Bengaluru, May 4: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that first BJP leaders should appeal Prime Minister Narendra Modi to fulfill the assurance of crediting Rs 15 lakh to the bank accounts of each citizen.
Responding to the BJP’s proposal of waiving of Rs 1 lakh crop loan of farmers in its manifesto in the Twitter, Siddaramaiah said that farmers would not require the promise of waiving Rs 1 lakh crop loan. Instead, let the BJP leaders apprise Modi to fulfill the old promise of crediting Rs 15 lakh into bank accounts. When Yeddyurappa was asked to waive of farmers loan during BJP government, the latter said that he did not have note printing machine. Does Yeddyurappa get the note printing machine now, Siddaramaiah asked.
In its manifesto, BJP has promised of waiving of crop loan up to Rs 1 lakh, 10 hour three-phase power for farmers pump sets every day, Reintroducing Karnataka Ban on Cow Slaughter and Protection Act 2012 and others.

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.
