Will not worry about BJP’s crores rupees lure: Minister DK Shivakumar
Bengaluru, December 4: “Let the BJP people meet another hundred people and lure our MLAs with hundreds of crores. We will not worry about it”, said Water Resources Minister DK Shivakumar.
Speaking to reporters at his residence at Sadashivanagar here on Tuesday, the Minister said that an audio of a person named Sujith on ‘Operation Lotus’ was circulated in the media. He was not my PA and he was the PA of brother Sriramulu. If he was not the personal assistant of Sriramulu, why he was with the BJP leader? They should disclose whom did MLA Ashwath Narayan meet three days ago and why did Gali Janardhan Reddy go to Jindal hospital, he challenged.
Some BJP leaders do not know anything about it. If Jagadish Shettar and CT Ravi have any doubts, let them give complaints and demand enquiry into it. But there will be no smoke without fire, he said.
Let the Truth be known. If you read VB and like VB, please be a VB Supporter and Help us deliver the Truth to one and all.
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.
