"Senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah took oath invoking God as the new Chief Minister of Karnataka at the swearing-in ceremony held at Kanteerava stadium in Bengaluru on May 20, Saturday at 12.30 pm. Siddaramaiah staked a claim to form the government on Thursday, May 18, after he was chosen as the leader of the Congress Legislature Party in a meeting held in Bengaluru. His elevation ended days of tussle between DK Shivakumar and him for the post of Karnataka’s 24th Chief Minister. DK Shivakumar was sworn-in as the Deputy Chief Minister. G Parameshwara, KH Muniyappa, KJ George, MB Patil, Satish Jarkiholi, Priyank Kharge, Ramalinga Reddy and BZ Zameer Ahmed Khan were all sworn-in as ministers and they will be accorded the cabinet rank. Close to one lakh people were in attendance for the swearing-in. Political leaders such as MK Stalin and Nitish Kumar were among the invitees. After congress' victory in karnataka, for almost 4 days there was intense lobbying for the post of CM between Siddaramaia and DK Shivakumar. After days of logjam, both the leaders agreed to the formula proposed: Siddaramaiah as CM and Shivakumar as DyCM but he will retain the post of KPCC president as well.  Learn more about your ad choices.

“I beg you man, please don’t let him be in that jail. These holidays will come and he will break as a human being. His spirit will be destroyed because of some vested people. You promised you will reform my child and not put him in a place where he may come out completely battered and broken. And it’s no fault of his. …But please send my son home. You also know in your heart it’s been a bit too harsh for him by now. Please please I beg you as a father,” This was the desperate plea made reportedly by Shah Rukh Khan to Sameer Wankhede after the arrest of his son in Cordelia cruise drug bust case. On 2nd October 2021, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was taken in custody by NCB officials, following a drug bust operation at Cordelia cruise off Mumbai coast. Some high profile passengers were arrested in this raid by NCB. But since it involved Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan, his case was of prime interest. Later as the case progressed there were questions raised on the manner the raid was conducted and entire operation and especially the role of NCB Zonal officer Sameer Wankhede came under cloud of suspicion. Almost a year and a half since then, CBI is now probing the matter. Recently CBI conducted a raid at Sameer Wankhede’s residence. The CBI chargesheet against Wankhede alleges that he made extortion bid and asked for 25 crores from the actor. There are more incriminating allegations, that we have explained in earlier videos. Defending himself in court, Sameer Wankhede has presented chats purportedly between him and Shah Rukh Khan. These purported chats between the two are doing rounds on social media in which SRK is seen imploring Wankhede to free his son, that some vested people are trying to destroy his spirit. What do the chats say? What was the reply of Sameer Wankhede to desperate pleas of a father? Let us talk about this in today’s video.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

"“Russian crude is substantially transformed in the third country and not treated as Russian anymore.” This was the reply of External affairs minister S Jaishankar when European Union (EU) foreign policy chief Joseph Borrell’s call for action against the sale of Indian refined products, made from the Russian crude. Borrell called for a crackdown on India reselling Russian crude as refined fuel in Europe. Responding to this, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar asked him to Look at EU Council regulations, Russian crude is substantially transformed in the third country and not treated as Russian anymore. I would urge you to look at Council's Regulation 833/2014,"" he said. But this wasn’t the first time that S Jaishankar had to defend India’s choice to buy cheap Russian oil. Earlier also he had defended India's imports from Russia while indirectly criticising the West for pressurising New Delhi to minimise its trade with Russia in view of its military action in Ukraine. He wondered how Europe could make choices to prioritise its own energy needs and at the same time ask India to do something else. However, questions have been r aised on India’s decision to buy Cheap Russian crude and sell refined oil product to the west. Both from outside and inside. Last month, report by CREA said that India leads the group of ‘laundromat countries’ that buy discounted crude oil from Russia, refine it, and sell the processed products to European countries, thus sidestepping European sanctions against Russia. India has time and again said that its decision to buy cheap Russian oil is to take care the energy need of Indians. Once S Jaishankar had even said that “we don’t send people to buy Russian oil, we send people to buy oil in the market, buy the best oil.” He defended the move saying that India was looking after its interest. But since the fuel prices in India continue to remain at record high, critics are questioning who really is benefitting from the Russian Crude oil?

October 1990, almost 30 years ago, Congress president Rajeev Gandhi addressed the media outside Bengaluru airport and in a moment removed the then Chief Minister of the state Veerendra Patil. At the time when this announcement was made, Veerendra Patil, who had suffered a stroke, was paralysed and bedridden. This sudden and shock removal of the CM stunned the entire nation. This was the incident that is said to have led the largest voter bloc in Karnataka:Lingayats deserting the Congress party. The whole story behind this infamous incident goes like this. The Rathyatra that passed through the state of Karnataka, led to major riots and violence in the state. 46 people died in the Communal riots. This happened a week after Veerendra Patil, then Karnataka CM, was bedridden due to paralysis. Karnataka being Congress ruled state, Rajiv Gandhi reached here for damage control. Now some reports say, without even meeting the bed-ridden CM, Rajiv Gandhi announced at the airport to reporters that Patil will be removed as CM and a new CM will be chosen by the party. Some other reports, including this 1990 report of India Today says, Rajiv Gandhi arrived at Bengaluru airport, went to meet Veerendra paatil at Cauvery bungalow, from there went to 1-2 violence hit areas and then while heading to Madras, he made the shock announcement at Bengaluru Airport. Although the party tried to do damage control by saying that it has done so, because Veerendra patil is ill, and state needs hands on CM at the time, the manner in which this was communicated, gave out a message that Congress party had humiliated Patil. This did not go down well with the Lingayats the community from which he hailed and in the subsequent elections, the community deserted Congress. In the subsequent years Congress tried its best to bring the community back to Congress but failed. Instad, Lingayat community rallied behind BJP and opened the door to south for the party. This went on for 30 years, but in the 2023 elections, Congress' lingayat vote share has significantly increased indicating that the community has shifted its political preference to the GOP again. In fact One of the Senior lingayat leader of the state MB Patil ahead of the poll said with several lingayat leaders of BJP joining Congress, the communty is coming back to Congress fold. The numbers prove the same.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
