Bengaluru, May 6: Forgetting that he is the Prime Minister of the country, Narendra Modi is disrespecting the others and speaking without etiquette, said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

Speaking at the Meet the Press at the Press Club here on Sunday, the CM said that “we too have respect for Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister of the country. But when he disrespect others and speak nonsense without any etiquette, we have to give answer in the same manner. Shouldn’t we, he asked.

Modi does not know how to respect former deputy prime minister and senior leader LK Advani and former finance minister Yashwanth Sinha. In the last Lok Sabha election, Modi, who had asked former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda to old age home, is expressing his love on Deve Gowda to get political mileage during election time which is ridiculous, he said.

The party high command will decide who is the next chief minister. There is no difference between KPCC president Dr G Parameshwar and himself. In this election, the party would come to power once again, he exuded confidence.

Bengaluru: The Advocates' Association of Bengaluru has formally requested the Chief Justice of Karnataka High Court, Justice NV Anjaria, to suspend live streaming of court proceedings temporarily. This follows recent controversies stemming from remarks made by Justice Sreeshanand during hearings, which were broadcasted live.

The association's letter, signed by President Vivek Subba Reddy, General Secretary T.G. Ravi, and Treasurer Harisha M.T., highlights that certain statements made by the judge have sparked nationwide discussions and gone viral, leading to significant public and professional backlash. The statements have particularly affected younger and female advocates, leading to concerns over the treatment of members of the Bar by judges.

The Advocates' Association expressed that these remarks have not only damaged the public image of the judiciary but also hurt the sentiments of lawyers. Although Justice Sreeshanand is commended for his integrity and judgments, the association emphasised that his side remarks are undermining his positive work.

In their letter, the association has urged for a temporary halt to live streaming until there is proper sensitization on the nature of statements made in open courts. They believe this step is necessary to prevent further damage to the judiciary's reputation.

The association hopes for immediate action on the matter.
