Priyank Kharge dares BL Santosh to topple Karnataka government in one month
Rural Development Minister Priyank Kharge has responded to BJP leader B.L. Santosh's claims about Congress leaders being in contact with him. Kharge issued a challenge, giving Santosh one month to attempt to topple the government and prove his allegations.
Taking to Twitter, Minister Kharge challenged Santosh, stating that he was not giving just one day but an entire month for him to demonstrate whether it's possible to destabilize or shake their government.
Kharge further challenged the BJP to select and present the Leader of the Legislature Party and the Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly within a week. He questioned whether the BJP had the courage and strength to accept this challenge.
Critiquing the BJP's delay in appointing leaders, Kharge pointed out that 100 days had passed since their government was formed, during which they have initiated numerous people-centric projects and decisions. In contrast, the BJP has not been able to fill three vacant leadership positions, including Leader of the Opposition, State President, and Leader of the Legislative Council. He questioned whether the BJP's inability to appoint leaders indicated political bankruptcy, particularly considering their earlier criticism of the government's five guarantee programs.

11 more bodies retrieved from Arunachal accident site
Itanagar (PTI): Eleven more bodies were retrieved on Saturday from the deep gorge in Arunachal Pradesh's Anjaw district, where a mini-truck on which 22 labourers from Assam were travelling fell, an official said.
With this, 17 bodies have been recovered from the accident site, Anjaw's deputy commissioner Milo Kojin said.
He said three more bodies will be brought out on Sunday.
The operation, being conducted by a joint team of the NDRF and Army, resumed at 6 am.

"The retrieval process was extremely difficult because of the treacherous terrain, and the gorge is very deep," Kojin said.
The operation was suspended around 4 pm due to low visibility and will be resumed on Sunday morning, he said.
"One person is still missing, and a search operation will be carried out tomorrow," he added.
The accident happened on the evening of December 8, around 40 km from Hayuliang towards Chaglagam in the district. On the evening of December 10, one survivor managed to climb out of the gorge and reach a nearby Border Roads Task Force (BRTF) labour camp, following which the authorities were alerted.
Six bodies were recovered from the gorge on Friday and handed over to their families on Saturday.
