All India Labor Association burns effigy, stages protest
Mangaluru: The All India Labor Association today staged a protest demanding the construction of hospital for beedi workers and to stop the unauthorized businesses like massage parlor, club, pub and game.
The protesters, during the protest, burnt the effigy of the Labor Department accusing it of turning a blind eye on such illegal businesses.
Addressing the protesters, Sudatta Jain Shirtadi said, despite staging several protests, Bidi workers hospital is not been built. “In August last year, the DC has been requested to stop the illegal businesses in the city. But no action has been taken,” he added.
Anita Shirtadi, Vijayashree, and others also spoke on the occasion. Labour association’s District President Santosh Kavoor, General Secretary Raju Kulal, Deepak Rao and Ravi Kavoor were also present.

Muniratna should be expelled from BJP: Dinesh Gundurao
Bengaluru: Karnataka's Health Minister Dinesh Gundurao has demanded the expulsion of BJP MLA Muniratna from the party, urging the BJP to demonstrate its commitment to justice and fairness to the people of Karnataka.
Taking to micro blogging platform, X on Tuesday, Gundurao remarked, “BJP MLA Muniratna’s casteist comments against the Vokkaliga community have been confirmed by the FSL report submitted to the SIT. He not only demeaned the Vokkaliga community but also made derogatory remarks about the women of the community.”

He further alleged, “It has been established that Muniratna is not only a casteist but also a misogynist. Despite this, the BJP continues to support him, proving yet again its anti-women stance. The BJP’s backing of Muniratna exposes its hypocrisy in claiming ‘Hindus are one.’”
Gundurao also criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi's slogan, "Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao," calling it "ridiculous" in light of the BJP’s alleged support for individuals accused of mistreating women. He urged the BJP to take action and protect the dignity of women and vulnerable communities in the state.
