Senior BJP leader predicts party will not come back to power in Karnataka; Here's why
Chitradurga: Senior BJP legislator G H Thippareddy on Friday asserted that several party legislators in the party were not happy with the working of the state government under CM BS Yediyurappa in the state.
Addressing a press conference in the city on Friday, the legislator said that the BJP high command should deal with the growing dissent within the party against the working of the government under CM Yediyurappa.
“Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa is striving hard at his work, but needs to give Cabinet positions to senior legislators and party leaders if his work should get empowered,” suggested Thippareddy, adding that, if not, the party might not come back to power in the state.
“The government has failed to satisfy the needs of the districts. A backward district like Chitradurga is being constantly neglected by the government. The Upper Bhadra Project is working at a snail's speed. No grants have been reserved in the budget for the district. Also, the same people are being appointed as district in-charge ministers,” he said expressing disappointment.
Expressing dissatisfaction with District In-charge Minister B Sriramulu, Thippareddy said that the minister visits the district and chairs KDP meetings barely twice a year.

Kolkata court to deliver judgement in rape-murder of RG Kar hospital doctor
Kolkata (PTI): The judgement in the brutal rape and murder of an on-duty doctor at R G Kar Medical College and Hospital here will be delivered later on Saturday.
Sanjay Roy, who was a civic volunteer with the Kolkata Police, was charged with committing the crime on the postgraduate trainee at the state-run hospital in the northern part of the city on August 9 last year.
The judgement will be delivered by Anirban Das, the additional district and sessions judge of the Sealdah court, 57 days after the in-camera trial commenced on November 12.
The Kolkata Police, which was investigating the case initially arrested Roy on August 10, a day after the medic's body was recovered from the seminar room of the hospital. The Calcutta High Court later transferred the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The in-camera trial in the rape and murder of the doctor commenced on November 12.
The hearing in Roy's trial was concluded on January 9, during which 50 witnesses were examined. The parents of the deceased doctor have claimed that other persons were involved in the crime and expected that they would also be arrested and tried before the court.
The victim's parents have also filed an application before the court seeking further investigation into the case.
The crime led to nationwide outrage and prolonged protests by junior doctors in Kolkata, demanding justice for the victim and adequate security arrangements in state-run hospitals.
