    Did somebody say that the mining lobby is never a problem?

  2. Tarlemaga Says:

    30 years of unstable rule in Karnataka except for one speak’s wonders. The mining lobby needs to be finished by the Naxalites.

    Govt property or Nation’s wealth is plundered by Ambanis and the Reddy’s. While they display their reckless wealth in comparison to the masses who cant afford two square meals a day.

    One thing that coming back to my mind – For all the riling we do of Dynastic Politics of Nehru/Gandhis, it’s been a blessing in disguise.

    Atleast they could provide some stability for one party. The examples of all other parties tells us how this country would’ve gone otherwise. Each regional satrap would’ve broken this country (like MNS wants to do now) in many directions.

    Hope RSS can figure a way to be appealing to youngsters again and provide a strong alternative backbone to a national party.

    As for Reddy’s and their ilk – Politics is afterall last recourse of the scoundrels. Apparently reddy’s were in huge debt before they became friends with Sushma Swaraj & BJP, and within 10years they have managed to reach where they are today!!

  5. Brahmanyan Says:

    A seasoned politician and good person like Mr.B.S.Yeddayurappa should have thought for a minute about this before he befriended and allowed business interest to enter politics.

  6. Narayana Says:

    12000 acres of Bellary iron belt has vein that has rich iron ore valued at 230000 crore rupees. Now considering that one acre of barren land cost Rs 10,000 to buy you can imagine the gross profit margin of the Reddys.

    It is a national property that is being looted by a single person and politics is casualty now.

    other figures Cost of production is 100 rs / tonne ; Price paid by China for the ore is Rs 3000 /tonne;

    Narayan murthy can send his infy coolies on bench to supplement his income !!!

    Just a thought:

    Perhaps BJP should change its name…

    None of the parties with ‘janata’ in their name have been stable. Perhaps it is in the gene of the party that was founded by great Jayaprakash Narayan, that they will never learn to co-exist and co-operate. They always go individualistic and self-destruct.

    Perhaps it is time BJP adopted the old name – Jan Sangh.

  9. Rajesh R Says:

    Yeddy shld wake up atleast now… he shld boot out Reddys…. it’ll be disgusting if Reddys win in this battle…. I would prefer a Kumaranna than a Reddy…..

  10. Shekhar Angadi Says:

    What these all MLA s are doing in Goa and Hyderabad. Nere parihaara, Rajyotsava, Kshetrada abhivruddhi ella bittu, Reddigala enjalu tinnutta kulitiddarallaa, Naachike illada ….galu.

    Government should nationalise these mines and oil fields. These are natural resources and belong to the whole nation.
