Mysuru: KPCC President D.K. Shivakumar, who is locked in a fierce battle with Siddaramaiah for the Chief Minister's post, left for Delhi from his residence in Bengaluru today. The AICC had already called Siddaramaiah to Delhi.
Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah’s brother Siddegowda speaking to reporters here said, "Siddaramaiah will join us in the upcoming town fair and will perform Veera Kunita as the chief minister of the state.” Siddegowda emphasized that no one else possesses the same skill and expertise in Veera Kunitha as Siddaramaiah. He further highlighted his dedication and determination to see tasks through to completion, a trait he has displayed since childhood.

When asked about the possibility of DK Shivakumar being chosen as the chief minister, Gowda expressed his support by stating, "DK Shivakumar should also assume the role of Chief Minister. He deserves to be the CM, and I believe he will eventually hold that position. Siddaramaiah himself will lead the way and ensure Shivakumar's appointment as CM. Let Siddaramaiah serve as the Chief Minister this time," he said.

Kolkata, Nov 30: Two more Hindu priests were arrested in Bangladesh, ISKCON Kolkata spokesperson Radharamn Das claimed on Saturday.
Speaking to PTI, Radharamn said, "I have received information that two more ISKCON monks have been arrested by police in Bangladesh."
In a post on X on Friday night, Radharamn said, "In the meantime, bad news has come: two devotees who went with prasad for Chinmaya Prabhu were arrested on their way back to the temple, and Chinmaya prabhu's secretary is also missing. Please pray for them."
Earlier on Friday, Radharamn had posted, "Another Brahmachari, Sri Shyam Das Prabhu, was arrested by Chattogram Police today."
"Does he look like a terrorist? #FreeISKCONMonks Bangladesh. The arrest of innocent #ISKCON brahmacharis are deeply shocking & disturbing," Radharamn posted on X on Saturday. His comments comes comes in the backdrop of unconfirmed reports of arrest of three more ISKCON monks, days after the arrest of spiritual leader Chinmay Das.
Chinmay Das, who also served as a spokesperson for Bangladesh Sammilita Sanatani Jagran Jote, was arrested at Dhaka's Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on Monday while en route to Chattogram to attend a rally. He was denied bail and sent to jail on Tuesday by the Chattogram Sixth Metropolitan Magistrate Court.
Historically, Hindus made up approximately 22 per cent of Bangladesh's population during the 1971 Liberation War.
The Hindu population, once a substantial demographic in Bangladesh, has experienced a significant decline in recent decades, with the minority community now comprising only around 8 per cent of the country's total population.
This drop is largely attributed to a combination of socio-political marginalisation, exodus and sporadic violence over the years.
