Dharwad: “It’s very difficult to bring two bottles of liquor from neighbouring state. Then how did huge quantity of 350kgs of rdx come to Pulwama of Jammu and Kashmir”, former minister Vinay Kulkarni asked.

Speaking to reporters here on Wednesday, Kulkarni said that if such a terror attacked was occurred during Congress regime, the BJP people would have sat dharna. But now, they were silent which shows their patriotism, he ridiculed.

Observing the recent developments in the country, the people were in favour of the Congress. People have understood the reality of ‘Chowkidar’. The Pulwama terror attack was a fine example for the failure of the central intelligence, he alleged.

It would be very difficult to bring two bottles of liquor cross the check-post from neighbouring Goa. But how could such a huge quantity of RDX come to Pulwama? Where is the country now, he asked.

During elections, BJP people would create ruckus for any issues. They do not have development agenda. In order to cover-up its failures, the Modi government has been engineering communal clash between castes and religions, the Congress leader said.

Chamarajnagar: In an untoward incident reported from Indiganatta village under the Mahadeshwara Hills Gram Panchayat administration limits in Hanur taluk, government officials were injured as they attempted at pacifying a group of angry voters who had declared they were boycotting the polls on Friday.

Tahsildar Guruprasad and Taluk Panchayat Chief Officer Umesh and a police inspector were reportedly injured in the clash. In addition, the protesters are learned to have destroyed the polling booth, including the electronic voting machine (EVM), set up in the village. One of the voters who visited the booth was reportedly injured in the head in the incident.

Angry over the non-availability of infrastructure in their village, the voters in Indiganatta declared that they would not exercise their right to franchise on Friday. Guruprasad, Umesh and the police officer, who were informed of the boycott, visited Indiganatta to appease the voters and get them to cast vote. The group of voters, however, directed their anger at the officers, resulting in the trio being injured.

The protesters in Indiganatta were not only adamant about their boycott, but also infuriated by the sight of other voters in the village cast ballot at the polling booth. In anger, they initially had an argument with the voters but later forced their way into the booth and reportedly destroyed the EVM there.
Polling is currently reported to have been stalled in Indiganatta due to the violent incident.
