Do you know who is Karnataka’s ex-dalit CM ‘Ninja’lingappa?
BJP IT cell chief’s mistake
Bengaluru, May 6: As the voting day is just six days ahead for the Karnataka Assembly election, political parties have been engaging in mudslinging on each other. Interestingly, this election has gained much curiosity as social media is playing a major role in campaigning and bullying others. Majorly, Twitter is the most popular platform to make comments and attacks. No party is lagging behind in utilizing the social media. Most importantly, both Congress and BJP have been indulging in verbal duals through Twitter. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah have personally engaging in Twitter war.
Today, BJP IT cell head Amith Malaviya has become a laughing stock because of a post tweeted by him on former Congress chief minister S Nijalingappa. In a hurry to comment, Amith Malaviya has tweeted on May 5 as “Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been exposing the fake love of Congress leaders towards dalits. Modi has been describing how Nehru-Gandhi family had treated Ambedkar and Ninjalingappa, he tweeted.
Besides spelling Karnataka former chief minister Nijalingappa’s name as ‘Ninjalingappa’, Malaviya has done another blunder terming Nijalingappa as a dalit leader and thus he has become a laughing stock. For this tweet, Kannadigas have attacked Amith Malaviya.
“What Ninja? Are an IT Cell head? Instead of WhatsApp, Google Search could help you. Amith don’t believe all in WhatsApp”, tweeted Srujana.
Another person tweeted as “they are not dalit and his name was not ‘Ninja-Lingappa”. However, another posted a photo of Ninja fighter with a sword in his hand.

Pakistan reports two more polio cases; Total tally now 52
ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.
“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.
The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.
“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.
Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.
There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
