BSY day-dreaming to become CM: Siddaramaiah
“My fight is in favour of oppressed class”
Mandya, September 23: Clarifying that the coalition government was safe in the state and no one could able to topple it, former chief minister and coalition government coordination committee chairman Siddaramaiah ridiculed that BJP state president B.S Yeddyurappa was day dreaming to become chief minister.
Inaugurating the Kanaka Bhavan constructed on the premises of Kurubara Sangha in the city on Sunday, Siddaramaiah said that the BJP leaders were dreaming of getting power through back-door. BJP was in the opposition position as it has no majority. But it was day dreaming about forming the government for which they have planned to purchase MLAs. Where the BJP got so much of money, he asked.
No Congress MLA would leave the party. BJP should not come to power again in the state.
The coalition government was working for the people. When he was the chief minister, he had waived off the farm loans up to Rs 50,000. This government has also waived off the farm loans. Caste census was important to provide socio-economic, educational and political facilities. He would discuss with the Chief Minister on releasing the report of the caste census, he said.
No question of compromise
“I would not hesitate to say I am in favour Ahinda. My fight for the oppressed class will continue and there is no compromise in it. But the programmes I have implemented are not just restricted to Ahinda. Some people accuse me of favouring only Ahinda. What about the programmes like Anna Bhagya, Ksheera Bhagya, Loan waiver, Vidya Siri and other programmes? Didn’t all the communities get the benefits of these programmes”, he asked.
His government has constituted Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Development Authority, celebrated jayantis of Kempe Gowda, Bhageeratha, Rani Chennamma and others, made it compulsory to put up the portrait of Basavanna in the government offices and those programmes were not limited to just Ahinda class, he said.

Jharkhand horror: Man kills live-in partner, chops body into 40 pieces
Ranchi (PTI): A 25-year-old man, who works as a butcher, allegedly strangled to death his live-in partner and chopped her body into 40 to 50 pieces in a forested area in Jharkhand’s Khunti district, police said on Wednesday.
The accused, identified as Naresh Bhengra, was arrested.
The matter came to light after around a fortnight after the killing when a stray dog was found with human body parts near Jordag village in Jariagarh police station on November 24.
Bhengra was in a live-in relationship with the deceased, a 24-year-old woman also from Khunti district, in Tamil Nadu for the past couple of years. Sometime back, he returned to Jharkhand, got married to another woman without telling his partner anything and went back to the southern state without his wife to join her.
"The brutal incident occurred on November 8 when they reached Khunti as the accused who had married another woman did not wish to take her home. Instead, he took her to a forest near his house at Jordag village in Jariagarh police station and chopped the body into pieces. The man has been arrested," Khunti Superintendent of Police Aman Kumar told PTI.
Inspector Ashok Singh who investigated the case said the man worked in a butcher shop in Tamil Nadu and was expert in slicing chicken.
“He admitted chopping the body parts of the woman into 40 to 50 pieces before leaving those in the forest for wild animals to feast on. The police recovered several parts on November 24 after a dog in the area was seen with a hand," Singh told PTI.
Singh said that the woman, who was unaware of his marriage, pressured him to return to Khunti. After reaching Ranchi, they boarded a train on November 24 and headed to the man's village.
"Under a plan, the man took her to Khunti in an autorickshaw near his home and asked her to wait. He returned with sharp weapons and strangulated her with her dupatta after raping her. He then cut the body into 40 to 50 pieces and left for his home to live with his wife," Singh said.
The woman, however, had informed her mother that she had boarded a train and would be living with her partner, the police officer said.
Following the recovery of body parts, a bag was also found in the forest with the murdered woman's belongings including her Aadhaar card. The mother of the woman was called at the spot and she identified her daughter's belongings.
"The mother suspected the man behind the crime who after being nabbed by the police admitted to chopping the woman into pieces," the official added.
The incident has sent shockwaves among people in the region, with the Shraddha Walker murder case of 2022 still fresh in their memory.
Walker was killed by her live-in partner who chopped her body into pieces before dumping them in the jungle in South Delhi’s Mehrauli.
