I am still doubtful about EVMs: Siddaramaiah
Shivamogga by-polls: Former CM campaigns for Madhu Bangarappa at Byndoor
Byndoor, Oct 25: Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has arrived at Nagur in Byndoor to campaign for Congress-JDS alliance candidate Madhu Bangarappa, who is contesting from Shivamogga Lok Sabha by-election.
Voters in the coastal part did not come along with us in the assembly elections. What is our mistake? Many of the schemes implemented in the state by our government have not been implemented by any state governments. Does the stomach of the poor fill by Hindutva arguments? "asked former CM Siddaramaiah.
As an MP, Yeddyurappa never visited Byndoor. Do you want to vote for such people? Former MLA Gopal Poojary brought Rs 2,000 crore for this constituency. What more would he have done as a legislator? Despite that, he has been defeated. I still doubt the electronic voting machines," he said.
Is Yeddyurappa one and only Hindu. Am I not a Hindu? The BJP is misleading people in the name of Hindutva. Do not fall prey to it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said that he will provide employment to two crore youths. Has anyone been employed? Narendra Modi is misleading people in the name of Man Ki Baat.
The Central Government has not fulfilled any of the promises it made. On what basis Yeddyurappa come here and seek votes. Atrocities on Dalits, Backward Classes and minorities have increased since the BJP came to power in the center. I do not understand why the coastal people have voted for the BJP. Should your baby calves come to the crib, should the girls safely join the house? Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has said that false promises have to be made to win elections. What else you want," Siddaramaiah questioned.
District in-charge minister Jayamala and other leader welcomed Siddaramaiah at Shiroor Helipad.

CEO’s Rs 14 lakh Louis Vuitton dog suitcase triggers social media debate
New Delhi: An Indian CEO has triggered widespread debate on social media after reportedly spending Rs 14 lakh on a Louis Vuitton suitcase designed for his dog. Ajay Thakore, CEO of Doctor Multimedia, shared a video on Instagram showcasing the extravagant purchase, which has since drawn mixed reactions.
In the video, Thakore is seen entering a Louis Vuitton store, stating, "I think my dog has something to pick up." He then reveals the "Bone Trunk," a bone-shaped, hard-shell suitcase complete with a varnished wooden tray and two bowls. The video’s caption read, "Aspen's always spending money like there's no tomorrow. $20k Louis Vuitton bone trunk."
The post quickly went viral, with many users expressing shock and disbelief. Some criticized the CEO’s indulgence, questioning the morality of spending such a large sum on a pet accessory when pressing issues like poverty and animal welfare exist. Comments ranged from disbelief to sharp criticism, with one user remarking, "Imagine how far $20k would go at an animal rescue." Others viewed it as a reflection of societal excess, calling it a "grotesque illustration of what's wrong in society."
However, Thakore also found support from some users, who defended his right to spend his wealth as he pleased. One commenter noted the irony of criticism coming from people who indulge in expensive gadgets, writing, "It's funny how many condemn this spending yet think nothing of buying an $800 iPhone without considering charity."
