BJP is jealous of coalition government pro-people programmes: Kumaraswamy
‘I won’t talk to media’
Bengaluru, November 22: Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said that as BJP is jealous about the pro-people programmes like farm loan waiver, Badavara Bandhu and others of the coalition government, the BJP has been finding faults of his every work.
Launching the Badavara Bandhu programme here on Thursday, the Chief Minister said that the BJP people have been finding faults in every work of the coalition government and his every statement. The coalition government was ready to work for the welfare of the poor including the farmers due to which, it has announced the waiver of Rs 45,000 cr farm loans. In order to implement it effectively, the government has been talking to the nationalized banks and accumulating the resources. Even then, the BJP leaders have been misleading the people, he alleged. The farmers and the sugar factory owners have made agreements with each other for purchasing the sugarcane. But as per the agreement, the factory owners have not paid the farmers. So the problem was raised now. Without informing him the reason, they have been burning his effigy. What was the use of protest without bringing to his notice? Was it right, he asked.
“There is no need to learn from BS Yeddyurappa and other BJP leaders. People of the state are well aware of the fact that what happened during BJP administration. I am not escaping from anything. I would give answers to all BJP questions in the next Assembly Session”, he said.
‘I won’t speak to media’
“Media find mistake in my every act and speech. Whatever I speak, media misinterprets it. Even the small protest is being blown out of proportion against the state government. So, I have decided not to speak before the media in future. I would prefer to speak in only public programmes”.

Already banned: I&B minister Vaishnaw on 'Sarke Chunar' controversy
New Delhi, Mar 18 (PTI): A Samajwadi Party MP in Lok Sabha on Wednesday raised the issue of the controversial song "Sarke Chunar" Sanjay Dutt's "KD The Devil" and the government said it has already been banned.
Anand Bhadoria raised the issue during Question Hour and said unchecked content on OTT platforms and social media was a bad influence.
In his response, Union information and broadcasting minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the song has already been banned.
"A ban has been imposed on the song. The framers of Constitution placed certain reasonable restrictions, and we should function within those limits. Freedom of speech cannot be absolute, it has to be in the context of the society and culture,” Vaishnaw said.
"The way things are spreading rapidly today through digital medium, for the protection of the society, especially for the protection of children, women and deprived groups of the society, whatever hard actions should be taken, the government is ready to take them," he added.
The song, featuring Dutt and Nora Fatehi, was released on YouTube two days ago and quickly went viral for its shock value and lyrics that almost describe a sexual act. Since then, it has been the focus of outrage on social media and elsewhere.
