'Give work to all anchors': Woman protests outside Karnataka CM's house


Bengaluru, Aug 8 (IANS): A woman staged a flash sit-in protest in front of Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai's residence in R.T. Nagar area on Sunday, demanding that the state government must provide fair representation to all programme presenters/anchors in the state, instead of only two.

Girija was holding a placard, written in Kannada, which read that governments change, ministers change, officers are transferred, new singers are hired, musicians are hired and even Chief Ministers are replaced at will, but why do anchors of all government programmes remain the same for all programmes, year after year?

She told reporters that only two anchors - Aparna and Shankar Prakash - have been hired for all government programmes for the last two decades.

"Not a single programme is allotted to any other anchor in the state. There are at least 20 anchors working on a contract basis in Doordarshan and Akashwani, besides this there are several anchors available with Kannada and Culture Departments. None of them, including me, have got a single chance till date to anchor a programme that is organised by the state government," she alleged.

"How can the government allow monopoly of two anchors for the last two decades ignoring all anchors in the state?" she asked.

"Both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and former Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa's oft repeated words 'Sarve jana sukhino bhavantu (Let the people of the world be happy)' and 'Sarvarigu samapalu Sarvarigu samabalu' (Everybody is equal, Everyone gets equal share), respectively, for providing equal opportunities is never followed in the case of providing opportunities to us," she alleged.

Girija also rued that due to public programmes becoming scarce by the day ever since the pandemic broke in March last year, all anchors are facing several hardships and the state government must take a considerate view of her demand.

Police, who were present outside the Chief Minister's residence, detained her but let her go after warning her for holding flash strike in front of the CM's residence.

    Whenever we seem to surmount the challenges faced. There is a lot of mess created by the politicians which comes to light. The present government does not accede to requests or protests, which makes me wary about the current situation. The coterie of anchors should be given equal opportunities.

    Correct. For evil eugenics and billionaire elite it is a fun... First of all hurriedly brought out vaccines when they knew mutants / strains coming out as happened during 'socialist' 1918 spanish flu, Soon Booster after Booster? To spike and destroy human basic cells / Blood cell repeatedly? or to make more money through vaccines? Following reference link has a video interview by World renowned German-Thai-American microbiologist Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, on spike proteins and human cells and Why spike protein vaccines or repeated vaccination (boosters) are dangerous to immune system.

    Sir, with due respect, you should come out of this. The website you referred has been listed as 'hoax website' by many fact finding and news websites. Just google " health impact news" on wiki to begin with. More over, Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, is entitled for his opinion however stupid it may be. The success of a vaccine is not measured by the deaths caused by it. There might be complications resulted on a body due to vaccines. But covid vaccines have brought down the number of deaths. Even now, more than 90% of covid related deaths are of those un vaccinated individuals. 80% of vaccinated people who tested positive had no symptoms nor did they develop any symptoms. These ratioes can be applied to the patients in Mangalore too.

    Vaccines have brought down or started many virus waves around the world? Communists, elites, control media, information first. Nazis did the same right? For them true news is fake and vice verse, to do and get going their billion dollor business using paid fact checkers and more than half a dozen comedians, liberals are using in US alone to brainwash public other than western main stream media. Look at the following virus infections graphs (link) after vaccinations and the conclusion, a research done by French Medical Doctor: "COVID-19 Injections Increasing DEATHS and New Infections – The Evidence is Overwhelming..."

    This is an eye opener article by Mike Adams at cairnsnews.org on how globalists using viruses, vaccine generated strains, to decimate much population, following few excerpts, for more refer link, ... "The end goal, as globalists like Bill Gates openly support, is the elimination of billions of human beings living today. Ideally, globalists seek to reduce the world population to about 500 million people, which is roughly a 94% reduction in the current human population."... Thus, people won’t be dropping dead right away after taking the vaccines. Instead, they will seem fine until the next major bioweapon pandemic hits them, at which point the fatality rate will be extremely high (perhaps as high as 75% averaged across all age groups). The next strain to be released via the vaccines will be COVID-21, and the COVID-21 strain could be rightly considered the second half of a binary weapon system that will achieve extremely high kill rates for human beings across the globe....

    It's really very sad. So many have lost their daily bread. Their plight have to be understood and Govt should really think of some compensatory arrangements for them instead of worrying about disgruntled MLA' s for they are anyways getting pay from tax payers money.

    "For many are called, but few are chosen" Mathew 24:14. But, in India, many are available, but few are needed. In a country, where an M.A, M.Sc and M,Com work as clerks in companies and banks, the anchors can change their career line and should be able to do any other suitable job. Even doctors are going for IAS posts, which is entirely different to what they studied. We should be flexible according to situation.

    But Few control the world and want to ruin it for their greed of control, power and self gain and Are these Western elites planning for a worse pandemic for lockdowns and economic collapse? Parts of a Divine message on pandemic to William Costellia, Australia, dated 6th August, 2021... “Because of the lack of faith, a worse Pandemic will come to mankind, which will shock mankind, because it will strike the lungs and the heart. We allow such deadly Virus to come to mankind, to bring them back to Us, who are waiting for their repentance. Our children must understand that it is not by God Who has allowed such evil, but by the free will of man.”... “My children, just because the Pandemic is causing the shutdown of your welfare – it never had to be like that. It is because of the enemy, the Illuminati – being the small elite of mankind – brings the fear of the Pandemic. But you need to listen and read from the true Doctors of the world, who have said the Virus is not as bad as made out to be. Locking everyone down is not the way, nor the wearing of the mask, because all this is doing is breaking the economy, which is the plan of the elite of the world. The Secret Society is in control of the world now and will bring the world to a halt. By doing this they will have numbered as many people as they can.” “My children, pray hard that the Viruses go – and pray for your protection. Fear not because I control the world, even though because of mankind not listening to Me, they choose to follow the demons.”... Ref: https://littlepebble.org/2021/08/07/message-832-6-august-2021/
