Madikeri: Ramanath Rai challenges Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat to contest against him


Daijiworld Media Network - Madikeri (MS)

Madikeri, Dec 16: "If he has got guts, let Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat contest against me in the next election," challenged Ramanath Rai, minister of forest. He was speaking to the reporters at Virajpete on Friday, December 15.

Rai ridiculed Bhat by saying, "Prabhakar Bhat will lose his deposit if he contests election. He thinks that he is of very high status in the society. But people of our locality know his true nature,"


Ramanath Rai, Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat

"The money given by devotees to the temple should be utilized for the development of temple. Education department provides grant for the lunch of students of aided schools. Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat wants money instead of lunch for his school," he scorned and defended the stoppage of temple aid that was being given to the school run by Prabhakar Bhat.

    BJP has set a trap for Minister Ramanath Rai. First by character assassination then connecting him to minority appeasement.
    I would rather ask Mr.Ramanath Rai not respond to the BJP's questionnaire which is not related to the nation's interest. Instead of this he should counter two questions related to 'development' which party has promised to the citizens of India in the general assembly elections.
    The Congress party must show tolerant and more aggressive in opposition with evidence in the coming days.
    The party of difference shining India is good in diverging from real issues. So Pakistan, Love Jihad, Ayodhya, Ahmed Patel are the few examples which were used in recently held Gujarat elections.

    To the supporters of Cong and Rai . Despite being a Muslim , I have more respect for K Bhat for the simple reason, he never changed his stand, nor ideology nor words. On the contrary, I have lost respect for Rai who boasted the arrest of Bhat if he wins , to date kuch ukaada nahin .Despite being in power. He has fooled the muslim community and he is trying it again. All he did was stopped meals of the poor children in Bhats school. Allah wont forgive him for that. Its now a sign of 'mardhanigi' . So now with this new boast of his, What does he expect us to be,? impressed? We have to show him his place in the next elections.

    It's a secular world where all are equally treated.
    Rai is just inviting a Batru Vs Bantru duel, a polarisation he knows he can win due to sheer numbers. This is the secular ideals of the grand old party and most political parties.
    But why invite now? Why not in last election? Then RR was sure of winning no matter what.

    “The money given by devotees to the temple should be utilized for the development of temple. “

    As if Rai doesn’t know that it goes to State Govt coffers and then to all “bhagyas.”
    Temple priests are getting peanuts and most of the temples are hardly maintained.
    does this happen to other religion (Church, mosque, etc) moneis given by devotees? answer that first.

    Mr.Rai, don’t try to fool the people. Please remember, during school children protest against stoppage of temple aide for mid-day meal program, you told that you have not involved in this & not given any instruction to the authority. But now it is very clear that you only ask the authority to stop the temple aide. Now come to the point, few month back during DK violence there was an allegation that dist. In charge minister involved in these incidents & interfered in police dept work. But you denied that allegation. In such a case how we can trust your statement.

Even smaller cities than Mangalore like Shimoga, Hassan, Davengere etc have over taken Mangalore in terms of development. Most of the young generation people from Mangalore are migrating to bigger cities like Bangalore for employment. Really dont know when our Mangalore will develop.

    MR. RAI is fooling people. Prabhakar bhat is cultural promoting leader of RSS agenda inciting communal polarisation. Bhat creates atmosphere of polarisation and BJP (political wing of RSS) step into advantage in elections. It is strategy. hence Bhat cannot contest elections. Rai is political leader who cannot spread the polarisation hence can contest election

    If Rai is so confident abut his constituency , he has to give it to Siddarmiah who is in Dilemma from where to contest.

    BJP is loosing Bantwal because of no strong candidates and always imported Candidates. If Kalladka Bhat decides to contest, for sure, it will political retirement to Ramanath Rai and Bantwal will remain calm as communal elements will think twice before disturbing peace. KPB is like what Yogi is to UP. Comavadhis will put thier tail in between and keep low if KPB comes to power.

    He may not contest election, he has already damaged DK in a big way by his hate speeches that instigated not so good harmony among religions. If people practice religion privately and give up their hero's of religion agenda, DK will be top region in India. DK has every ingredient needed for a top region in the world starting from education, health care and nature. Communal religion based agenda by politics is ruining it like a cancer that is spreading to make a backward place of Africa.
