Media speculations: Dr. G. Parameshwar
Bengaluru: Though the Jarkiholi brothers have clarified that they will not destabilize the government, a section of media houses is fueling speculations; stated Deputy Chief Minister Dr. G Parameshwar.
He was speaking to reporters after visiting the residence of former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda in Padmanabhanagar on Thursday.
The Jarkiholi brothers could express before us if they were upset. Besides, Minister DK Shivakumar has not intervened in the politics of Belgavi. He might have done his department’s work. If at all DK Shivakumar intervened, we will handle this through talks; he said.
“I have come here to greet the former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda. We did not discuss any political matters. Only media is fueling speculations,” the DCM added.

KKR hammer DC by eight wickets as Allen smashes unbeaten ton
New Delhi (PTI): Finn Allen smashed a 47-ball 100 not out as Kolkata Knight Riders thrashed Delhi Capitals by eight wickets to register their fourth win on the trot in the IPL, here on Friday.
Opting to bowl, KKR spinners led by Sunil Narine strangled Delhi Capitals in the middle overs on a tacky surface to restrict them to 142/8.
Pathum Nissanka struck a quick 50 (29 balls; 5x4, 3x6) but Delhi lost momentum after his dismissal, scoring just 11 runs between the 12th and 16th overs as Anukul Roy (2/31), Kartik Tyagi (2/25) and Sunil Narine (1/17) applied the brakes.
Ashutosh Sharma’s late 28-ball 39 (3x4, 3x6), gave Delhi some respite.
In reply, Allen, who came in as Impact Sub for Varun Chakravarthy, smashed 10 sixes and five fours to make it a lopsided chase as KKR sealed the win in just 14.2 overs.
Brief Scores:
Delhi Capitals 142/8 in 20 overs (Pathum Nissanka 50, Ashutosh Sharma 39; Anukul Roy 2/31, Kartik Tyagi 2/25). Kolkata Knight Riders 147/2 in 14.2 overs (Finn Allen 100 not out).
