power; he was none other than the son of Chief Minister of Punjab, Pratap Singh Kairon, a close associate of the then PM, Jawahar Lal Nehru. All the goons were stripped to their underwear, paraded in the streets of Amritsar & later interned in the Cantonment. The next day, the Chief Minister became furious & tried to release his son from Indian Army's incarceration. Do you know what happened? His vehicle was not allowed to go into the Cantonment a...

Basavanna: Equality, Humanity and Human Rights

Bengaluru: Akshaya Trutiya is the birthday of Lord Basaveshwara or Basavanna, the 12th-century revolutionary poet and religious reformer who rebelled against all blind beliefs, practices and rituals of Hinduism. It also goes to his credit of bringing God to one’s palms while simultaneously and vehemently opposing the tradition of visiting temples and places of pilgrimages in search of the almighty. Interestingly, unfortunately, or sadly what his followers or disciples have been doing all along would be another separate topic for discussion and better to forget for the time being. A Hindu Protestant: Dr Godwin Shiri, former Director of Christian Institute For The Study Of Religion And Society (CISRS), Bengaluru, during an informal interaction, opined-“Basavanna can be aptly described as a Hindu Protestant as he was in the forefront of opposing blind beliefs”. Influenced by Buddha: Mallikarjun G Kelagade, former Director of the Department of Information and Public Relations (DIPR) kee...

Dharwad's Arya Durga, Rukmini and Saraswati...: From Nothing to Crores and Crores...

Bengaluru: Arya Durga Kirani Stores, with Rukmini and Saraswati outlets, are household names for all those residing in and natives of Dharwad. It was a humble and austere beginning, dating back a few decades, thanks to hard work, sincerity, and trustworthy behaviour with customers, the business flourished and grew in leaps and bounds in an unimaginable proportion. Started working at the age of eight years! The owner, late Gajanan Vitthal Shetti, was primarily from Ankola in the North Canara (Karwar) district. Ankola, a coastal town, is renowned for its Salt Satyagraha during the freedom struggle movement. The financial condition of Shetti's family was too critical, making it too difficult to meet even the basic demands of day-to-day life. He began working at a ration shop while he was only eight years of age and continued working until he became 15 years old. Mahalakshmi Hotel boomerangs: Then Gajanan Vitthal Shetti came to Hubballi to do business. He came with his father, Vitth...
