Ramya skips darshan of her political guru Ambareesh
Fans express their resentment against actress’ absence
Mandya, November 26: People expressed their anger against actress and former Lok Sabha Member Ramya who did not turn up to have last darshan of actor and former minister Ambareesh in the city.
Film fraternity and personalities from other walks of life including politicians came and paid their homage to the departed soul. But she was absent and it has triggered an anger among fans. In fact, Ambareesh was instrumental in Ramya’s entry into the politics. Moreover, she is an actress. She should have expressed her condolences when a senior actor died, people said.
Ramya was absent from the funeral of farmers leader KS Puttannaiah who strived hard for her victory in the Lok Sabha election and from the voting of the Lok Sabha by-election.

Integrity of electoral process severely compromised, Cong to soon launch movement: CWC
New Delhi (PTI): The Congress Working Committee met here on Friday and adopted a resolution alleging the integrity of the entire electoral process was being severely compromised against which the party would soon launch a movement.
In the resolution of the top body of the Congress, the party said free and fair elections is a Constitutional mandate that was being called into "serious question by the partisan functioning of the Election Commission".
The CWC, which met amid the ongoing Winter Session of Parliament, said the session has been a washout so far because of the Narendra Modi government's "stubborn refusal" to have an immediate discussion on three pressing national issues -- "the recent revelations regarding corruption by a business group, and the violence in Manipur and Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal".
Asked why the Congress Working Committee (CWC) resolution does not name the business group, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said, "The answer is the Adani group".
"The CWC believes the integrity of the entire electoral process is being severely compromised. Free and fair elections is a Constitutional mandate that is being called into serious question by the partisan functioning of the Election Commission.
"Increasing sections of society are becoming frustrated and deeply apprehensive. The Congress will take these up these public concerns as a national movement," the resolution stated.
Addressing a joint press conference along with Ramesh and Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera, party general secretary, organisation, K C Venugopal said the party discussed the political situation in the country for four-and-half hours and adopted the resolution.
He said the CWC has decided to constitute internal committees to look into electoral performance and organisational matters.
About the Assembly polls results in Maharashtra, Venugopal said the electoral outcome in the state was "beyond normal understanding and it appears to be a clear case of targeted manipulation".
