Kolar: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, while addressing a roadshow in Bangarapet town of Kolar Lok Sabha constituency, called on voters to hand over the "empty mug" given to the state by PM Modi to the JDS candidate in Kolar and ensure victory for the Congress candidate.
He criticised Modi and Deve Gowda for allegedly deceiving the people of Chikkaballapur with false promises. Siddaramaiah questioned why the state's share of tax money, drought grants, and flood relief were not provided, despite the promises made.
He accused Modi of waiving off loans for the rich while neglecting farmers' loans and failing to provide minimum support prices for crops. Siddaramaiah asserted that Modi's "empty mug" was a symbol of the fraud committed against the state in the 15th Finance Commission.
Siddaramaiah challenged Deve Gowda to fill the mug with the losses and injustices faced by the state. He also criticised Deve Gowda for his previous statements and alliances, urging voters to reject the "empty mug" of Modi.
Siddaramaiah expressed confidence in the victory of the Congress candidate, Gautam, in Kolar and called for a stronger mandate in Bangarapet Assembly Constituency to empower MLA Narayanaswamy.

Karnataka School Edu Dept prohibits children from being made to dance to obscene songs
Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka School Education Department has issued a circular strictly prohibiting children from being made to dance to obscene songs in educational and cultural programmes.
It stated that such dances would negatively impact students' mental health and moral values. It will create indiscipline and harm the sanctity of education.
"All the Deputy Directors (Administration) of the state's School Education Department have been asked to take strict measures to prevent children or students from dancing to obscene songs in all government, aided and unaided schools in the state," the office of the commissioner of the School Education Department said in a recent circular.
"If it is found that children are being made to dance to obscene songs, appropriate action will be taken against the headmaster or management of such school," it added.
The department also listed certain measures in this regard, which include: strictly prohibiting children from being made to dance to obscene songs during educational and cultural programmes; selecting songs that are inspiring, positive, instilling national pride in children and reflecting the greatness, dignity, values, culture, and morality of the state.
Stating that the school headmaster and management are responsible for selecting songs and dances for cultural programmes, it said, they should also ensure that students wear decent clothes in dance or cultural programmes.
