PARAS Srinagar launches holistic paediatric services, signs MoU with SKIDS
Srinagar, Nov 14: Reinforcing its commitment to healthier beginnings and a stronger future for children, PARAS Health Srinagar on Saturday unveiled its Holistic Paediatric Services on the occasion of Childrens Day, marking a significant expansion of specialised newborn and child healthcare in Kashmir. The launch includes dedicated Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) facilities, alongside a strategic collaboration with Bengaluru-based SKIDS Health to strengthen comprehensive screening and early identification of health and developmental concerns among children. The initiative represents an important step towards building an integrated maternal and child healthcare ecosystem, bringing together specialised medical expertise, advanced critical care, preventive screening and family-centred support under one roof. As part of the launch, PARAS Health Srinagar also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with SKIDS Health, a Bengaluru-based healthcare organisation founded by physician-scientist and paediatrician Dr Satish Prasad Rath. The collaboration aims to introduce comprehensive screening of children across multiple health and developmental domains, strengthening early identification, timely assessment and appropriate clinical intervention. The partnership seeks to promote a more holistic approach to childhood healthcare, recognising that a child's well-being extends beyond the treatment of illness to include early screening, developmental assessment, preventive care and timely medical support. Deputy Commissioner Srinagar, Dr Akshay Labroo, IAS, who attended the launch, congratulated the PARAS Health Srinagar team on the introduction of its Holistic Paediatric Services and appreciated the institution's efforts towards strengthening specialised healthcare infrastructure in the region. Emphasising the importance of public-private collaboration, he said government and private healthcare institutions must work in close coordination to improve access to quality, affordable and specialised medical services for the common masses. He observed that meaningful partnerships, shared resources and collective commitment could play a transformative role in addressing healthcare challenges and building a stronger, more accessible healthcare ecosystem in Jammu and Kashmir. Speaking on the occasion, Dr Satish Prasad Rath, physician-scientist, paediatrician and Founder and Director of SKIDS Health, said the collaboration would help strengthen the culture of early screening and comprehensive child healthcare. Childhood is a critical phase of human development, and many health and developmental concerns can be addressed more effectively when identified early. Our collaboration with PARAS Health Srinagar is aimed at advancing a comprehensive approach to child screening, bringing greater attention to early identification, systematic assessment and timely intervention. We believe that every child deserves an opportunity to achieve their fullest potential, and partnerships such as this can help make specialised knowledge and structured screening more accessible to families. The focus must be on looking at the child as a whole, rather than addressing health concerns in isolation, he said. Dr Sajad Ahmad Bhat, Consultant Neonatologist and NICU In-charge at PARAS Health Srinagar, said the availability of specialised neonatal and paediatric critical care services would strengthen the hospital's capacity to manage vulnerable newborns and critically ill children. Every child deserves the best possible start in life. The first few hours and days after birth can be particularly critical, especially for premature babies, low-birth-weight infants and newborns with medical complications. Our NICU is designed to provide specialised monitoring and advanced medical support to such babies. With dedicated PICU services, we are also strengthening our ability to care for critically ill children who require intensive treatment and continuous monitoring. Our focus is on delivering coordinated, compassionate and evidence-based care while supporting families through some of their most challenging moments, he said. Dr Murtuza Habib, Facility Director, PARAS Health Srinagar, said the launch reflected the hospital's commitment to expanding access to specialised healthcare and responding to the evolving medical needs of families in Kashmir. Children's Day reminds us that investing in children's health is an investment in the future of society. Through the launch of holistic paediatric services, we are taking another important step towards making specialised healthcare accessible to families in Kashmir. Our objective is to bring together experienced specialists, advanced clinical facilities and compassionate care so that children receive the right medical attention at the right time. The collaboration with SKIDS further strengthens this vision by placing emphasis on early screening and a comprehensive approach to child health. We also remain committed to strengthening maternal healthcare and ensuring a seamless continuum of care from pregnancy to childhood, he said. Seema Vig, Senior Vice President and Regional Director, PARAS Health, said strengthening maternal and child healthcare remained an important priority in the organisation's larger healthcare vision. At PARAS Health, we believe that quality healthcare must begin with a strong foundation. Ensuring safe motherhood, healthy newborns and access to specialised paediatric