CM Siddaramaiah takes a dig at BRS leader Rama Rao over fake edited videos
Bengaluru: Taking a dig at Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Working President K T Rama Rao, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday said his party lost in the Telangana Assembly elections, because they don't even know how to verify what is fake and edited videos, and what is truth.
He accused the BRS of circulating fake edited videos created by BJP, and called it the ''perfect B-team'' of the saffron party.
The Chief Minister was responding to Rao's post on X, sharing a purported edited video of his statement in Karnataka Assembly, where he can be heard making a reference to lack of funds to deliver poll promises or guarantees.
''Mr. K T Rama Rao, Do you know why your party lost in the Telangana Elections? Because you don't even know how to verify what is fake and edited, and what is truth. BJP creates fake edited videos, and your party circulates them. Yours is a perfect B Team of BJP,'' Siddaramaiah said on X.
Sharing a video of Siddaramaiah's speech in the Assembly, Rao had said, ''No money to deliver poll promises/guarantees says Karnataka CM! Is this the future template for Telangana too after successfully hoodwinking the people in elections ?'' ''Aren't you supposed to do basic research and planning before making outlandish statements?'' the Chief Minister asked.
In his December 17 post, in which he had attached the unedited video of his statement, the Chief Minister accused BJP leaders of indulging in deceptive tactic, involving circulating an edited video that distorts his statements, falsely implying an admission of the Congress's inability to fulfill promises made in 2023.
''Contrary to the manipulated narrative, the unaltered video clearly reflects my remarks in the assembly, holding the BJP accountable for failing to fulfill promises made in their 2018 manifesto, especially the loan waiver promise they had made'', he said.
''I cited the fact that Yediyurappa (former CM), in 2009, had stated that they didn't have a printing machine to print notes and lacked the funds to waive farm loans. Yediyurappa had acknowledged that it was not possible for the BJP to fulfill promises made during elections.....'' Claiming that his government has fulfilled all the guarantee schemes within the first week of government formation and are in the process of fulfilling other manifesto promises, Siddaramaiah said, ''We are committed to our promises. The attempt to manipulate the narrative by presenting a distorted video is a disconcerting example of misinformation that undermines the public's right to accurate information.''

Ghaziabad woman alleges harassment for dowry, demand to maintain body like actor Nora Fatehi
Ghaziabad: A 26-year-old woman from Ghaziabad has filed a complaint against her husband and in-laws, accusing them of harassment, body shaming, and demanding dowry. In her complaint, the woman alleges that her husband repeatedly told her she should resemble Bollywood actor Nora Fatehi and body-shamed her for not meeting these expectations.
The woman, a resident of Muradnagar, was married six months ago, with her family reportedly spending over Rs 76 lakh on the wedding. In addition to the lavish wedding, the woman’s family gifted her husband a Mahindra Scorpio, along with cash and jewellery. Despite these expenses, the woman claims her in-laws continued to harass her, demanding more dowry.
The complainant, whose husband is a physical education teacher at a government school, further alleges that he frequently body-shamed her, calling her “fat and ugly.” He allegedly insisted that she exercise for three hours a day, and when she failed to comply, she was deprived of food.
The situation took a darker turn when the woman found she was pregnant two months ago. According to her statement, she informed her mother-in-law, but received no response or support. The woman reportedly claims that her husband later gave her a pill, which she later identified online as being used for abortions. She alleges that when her health began to deteriorate, her in-laws sent her back to her parents’ home. After seeking medical attention, she was informed by doctors that she had suffered a miscarriage.
She also alleged that her husband frequently watched inappropriate content online and was a habitual womaniser.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Saloni Agarwal confirmed that an FIR has been filed at the women’s police station in Ghaziabad and an investigation is underway.
