Mysuru: Out of five states, where elections were taken place, the Congress is expected to win in the four states. As these elections will have an impact on the Lok Sabha polls of 2019, it is not possible for Narendra Modi to become Prime Minister once again.

 Speaking to reporters at his residence in TK Layout in the city on Saturday, he said the Congress is expected to win the polls of four states out of five. Mizoram is expected to have a hung assembly. This election would affect the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. The Narendra Modi government, for any reason, will not come to power in the 2019 election.

"No corruption incidents took place during the term of our government. We have maintained financial balance during our government. When the BJP was in power, there was no financial balance. Despite knowing this, the BJP leaders are leveling accusations," Siddaramaiah expressed displeasure over the BJP leaders.

Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.

The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).

"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.

The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.

The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.

Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.

They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.

Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
