I won’t ask votes if I fail to give jobs: HDK
Vijayapura, May 4: If he failed to give job opportunities to every eligible youth after forming JDS government in the state, he would never ask people to his party again, said JDS state president HD Kumaraswamy.
Addressing the Vikasa Parva rally at Chadachana in the district on Friday, Kumaraswamy, who appealed the people to vote his party for alleviating unemployment problem, said that Siddaramaiah-led Congress government has failed to fill two and half lakh posts in the state. The Congress leaders have been trying to tarnish the image of the JDS in order to attract the votes of minorities. But JDS does not believe in castes. He would serve the people of the state if given an opportunity, he said.
JDS is neither in favour of Congress nor BJP. It is in favour of the people. A false case was booked against party candidate Devanand. The police have to face the music after JDS coming to power, he warned.
Farmers should not commit suicide fearing of loans recovery, because he was with them. “I won’t become the chief minister of the third floor Vidhana Soudha. I would come to your huts. Give me six months time after giving me the power. I would give 24 hours power supply to entire state, he said.
There is no word of 50:50. This time, the JDS will win the cup. Siddaramaiah is also communal due to which he has contested from Badami. Did Prime Minister Narendra Modi come to Karnataka just to give an opinion on JDS instead of speaking on the problems of the state. What is the contribution of Yogi Adityanath, Amith Shah to the state? Modi cannot fool the people of the state just by referring the noted personalities of the state, he said.

BJP using women's quota bill as front to pass Delimitation Bill that will break India: Mamata
Cooch Behar (WB) (PTI): Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday alleged the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre was using the proposed amendment to the women's quota law in Parliament as a front for the Delimitation Bill that would "break the country into pieces".
The TMC will fight this Central government's move at every step, she asserted at her party's poll rally here.
The Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill to tweak the women's quota law, along with the Delimitation Bill and the Union Territories Laws (Amendment) Bill, to implement the proposed amended women's quota law, in the Union territories of Delhi, Puducherry and Jammu and Kashmir, were introduced in the Lok Sabha on Thursday.
According to the Constitution amendment bill, Lok Sabha seats will be increased to a maximum of 850 from the current 543 to "operationalise" the women's reservation law before the 2029 parliamentary polls, following a delimitation exercise based on the 2011 Census.
Seats will also be increased in state and Union territory assemblies to accommodate 33 per cent reservation for women.
Opposing the Centre's move, Banerjee alleged that "the BJP brought the Delimitation Bill while keeping the women's reservation bill at the front".
"The BJP is trying to increase the number of seats in the Lok Sabha to nearly 850 through the Delimitation Bill. It will break the country into pieces," the TMC supremo said.
She also alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was not speaking the truth about the development of north Bengal at a BJP rally last week.
"The prime minister said nothing was done for the development of north Bengal. But we spent Rs 1.72 lakh crore on the development of the region," Banerjee said and asked Modi to cross-check data before making such remarks.
