The Pradesh Congress Committee has demanded the recall of the Administrator of Lakshadweep, Praful Koda Patel, for spoiling the prevailing peace in the island by introducing the “agenda of Sangh Parivar and corporates.” Regulations including penalising the buying or selling of beef, introduction of alcohol under the guise of promoting tourism, the Goondas Act and law to disqualify those with more than two children from getting elected to the gram panchayat were aimed at imposing the RSS and corporate agenda of the Union government, PCC president, A. V. Subramanian said in a statement on Monday.The DMK government — when M. Karunanidhi was Chief Minister from 2006 to 2011 — enacting a law to provide 3% reservation to Arunthathiyars within the 18% quota of Scheduled Castes (SC) has had a lasting impact on the community and is a milestone in the party’s ambitious path towards social justice, Minister for Adi Dravidar Welfare M. Mathiventhan said on Friday (January 17, 2025).
The BJP had alleged in its complaint, filed in June 2023, that ‘false, baseless, and reckless’ allegations were made under the title ‘Corruption rate card’ in the advertisements issued by the accused persons on May 5, 2023, in all the mainstream newspapers in Karnataka during campaigning for the elections.
