Satish Jarakiholi warns his brother Ramesh Jarakiholi
Belagavi: Lok Sabha election is semi-final for us while the final match will be taken place after six months, District in-charge Minister Satish Jarakiholi warned his brother Ramesh Jarakiholi.
Speaking to media representatives on Sunday, Satish said, "The Gokak Constituency was in the control of Ramesh Jarkiholi for the past 20 years. But there are some confusion in the election this time. There are pro-party activists in Gokak," he said.
"It has been learnt that Ramesh, on Saturday, visited party workers and asked them to work for BJP. It was I, who strengthened Congress in Gokak Taluk. Then gave it to Ramesh. This election will reveal who is more powerful," he said.
"MLAs of Gokak constituency are not with our party. Therefore, I had to campaign in the field. Former minister Ramesh Jarakiholi has already left the party. Congress legislature party chairman Siddaramaiah has filed a complaint with the Speaker to take action against Ramesh. In addition, Ramesh Jarakiholi has worked for the BJP at various places in the district. Its equal if the party takes action or not. But, we would work to strengthen our party in Gokak, he added.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
