New Delhi: The National in charge of BJP’s Information and Technology Department, Amit Malviya was on Wednesday trolled by Twitter users after journalist Aadesh Rawal busted his claim regarding a journalist being turned out of Rahul Gandhi’s press conference.
Taking to his official Twitter handle, Amit had on Wednesday evening claimed that a veteran journalist was turned out of Rahul Gandhi’s press conference for asking a question.
Without naming the journalist Amit had claimed that the journalist has been covering the Congress party for the ‘longest time’ and is even accused of being sympathetic to them.
He further went on to question if this is the politics of love and tolerance Rahul Gandhi speaks of?
“Today, a veteran Congress beat journalist, who has been covering the party for the longest time, is even accused of being sympathetic to them, was turned out of Rahul Gandhi’s press conference, for merely asking a question. Is this the politics of love and tolerance RG speaks of?” he wrote in the tweet.

Replying to Amit’s tweet, journalist Aadesh Rawal said he was present in Rahul Gandhi’s press conference earlier in the day and said he had not come across any incident of any journalist being turned out of the press conference.
He further added that he spoke to his peers to know more about the incident but could not trace any truth to the claim.
“Amit Ji, I was present at the press conference. I even spoke to other friends and asked about any such incident. Nobody witnessed the incident where a journalist was turned out. It will be better if you can share more details about the incident” Aadesh wrote in Hindi.
Twitter users took note of the tweet from both Amit and Aadesh and started trolling Amit for his claim. Several users also urged Amit to respond to the Aadesh Rawal’s tweet with enough evidence to prove himself right.
अमित जी,मैं प्रेस कॉन्फ़्रेंस में मौजूद था। मैंने बाक़ी साथियों से पूछा है। किसी के सामने ऐसा कोई घटना किसी पत्रकार के साथ नहीं हुई। अगर आप इस मुद्दे पर और रोशनी डालेंगे तो अच्छा रहेगा... https://t.co/ItHRK1fTi6

Hassan (Karnataka) (PTI): Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday said that the Congress government led by him was ready to face the no-confidence motion if moved by the opposition during the legislature session from December 8.
With Deputy CM D K Shivakumar by his side, he reiterated that they would both abide by the high command's decision on the leadership issue.
"Let them (opposition) bring in a no-confidence motion or adjournment motion or any other motion. We are ready to face it. Ours is an open book, transparent government. We are ready to face anything," Siddaramaiah said in response to a question.
However, BJP state President B Y Vijayendra and Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly R Ashoka, clarified that the party, along with the JD(S) has not discussed or decided anything so far regarding moving a no-confidence motion against the government.

The winter session of the Karnataka legislature will begin in Belagavi, bordering Maharashtra, on December 8 and will go on till 19th of this month.
Not wanting to react to a question on the leadership issue, the CM said the Congress high command is very strong.
"D K Shivakumar and I will be committed to whatever the high command decides," he said.
Earlier in the day in Bengaluru, Shivakumar accompanied AICC Mallikarjun Kharge till airport from Vidhana Soudha, after paying tributes to B R Ambedkar on his 69th death anniversary, which had led to some speculation about possible discussion between the two on the leadership issue.
The power tussle within the ruling party had intensified amid speculation about a change in chief minister in the state, after the Congress government reached the halfway mark of its five-year term on November 20.
However, both the CM and Deputy CM had recently held breakfast meetings at each others residences, on the instructions of the high command, which is seen as a move to pause the leadership tussle between the two and to signal Siddaramaiah's continuation as the CM for the time being, especially ahead of the Belagavi legislature session.
