War of words between Siddaramaiah and CT Ravi on Twitter over Bharat Ratna for Savarkar
Bengaluru: Karnataka Tourism Minister CT Ravi and Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah engaged in a twitter war of words on Saturday after Ravi slammed Siddaramaiah for his remarks on Savarkar alleging that he was a conspirator of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination.
Ravi on Saturday asked Siddaramaiah if he was ‘mentally handicapped’ or does he have any idea of history. Ravi also added that Savarkar was a nationalist.
Ravi tweeted in the backdrop of former CM’s remarks that Savarkar was a conspirator in Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination and conferring Bharat Ratna as proposed by the central government was wrong.
“You have accused Nationalist Veer Savarkar as Conspirator in the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. Are You mentally handicapped after loosing Chief Minister's post? Do You have any idea of History? Why don't You visit Cellular Jail! I will sponsor Your trip” (SIC) Ravi tweeted.
In his reply, Siddaramaiah took a dig at CT Ravi and added that when one is not in power, he drink and drives and kill innocent people. He was referring to a road accident involving CT Ravi’s car earlier this year.
In another tweet Siddaramaiah added that if India confers Bharat Ratna for someone who is a conspirator in Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination that it should at least give Rajyotsava Award to those who kill innocent people while drunk driving, once again referring to the same road accident involving Ravi’s car.

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
