BJP is politicising Pulwama Incident: Sitaram Yechuri
Kasaragod, Feb 16: CPM national general secretary Sitaram Yechury said that the BJP is politicising the Pulwama terror attack.
Speaking to reporters at Manjeshwar during his visit to Kasaragod to participate in LDF Jana Samrakshana Yatre, on Saturday, he said that there was no alliance with the Congress in West Bengal. The aim of the CPM was to defeat both the Congress and TMC. In the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections, the left parties would emerge as a big force and 2004 result would be repeated in 2019, he exuded Confidence.
As to why the BJP, which has been speaking about equality between man and woman, is opposing the entry of women into Sabarimala temple? While implementing the triple talaq, the BJP was saying that both male and female were equal. But in Sabarimala issue, it was taking double standard. It was politicising such issues only to get votes, he alleged.

Silver heist: Three detained in Chikkaballapur
Chikkaballapur (PTI): A gang of unidentified men struck a jewellery store here and decamped with around 140 kg of silver ornaments valued at nearly Rs three crore, police said on Wednesday.
According to the police, the burglars broke open the shop’s shutter and door locks on Monday night and carried out the theft without leaving behind any immediate clues.
The burglary came to light on Tuesday morning when shop staff arrived to open the showroom and found the locks broken, following which the police were informed.
