Siddaramaiah is a 'terrorist': Karnataka BJP chief Nalin Kumar Kateel
Mangaluru: The State BJP President, MP Nalin Kumar Kateel responded to Siddaramaiah’s statements that equated RSS with the Taliban and said, “I feel that Siddaramaiah is a terrorist.”
Addressing the media in the city on Wednesday, he said, “Siddaramaiah is in an unhealthy state with the Congress. When he is in such an unhealthy state, he issues such statements.”
“Siddaramaiah’s is the Taliban culture. When Siddaramaiah was the Chief Minister of the state, a maximum number of killings have taken place. Prashant Poojary, Sharath Madivala, Deepak Rao, and Madikeri’s Kuttappa were killed in the Dakshina Kannada district. During his tenure, 24 Hindu youths were murdered. A woman who had gone to the ATM was also assaulted. A female college-going student was murdered in Sullia. All of this has occurred during the time of Siddaramaiah’s governance. His is the Taliban culture. That is why I have said that Siddaramaiah is a terrorist”, Nalin stated.
“During Siddaramaiah’s governance maximum number of murders, extortion, rampant cow killings used to occur. Then, what moral ground does he hold to talk about the RSS?” Nalin Kumar questioned.

K’taka cabinet approves cricket matches at M. Chinnaswamy stadium: Reports
Belagavi: The state cabinet under the Chairmanship of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has reportedly given its nod to permit cricket matches at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, subject to certain conditions.
The decision is learnt to have been taken after a meeting held at the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha here on Thursday.
Reports indicate that Home Minister Dr G. Parameshwara has been directed to formulate rules along with a referendum to hold a cricket match at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
The cabinet’s approval comes subject to conditions, considering the report of Justice D’Cunha, which was prepared after the stampede.
The June 4 stampede during the celebrations for RCB’s maiden IPL title killed 11 people, which raised serious questions over the stadium's capability to host large-scale events.
Will RCB be playing at their home ground next year?
Stating that the “state had learned from the tragedy,” Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Monday, December 08, dismissed the talks about shifting Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s home games out of the city.
He also said that the Chinnaswamy Stadium is the “pride of Bengaluru and Karnataka” and vowed that IPL fixtures will continue to be played there.
On Wednesday, Shivakumar met the newly elected KSCA president Venkatesh Prasad at the Circuit House in Belagavi and reiterated that cricket matches, including IPL fixtures, will not be shifted out of Bengaluru.
“We have no intention of stopping matches at Chinnaswamy Stadium, but crowd control measures and the Michael D. Cunha committee’s recommendations will be implemented in phases,” he told reporters.
Shivakumar said the government is committed to promoting cricket and supporting fans while safeguarding the state’s reputation, adding that Prasad had sought the government’s cooperation and agreed to work jointly on the issue.
