Any moment BSY can become CM: Union Minister Sadananda Gowda
Bengaluru, Aug 04: Politics is never stagnant water. At any time, the Congress-JDS alliance government can fall. Yeddyurappa may become Chief Minister again, said Union Minister DV Sadananda Gowda.
Speaking after inaugurating the district workers committee meeting at the party office here on Saturday, he said that it would not be astonishing if the government falls at any moment.
“BJP is confident of getting 70 percent seats in the municipal corporations, town municipalities, and other local bodies’ elections. People will teach a tough lesson to JDS-Congress in this election. People should not pay heed to media’s stories. They apply ‘masala’ for news. But our activists are the media for us. So believe in them,” he said.
“The corruption and scandals that took place during the Siddaramaiah government have continued in the coalition government as well. Earlier, they were looting alone, and now they are looting together. They are corrupt captains,” he mocked.
The Supreme Court has ordered not to keep migrants coming from neighboring countries. About 1.5 lakh illegal Bangladeshi immigrants are living in Bengaluru. Approximately four million illegal immigrants are living in Chikkamagaluru's coffee estates. For any reason, we will not allow the traitors to live here; he warned.

Ramdas Athawale backs Fadnavis as Maharashtra CM; says Shinde can shift to Centre
New Delhi, Nov 26: RPI(A) leader Ramdas Athawale, a key BJP ally, on Tuesday called for a quick decision on the next chief minister of Maharashtra and suggested that incumbent Eknath Shinde should shift to the Centre as a Union minister.
Addressing a press conference here, Athawale also backed senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis as the next chief minister of Maharashtra, contending that the saffron party won the maximum number of seats in the 288-member Assembly and should have the right to the top executive post in the state.
He said a peculiar situation has arisen in Maharashtra where BJP leaders want Fadnavis as the chief minister, while Shiv Sena leaders want Shinde to continue in the post, citing the good work he has done over the last two and a half years.
Athawale, the Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment, said NCP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has declared that he was not in the race for the chief minister.
"We need to resolve this matter, without any further delay. The election results were announced on November 23 and we should have had the oath of the new chief minister on November 26, the Constitution Day," Athawale said.
Backing Fadnavis for the post of chief minister, Athawale said Shinde can become the deputy chief minister or shift to the Centre and join the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Athawale said his RPI(A) has a presence in every part of the state, but unfortunately lost the two seats -- Dharavi and Kalina -- offered to it in the recent Maharashtra Assembly elections.
He demanded that an RPI member be made an MLC and a minister in the state government.
The BJP-led Mahayuti won a landslide victory in the Maharashtra Assembly elections winning 235 seats in the 288-member House. The BJP won 132 seats, followed by Shinde-led Shiv Sena (57) and Ajit Pawar-led NCP (41). Smaller parties, who are part of the alliance, won five seats.
