Mangaluru, July 19: The district youth JD(S) urged Lok Sabha Member Nalin Kumar Kateel to resign from his post holding moral responsibility for the delay in completing the Pumpwell-Thokkottu national highway over-bridge work.

The JDS workers staged a protest at the Pumpwell Circle here on Thursday against the delay in completing the work.

Addressing the agitators, Akshith Suvarna of district Youth JDS said that the MP has been giving false assurance to the people without doing anything and thus cheating the people. Though the work was being carried out for the last 7-8 years, it was not yet completed. It has caused accidents and deaths of precious lives. So, this time, he should be rejected as he was responsible for the delay in completing the over bridge work. But the MP has been passing the buck on officers and the construction company, he alleged.

The agitators shouted against the central government, national authority of India and the MP.

Dakshina Kannada district JDS president Muhammad Kunhi Vittla, state organizing secretary Faisal Rehman, youth general secretaries Madhusudhan Gowda and Srinath Rai, party district secretary Ram Ganesh, state leader Gopalkrishna Attavara, district Sumathi Hegde, Ramesh N, Sushil Narhona, Rathnakar Suvarna, Lathief, Muhammad Razaq, Rathish Karkera, Likhit Raj, Muhammad Asif, Hitesh Rai, Bharat Hegde, Kishore Shetty, Sharief Puttur, Satyanarayan, Kaleel, Kalandar, Musafar, Anish, Koushik, Abdul Aziz and others participated.

New Delhi: Tesla CEO Elon Musk has commended India's election process for its efficiency in counting 640 million votes in a single day. In a post on X, Musk compared this feat with California's delayed vote-counting process, stating, "India counted 640 million votes in 1 day. California is still counting votes."

The comment came in response to an X post featuring an article titled, "How India Counted 640 Million Votes in a Day," accompanied by the caption, "Meanwhile in India, where cheating isn’t the primary goal of their elections."

California, which had 16 million voters participating in its November 5 election, is still processing over 300,000 ballots after 18 days. Reports indicate that around 570,000 ballots remain uncounted statewide, with delays attributed to the labor-intensive validation of mail-in votes.
