DK Shivakumar is moving like 'one man army': BJP leader V Somanna
'BJP is not fearing about Reverse Operation'
Bengaluru: "BJP is not fearing about Reverse Operation'. But the coalition leaders who kept the state in darkness are fearing about the future development", said BJP leader V Somanna.
Speaking to reporters here on Saturday, Somanna said, "We all gather in one place and discuss issues. There is no need to read much into it. All confusions of the present politics will be cleared on Tuesday", he said.
The state has been reeling under severe drought. CM HD Kumaraswamy should have thought about it. But going by his words and attitude, he has no concern over the problem. I have never seen such a worst politics in 40 years of political career, he added.
DK Shivakumar is moving like a ‘one man army'. Shivakumar whom I have seen earlier was different and he is different now. He has been doing everything for power. Wherever he goes, he takes cameramen with him to record everything and send it to people whom he wanted to send", Somanna said.

NIA registers case to probe recovery of 79 crude bombs in poll-bound West Bengal
New Delhi (PTI): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Sunday registered a case to probe recovery of 79 crude bombs in poll-bound West Bengal, officials said.
The move came following a directive by the Union Home Ministry in this regard, they said.
In pursuance to the home ministry's order, the anti-terror agency on Sunday registered a case, which was originally filed at Uttar Kashi police station, Bhangar division, Kolkata on Saturday, and took up the investigation, an NIA spokesperson said in a late night statement.
"The case pertains to recovery of 79 crude bombs and other incriminating materials by Kolkata police, which were being stored at a spot, thereby endangering human life and property," the spokesperson said.
Earlier in the day, the Election Commission had directed the West Bengal Police to launch a special drive to arrest those involved in illegal manufacturing of crude bombs in the poll-bound state, an official said.
It asserted that all cases related to the making of any such explosive would be probed by the National Investigation Agency, the official said.
The directive came after the police recovered a large number of crude bombs from the house of a person, allegedly a TMC worker, at Bhangar in South 24 Parganas district, days ahead of the second and final phase of the assembly polls in the state.
The explosives were recovered during a search at the residence of Rafikul Islam following specific inputs, the official said.
The poll panel also issued a warning to senior police officers across the state over any lapse in maintaining law and order before the April 29 polling.
The first phase of the assembly elections in West Bengal was held on April 23, while the second phase will take place on April 29. Votes will be counted on May 4.
A record 93.19 per cent turnout has been recorded in the first round of polling. Bhangar will vote in the second phase.
