Turuvekere: Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Indian National Congress, recently made a speech in Karnataka, attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not speaking about the state during his visit there. Rahul Gandhi criticized the PM, stating that he only talks about himself and his achievements instead of addressing the issues faced by the people of Karnataka.

Speaking at a public meeting in the town of Chikkamagaluru, Rahul Gandhi said, “You come to Karnataka, but don’t speak about Karnataka. You speak about yourself. You speak about your achievements. But you don’t speak about the people of Karnataka. You don’t speak about the farmers of Karnataka. You don’t speak about the unemployed youth of Karnataka.”

Rahul Gandhi’s speech comes at a time when the state is facing a number of issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic, drought, and unemployment. The Congress leader accused the BJP-led government in the state of failing to address these issues and called for more investment in the agriculture sector and the creation of new jobs.

He further added, “If you come to Karnataka, you have to talk about Karnataka. You have to talk about the problems of Karnataka. You cannot come here and just talk about yourself.”

The Congress leader’s comments were aimed at Prime Minister Modi, who recently visited Karnataka and made several speeches highlighting the achievements of his government. During his visit, the Prime Minister inaugurated several projects, including a new airport terminal and a highway.

Rahul Gandhi’s speech has sparked a political debate in the state, with BJP leaders criticizing his comments and accusing him of playing politics. The Congress, on the other hand, has defended Rahul Gandhi’s speech, stating that he was highlighting the concerns of the people of Karnataka.

In conclusion, Rahul Gandhi’s speech in Karnataka has once again highlighted the political differences between the Congress and the BJP. It remains to be seen how the people of Karnataka will react to his comments and whether they will have any impact on the upcoming state elections.

In response to escalating concerns over suspected Naxalite activity, the Anti-Naxal Force (ANF) has intensified combing operations in the dense expanse of Koojimalai forest. Reports indicate a surge in sightings of individuals believed to be associated with Maoist groups, prompting ANF jawans to bolster their presence in the region.

On Thursday, yet another sighting of a suspected Naxalite was reported from a heavily wooded area within the forest. Eyewitness accounts from a worker in the rubber plantation suggest the presence of an unfamiliar woman in the vicinity, igniting efforts to locate her amidst the dense foliage.

The ANF has wasted no time in responding to these reports, deploying teams to conduct thorough searches across the Ainekidu and Koojimale estate areas. Sources within the ANF have hinted at the possibility of lingering Naxalite presence along the fringes of the Pushpagiri forest sanctuary, underscoring the importance of vigilance in this region.

Confirming the gravity of the situation, ANF sources have acknowledged receiving multiple complaints regarding the presence of unidentified individuals in the Sampaje-Koojimalai corridor. This surge in activity has prompted the ANF to fortify its operations, ensuring a proactive approach to combat any potential threats posed by Naxalite elements.

As the ANF remains steadfast in its mission to maintain peace and security in the region, residents of Koojimalai and surrounding areas can take solace in the concerted efforts being made to address the looming specter of Naxalism. With continued vigilance and collaboration between law enforcement agencies and local communities, the menace of Naxalite insurgency can be effectively curtailed, safeguarding the tranquility of this pristine forest enclave.
