Udupi: Congress will take action against rebel candidates: Oscar

Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (RJP)

Udupi, Dec 13: Rajya Sabha MP Oscar Fernandes on Sunday December 13 said his party Congress has decided to take action against rebel candidates from the party contesting the upcoming MLC elections, namely former MP Jayaprakash Hegde and Harikrishna Bantwal.

Oscar was speaking during the prepartory 'Chappara Muhurat' rituals ahead of the Paryaya in Udupi to be held on January 18.

"As per the Constitution, only the candidates who have been endorsed by the party belong to the party. Others candidates do not belong to the party," Oscar said.

"Anyone can stand for elections. But the Constitution says that only the candidates chosen by the party are called party candidates. Those who go against the rule do not belong to the party. The party has already decided to take acttion against the rebel candidates," Oscar said.

Speaking about National Herald issue, Oscar said, "The union government has transferred the officer who investigated the case. The accusation is not against the government but against us. Instead of persecuting us, the union government, which won by majority, should work towards looking after the interests of the people. I am proud to be the trustee of National Herald which was founded by Jawaharlal Nehru during independence."

Minister Vinay Kumar Sorake who also spoke during the occasion said, "Pratapchandra Shetty was chosen only after taking the legislators and block Congress presidents into confidence. The chief minister Siddaramaiah and Congress state president Parameshwar tried to convince Jayaprakash Hegde and Harikrishna Bantwal to withdraw the nominations. But they did not listen and still remain in the fray. Parameshwar has decided to take appropriate action against them, and questioned why at all they contested as rebel candidates."

    Already the congress is weak in Karavali Belt. Sidelining JPH will only make is worse.
    JPH is a person who does work unlike other congress or BJP elected representatives.
    such decisions of so called 'high command' will wipe out congress. If that happens, Oscar will be directly responsible for the downfall of congress.

    We call him Asker, that's why he say "ask her ". He was Minister for " Road Transport and Highway" in previous govt. what he did , we can see lots of accident from Bhatkal to mangalore. At least near to his constituency he could have speed up the work. They don't know pain of the family who lost their family members. Now he is destroying the party by removing active politician.

    Throw Oscar out of Congress. He has done nothing good to his constituency. Except pleasing his Bosses, and trying fulfil selfish desires. Except ribbon cuttings

    Keeping such people in the Congress will weaken the congress furthermore. An undue advantage to the Communal forces.

    If Oscar sir reads this article, I mean comments people have put here. He would understand what is the action people have taken and what opinion people have on him. With his contacts with Central congress leaders, during UPA1 and UPA2, he could have done Miracle to DK and UDUPI, or at least to UDUPI. I don't see any good work done by him in recent years.

    Mr.Oscarji,whether you take action or not,eligible and sincere candidates always go for winning.Not like you.You are sticking to your chair and power without doing anything either for the party or for the state or at least towards your own constituency.Shame on you.Who will care about your action.You yourself is a liability to the party.This is the high time to retire from the active politics and take rest or go for penance and pave the way for active,sincere,honest,hard worker and the young people to work for the party and country.Nobody is bothered about your threatening of taking action against the rebels.Who are you to take action.This is democratic country.First of all your high command should take action against you and then think about others.CHAMCHA.

    Akash,

    I met Oscar first time in 1979...at that time he was not holding any political post..just former member of Udupi town municipality(1972-1977) and General Secretary of District Youth Congress ...he was more a social worker than a politician...

    At that time nobody thought he will ever contest for any MLA/MP election...

    Now he is distributing party tickets like service bus booking agent...and people running behind him for tickets really looks funny for me...If I meet him, want to ask him if he was happy then or happy with his new avataar...

    Any way if God wishes nobody can dispose...

    Those who do not believe in party unity and leadership has no place in the party! No doubt JPH is a great performer and dedicated personality! But he need to respect the party he represents. He should remember he is ex-MP from Congress! As years pass by...people will realize who is opportunist! Any reputed person could be greedy with hidden agenda! Taste of power is such...can not blame only JPH or Congress or BJP...! same Sh*t but different smell!!!!

He is there for nothing. all mangaloreans and udupi people can see our airport and can see Kerala state having how many international airports, and all the MP's from kerala doing for their state and here Oscar doing for his name sake. Whenever there is any function he will be there in front for what reason nobody knows. he is in party over 35 years, al people can see the development in Udupi and Manga lore. shame on us to call this person is belongs to this Place.
