Name Haj Bhawan after Abdul Kalam: BSY
Bengaluru, June 24: Former chief minister and Opposition Leader in the Legislative Assembly BS Yeddyurappa said that instead of naming the Hajj Bhavan after Tipu Sultan, let it be named after former president Dr APJ Abdul Kalam.
After releasing the Kannada version the four years achievement of the NDA government ‘Shuddha Nade- Sukta Vikas’ at the party office at Malleshwaram here on Sunday, Yeddyurappa said that if they wanted to change the name of Hajj Bhavan, it is better to name the Hajj Bhavan after former president late Dr APJ Abdul Kalam.
The party workers have brought out this book to educate the people on the achievements of the Modi government in the last four years. The UPA which ruled the country for ten years had seen more corruption and failed on all fronts. But in the NDA government, the economy of the country was safe and growing, defence system is strong and relationship with international community is also good, he claimed.
When NDA came to power, the BJP was in power in only six states. But now, the party is in power in 20 states. Without having guts to face Narendra Modi, all opposition parties came together. But the BJP would not budge for their unity. The pro-people programmes of the central government would definitely inspire the party in the state. So, the party workers have listed out the achievements of the central government and people would be educated about it, he said.
“HD Kumaraswamy had given lot of assurances before the election. So, 37 JDS MLAs were elected. He had promised of implementing all assurances within 24 hours of coming to power. But nothing has been done. I have asked my party workers to wait and watch. Moreover, we have been giving cooperation in terms of farmers issues. But the earlier government and the present government have taken wrong steps in the farmers issue”, he said.
Let DK Shivakumar disclose all the diaries he has. Who is obstructing him from doing it? He is making lame excuses just to cover-up his mistakes, he alleged.
When asked about BJ Puttaswamy’s outburst, Yeddyurappa said that he was telling that he would resign from the party because of his displeasure. He would speak to him, he said.
MLA Aravind Limbavali, MLC N Ravi Kumar, BJP assistant spokesperson AH Anand, Yuva Morcha general secretary Thammesh Gowda and others were present.

2 killed, 5 injured in firing after mob storms CRPF camp in Manipur's Bishnupur: State home minister
Imphal (PTI): Manipur Home Minister Govindas Konthoujam on Tuesday said two persons were killed and five others injured in firing after a mob stormed a CRPF camp in Bishnupur district.
A large number of youths and women held a protest against the killing of two children in a bomb attack by suspected militants in Moirang Tronglaobi area earlier in the day, he said.
The protesters stormed the CRPF camp near Gelmol, a few 100 metres from the bomb attack site, burnt vehicles and vandalised properties there, he said.
"I had urged the protesters not to enter the CRPF camp and to allow security forces to focus on conducting an operation to apprehend those involved in the bomb attack," the minister said.
But the demonstrators did not pay heed to the appeal.
"They stormed the CRPF camp, burnt vehicles and vandalised portions of the camp, leading to firing by security personnel. They fired either in self-defence or in anger. Two persons, unfortunately, died in the firing, while five others sustained bullet injuries," the state home minister said.
