Bengaluru, May 6: As the voting day is just six days ahead for the Karnataka Assembly election, political parties have been engaging in mudslinging on each other. Interestingly, this election has gained much curiosity as social media is playing a major role in campaigning and bullying others. Majorly, Twitter is the most popular platform to make comments and attacks. No party is lagging behind in utilizing the social media. Most importantly, both Congress and BJP have been indulging in verbal duals through Twitter. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah have personally engaging in Twitter war.

Today, BJP IT cell head Amith Malaviya has become a laughing stock because of a post tweeted by him on former Congress chief minister S Nijalingappa.  In a hurry to comment, Amith Malaviya has tweeted on May 5 as “Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been exposing the fake love of Congress leaders towards dalits. Modi has been describing how Nehru-Gandhi family had treated Ambedkar and Ninjalingappa, he tweeted.

Besides spelling Karnataka former chief minister Nijalingappa’s name as ‘Ninjalingappa’, Malaviya has done another blunder terming Nijalingappa as a dalit leader and thus he has become a laughing stock. For this tweet, Kannadigas have attacked Amith Malaviya.

“What Ninja? Are an IT Cell head? Instead of WhatsApp, Google Search could help you. Amith don’t believe all in WhatsApp”, tweeted Srujana.

Another person tweeted as “they are not dalit and his name was not ‘Ninja-Lingappa”. However, another posted a photo of Ninja fighter with a sword in his hand.

Jammu (PTI): Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah left for Jammu on early Friday to take stock of the situation following last night's failed drone attack by Pakistan.

India on Thursday night neutralised Pakistan military's attempt to hit military stations in Jammu, Pathankot, Udhampur and some other locations with missiles and drones as tensions soared between the two countries amid fears of a wider military conflict.

"Driving to Jammu now to take stock of the situation after last night's failed Pakistani drone attack directed at Jammu city and other parts of the division," Abdullah said in a post on X.

He also said the government will review the decision to shut schools on Monday.

The situation at the time will determine if the closure is extended and, if so, for how long, the chief minister said.

Jammu and Kashmir Education Minister Sakina Itoo on Thursday ordered the closure of schools for the next two days in view of the prevailing situation.

Sirens and numerous explosions were reported in Akhnoor, Samba, Baramulla and Kupwara and several other places on Thursday night.

After the Indian military foiled the Pakistani attempts, the defence ministry said India remains "fully prepared to defend its sovereignty and ensure the safety of its people".
