Udupi, Mar 2: Days after Karnataka BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa unhesitatingly linked IAF air strike inside Pakistan to Lok Sabha polls, his confidante and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje today gave credit of air strike and release of captured Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman by Pakistan to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Addressing media persons here, the firebrand BJP leader said that PM had deftly handled the situation arising out of the Pulwama terrorist attack by conducting air strikes on alleged terrorist camps in Pakistan and also getting Abhinandan released from Pakistan.

She claimed that Mr Modi had got not just military but also diplomatic success to the country. The other countries of the world have understood India’s position, and the credit for the successful handling of the entire situation must go to the PM, she said, likening Mr Modi to a “lion cub”.

She said Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman’s bravery in dealing with Pakistani authorities was remarkable. “It brought tears to my eyes,” she said.

To a query, Ms Karandlaje said Yeddyurappa had been quoted out of context on his remark that the BJP would win 22 seats in the State with the “increasing Modi wave” among youngsters after the Indian air strikes against Pakistan.

Brahmin Savarkar was non-veg eater; wasn't against cow slaughter: Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao

Karnataka Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao reminded that V D Savarkar was not against cow slaughter as he himself was non-veg eater, PTI reported on Thursday.

"As a Brahmin he was eating meat, and he was openly propagating eating meat," said the minister at an event in Bengaluru.

Reacting to Gundu Rao's claim, BJP MP Anurag Thakur called Congress a "factory of lies" as he warned that India won't tolerate any disrespect towards Savarkar.

"By disrespecting Veer Savarkar they have shown that they don't respect freedom fighters. During the Congress government, Sardar Bhagat Singh was termed a separatist in textbooks...By making those who want to break the nation join the congress party, Rahul Gandhi is taking forward the ideology of 'tukde tukde' and he is a 'modern Jinnah' who speaks ill of the country abroad...," he said.

Meanwhile, a court in Maharashtra's Nashik district summoned Congress MP Rahul Gandhi earlier this week in a defamation case filed against him for his alleged objectionable remarks against the Hindutva ideologue.

The complainant, who is the director of an NGO, claimed he watched a press conference addressed by Gandhi in Hingoli and also a speech made by the Congress leader in November 2022.

He alleged that Gandhi, on the two occasions, by his words and visual representations knowingly harmed the reputation of Veer Savarkar and also tried to defame the latter's image in the society.

According to the complainant, Gandhi said "Savarkar is BJP and RSS jin" which was defamatory in nature.
