BJP MLC Tejaswini Gowda wants proper security and care for senior citizens in Karnataka
BJP MLC Tejaswini Gowda wants Karnataka Government to set up old-age homes to ensure proper security and care for senior citizens.
During question hour in the legislative Council on December 21, Ms. Tejaswini Gowda said that the government had been providing financial assistance to non-government organisations to run old-age homes. “There is not one old-age home run by the government. Why has the government not thought of setting up one?”

Bangladesh is witnessing renewed political tension after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a young leader who emerged during the July–August 2024 uprising that led to the removal of Sheikh Hasina. Hadi later headed the radical group Inquilab Mancha and was campaigning ahead of the 2026 parliamentary election when he was shot in Dhaka. His death has triggered protests, diplomatic friction with India, and concerns over rising political violence as Bangladesh heads towards elections under an interim government.
