Bangalore: MLC nominations - Governor likely to reject names of politicians


Daijiworld Media Network – Bangalore (SP)

Bangalore, Jun 20: Karnataka governor Hansraj Bhardwaj indicated that he will not be allowing politicians to gain positions of power by making back door entry into the legislative council through nominations, which normally are reserved for eminent personalities from social service, art, culture, and such other fields.

The state government has already made up its mind to nominate V S Ugrappa, Shantakumar, Iqbal Ahmed Saradagi, Jayamala, and Ahmed Jabbar to the legislative council. The contention of the governor is that the list, which should have contained names of people with distinguished services in the fields of art, literature, education, social service etc, is made up of political personalities.

When he was questioned at New Delhi on the approval of the list recommended by Karnataka government for nominations to the legislative council, Bhardwaj said that he is not aware whose names the government will be forwarding to him for approval. However, he clarified that in the past, he had thwarted an attempt to induct Somanna of the BJP as MLC through the nomination route, and that he would be following the same yardstick now.

Bhardwaj gave this reply to news persons who approached him during his visit to New Delhi when he met prime minister, Narendra Modi on Thursday June 19.

"I am yet to receive the list of nominations. Before taking a decision, I will examine the list of names," he said.

On the purpose of his meeting with Modi, he said, "This was a courtesy call. Appointment, removal, transfer etc of governor come under the discretionary powers of the President of India. The President can take a decision as per constitutional provisions, once he receives recommendations from the union cabinet."

In the meanwhile, BJP state president, Prahlad Joshi, has written to the union home minister, asking him to advise the state governor to reject the proposed list of nominations sent by the government for approval, as the list contains only the names of active Congress leaders rather than being true representatives of art, literature, sports, science etc in tune with the intention of the constitution in making this provision.

    Subrahmanya Swami always speaks truth VERY OPENLY whether he is controlled by RSS or not, is secondary.

    Two months back he called Rahul Gandhi as Buffoon and Joker in Mangalore. The same night Mangalore MLA and congress supporters protested against him.

    Two months later, a former congress minsiter of Kerala called Rahul Gandhi as JOKER...

    Truth always hurts for your people.

    Dear Dinesh Poojary, Kundapura/Bengaluru,

    SUBRAMANYA SWMAY SAID RAHUL GANDHI AS BUFFOON.

    MAMATA BANARGEE SAID MODI IS A DONKEY.

    IS THIS TRUTH YOU MEAN?!
    I DON'T SAY THESE BOTH ARE TRUTHS.

    A HUMAN IS A HUMAN NOT DONKEY NOR A BUFFOON.

    THOSE WHO SAY A HUMAN IS BUFFOON ARE DONKEY ARE MENTALLY OFF/PHYSIC

    RSS is political communal party of India.

    In up they went knocking door to door campaigning for vote to bjp.

    RSS IS A FIRST CLASS REMOTE CONTROL OF BJP.


    VAJPAYEE WENT TO ASSES ATROCITIES AGAINST CHRISTIANS IN GUJARAT AND ISSUED A POSITIVE STATEMENT SAYING: YES. ATROCITIES AGAINST CHRISTIANS ARE COMMITTED.

    CAME TO DELHI SUCCUMBED TO RSS PRESSURE AND ISSUED A NEGATIVE STATEMENT SAYING: NO ATROCITIES ARE COMMITTED AGAINST CHRISTIANS IN GUJARAT.

    MADAN LAL QURANNA RESIGNED BECAUSE ALL THESE RSS WERE SCOLDING VAJPAYEE.

    Soniaji is only a President of Congress party.

    She is not a Minister nor a Chief Minister, nor a Prime Minister.

    Know the facts...

    Even she sacrificed the Prime Minister Position from balding the head of dancer at Rajghat Sushma Swaraj.

    You have already agreed fraud qualification of Smriti Irani. Now shall i see your condemn relentlessly for the removal of Mathi Illadha Irani from the HRD Minister post?!

    COME TO THE POINT.

    SUPPOSEDLY SOMEONE FILES FRAUD CASE FOR FRAUDULENTLY DECLARING HE EDUCATION TO ELECTION COMMISSION AGAINST HER THE JUDGE WILL THROW HER INTO TIHAR JAIL.

    Now I have realised that BJP is fake. They made fake news aboit Sonia and Rahul and congress just for elections..
    After election I saw how Modi and other BjP leaders respect sonia. This shows Sonia is the lady to be respected.
    Well I dont support congress I am neutral. .. bit BJP made fake media news. Few videos and edited photos and subramanya Swami is the biggest liar.

    A fraud educational qualifications by Smriti Irani in the Election nomination paper that the undersigned has noted the specified facts by me which are true at the best of my knowledge and signed as her nomination paper submitted to election commission.

    AND THAT NOMINATION PAPER IS ACCEPTABLE TO ELECTION COMMISSION.

    A FRAUD EDUCATION HOLDER CAN HOLD HRD MINISTRY WHY CAN'T A QUALIFIED POLITICIANS?!

    Although i prefer eminent educated, cultural and social workers be nominated to MLC it is better.

    Let us see what the BJP ruled governors are nominating to MLC. and RajyaSabha.
