Udupi, July 21: Start preparing for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections by compensating the flaws in the assembly polls. Rahul Gandhi must be made prime minister by getting 20 seats in Karnataka.

He was speaking at a KPCC office bearer and District Congress presidents meeting.

“Despite giving good governance, schemes; somewhere we stumbled. No charges of corruption against our previous government have also been heard. We gave good governance. We were confident of winning the 125 places,” he said.

Those mistakes should not be repeated this time. Entire country’s responsibility has come on young leader Rahul Gandhi. His words were more relevant in Parliament yesterday. He came down heavily on Modi government. All of us need his administration.

We had created booth-level committees in the last assembly elections last time. This time, these committees should be used more efficiently.

“The new presidents should create new committees and share the work with everyone. Each activist of the Congress will get a place in the party. Thus everyone should work for the party,” Parameshwar said.

Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.

The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.

"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.

The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.

There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.

Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.

The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
