Belagavi: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah addressing after inaugurating the historic ‘Jai Bapu, Jai Bhim and Jai Samvidhan,’campaign called on to reverse the Bharatiya Janata Party’s imposition of the RSS ideology among Indians, which is hostile to the Constitution. He presided over the inauguration program of the historic event at Belagavi on Monday, January 21.

Siddaramaiah accused the BJP of systematically creating divisions in society, weakening the country by creating communal and social rifts. "Gandhi and Ambedkar are our guiding lights," he declared, asserting that the teachings of these leaders must be upheld to defeat such divisive forces.

He furthermore claimed that, “when the Constitution was implemented, the BJP and family burned Ambedkar's portrait and the Constitution. This country, the people of this country will never forgive or forget this.”

“Different languages, castes, religions are the strength of India. The BJP and family hates Gandhi and Ambedkar. We will carry forward their ideals and expand them across generations,” he added.

He reminded people that safeguarding the Constitution is essential, as it, in turn, will protect the rights and dignity of all citizens.

The Chief Minister emphasized that ideological victories matter more than electoral wins. He pointed to his government’s policies designed to fulfill the values of Gandhi and Ambedkar, noting, "We have injected over ₹52,000 crore directly into people's accounts, strengthening the financial foundation of the state’s citizens."

New York/Washington, May 7 (PTI): US President Donald Trump on Tuesday said India has “agreed” to drop its high tariffs “to nothing”.

“I mean, India as an example, has one of the highest tariffs in the world. We’re not going to put up with that, and they’ve agreed already to drop it. They’ll drop it to nothing. They’ve already agreed. They would have never done that for anybody else but me,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.

Trump and visiting Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke to reporters as they met in the Oval Office to discuss the US-Canada trade.

“So we’re going to put down some numbers and we’re going to say our country is open for business and they’re going to come in and they’re going to pay for the privilege of being able to shop in the United States of America. It’s very simple. It’s very simple,” he added.

In the past, Trump has called India “tariff king” and a “big abuser”.

Last month, Trump had said that negotiations with India over a bilateral trade deal are “coming along great” and he thinks “we’ll have a deal with India”.
