Slaughterhouse controversy by BJP for political mileage: JD(S)
Team Udayavani, Oct 10, 2018, 12:17 PM IST
Mangaluru: “Minister, U T Khader, had just put forward a suggestion to develop the slaughterhouse. BJP, which sensed an opportunity to get political mileage, is presenting the issue in negative perspective,” said Dakshina Kannada district president, Muhammed Kunhi accusing BJP of twisting facts relating to development of Kudroli slaughterhouse, with the sole aim of reaping political benefit out of it.
Mr Kuhi said that the charges levelled by MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and others, accusing Khader of taking unilateral decision in respect of slaughterhouse development are baseless.
“The minister had just made a suggestion. The decision was taken by Smart City Board Committee in which there are BJP members too. The MP and MLA who are creating a din on the issue seem to have forgotten this fact,” he pointed out.
Vasanth Poojary, unit president of JD(S) Mangaluru assembly constituency observed that a part of the Pumpwell flyover had crashed to the ground last year. Therefore, he demanded the quality of the construction to be got verified by experts from National Institute of Technology (Karnataka), Suratkal to avoid any future catastrophes. Expressing his opinion on Supreme Court’s decision on allowing entry for women in Sabarimala temple he said that the people should respect the Court’s verdict.
Mr Kunhi informed that the chief minister, Kumaraswamy, would be arriving in the city on October 14 to inaugurate Mangaluru Dasara celebrations. On the same afternoon, the chief minister will be inaugurating the offices of MLCs, B M Farooq and Bhoje Gowda in the deputy commissioner’s office complex and Kadri respectively.
Minister for cooperation, Bandeppa Kashempur, will be coming to the district on October 10 for attending the meetings at South Canara District Central Cooperative Bank and Campco office, after which he will be holding discussions about problems faced by arecanut growers, added Mr Kunhi.
