Party decides whether I must be there in cabinet or not: DKS
Bengaluru: Whether I should be there in the cabinet or hold any role of the party will be decided by the party High Command, said former minister and Congress leader DK Shivakumar.
Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said, "I have never been alone in the party. Being alone is not my identity. I had gone to visit temples after elections. Citing this, telling that I am not visible after elections is not a right thing."
I do not know why SR Patil resigned as KPCC president. He is a significant leader in the party. In South Karnataka, our (Vakkaligas) people are there. There Veerashivas are available. In the same way, all the people who have voted for us are available in the state. High Command will think about all these things. It is not possible to ignore Veerashaivas while forming the cabinet," DK Shivakumar added.

Davangere: Two policemen injured in stone pelting during Ganesha procession
Davangere: Reports state that two groups engaged in stone pelting at each other during Ganesha idol immersion ceremony in Davangere on Thursday. Two police personnel were injured in the incident.
Few days ago, two groups of youth engaged in verbal altercation regarding raising of a flag for Eid Milad celebration. On account of the clashes, police had heightened security for the Ganesha procession. Despite the additional security, stones were pelted at the procession, sources stated. Inspector Gururaj and constable Raghavendra were injured in the incident. The procession continued after the police brought the situation to control. However, the stone pelting resumed once again as the procession surged forwards.
Security has been tightened up in the area and all shops have been closed down by the police. The two police personnel, who were injured in the stone pelting, are undergoing treatment at a hospital.