services are essential components of that foundation. Our continued efforts are directed towards building a healthcare environment where families can access clinical expertise, advanced technology and compassionate support at every stage of life. The launch of these services in Srinagar reflects our commitment to making quality healthcare more accessible, comprehensive and patient-centric, she said. Reinforcing the hospital's focus on safe motherhood, Dr Sadia, Senior Consultant, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, said normal delivery remained a preferred option in uncomplicated pregnancies, wherever medically appropriate. Every pregnancy is unique, and the mode of delivery must always be determined by the mother's health and the baby's well-being. Wherever medically appropriate, normal delivery can offer several benefits, including a generally shorter recovery period and reduced surgical intervention. Our priority is to counsel expectant mothers, address their concerns and provide personalised medical support throughout pregnancy and childbirth, she said. Dr Najma Saqib, Consultant, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, PARAS Health Srinagar, emphasised the importance of balancing the promotion of normal deliveries with specialised management of high-risk pregnancies. While normal delivery can be beneficial in uncomplicated pregnancies, maternal and foetal safety must always guide clinical decisions. High-risk pregnancies require careful assessment, regular monitoring and timely intervention. Our approach is centred on individualised care, ensuring that every expectant mother receives the appropriate medical attention according to her specific needs, she said. The hospital has also introduced specially designed maternity packages aimed at making quality maternity care more accessible while encouraging informed birthing choices. With obstetricians, neonatologists and critical care specialists working in coordination, the hospital seeks to strengthen the continuum of care from antenatal assessment and safe delivery to specialised newborn and paediatric treatment. The launch of Holistic Paediatric Services, coupled with the collaboration with SKIDS Health, marks another milestone in PARAS Health Srinagar's efforts to expand specialised healthcare in the region. By bringing together critical care, preventive screening, early intervention and maternal healthcare, the institution aims to create a more comprehensive healthcare pathway for mothers, newborns and children across Kashmir.
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 14 (IANS) Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister G. Parameshwara on Saturday wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Union Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment Virendra Kumar, urging the Centre to take immediate steps to provide Constitutional protection to the state's increased reservation for Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs) by including the relevant legislation in the Ninth Schedule of the Constitution. In his letter, Parameshwara sought urgent intervention by the Centre to protect the law enacted by the Karnataka government in 2022 to increase reservation for Scheduled Castes from 15 per cent to 17 per cent and for Scheduled Tribes from three per cent to seven per cent. The legislation received the Governor's assent on January 11, 2023, and came into effect retrospectively from November 1, 2022. The reservation for these communities had remained unchanged for nearly seven decades. According to the 2011 Census, Scheduled Castes constitute 17.15 per cent of Karnataka's population, while Scheduled Tribes account for 6.95 per cent. Taking into consideration their social and educational backwardness, the Justice H.N. Nagamohan Das Commission had recommended an increase in reservation and suggested that the legislation be included in the Ninth Schedule to provide constitutional protection. However, the Karnataka High Court, on October 12, 2026, struck down the provisions relating to the enhanced reservation, saying that the overall reservation would rise to 56 per cent, exceeding the 50 per cent ceiling. The state government has challenged the High Court's order before the Supreme Court. In his letter, Parameshwara cited the example of Tamil Nadu, where the 69 per cent reservation was granted Constitutional protection through the 76th Constitutional Amendment in 1994 by including the relevant legislation in the Ninth Schedule. He urged the Centre to consider a similar measure to protect Karnataka's 56 per cent reservation. The Karnataka government had submitted a proposal to the Centre in this regard on March 23, 2023. The Karnataka Legislative Assembly also adopted a resolution on December 18, 2025, seeking Constitutional protection for the enhanced reservation. Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had written to Prime Minister Modi on April 16, 2026, on the issue. However, the Centre had deferred action, citing the pendency of the matter before the courts, the letter said. Parameshwara added that judicial proceedings should not become a reason to indefinitely postpone the objective of social justice. He said both the Union and state governments had a joint responsibility to address Constitutional issues and protect the educational and employment opportunities of disadvantaged communities. He urged the Prime Minister to personally intervene and initiate the process of introducing the necessary Constitutional Amendment Bill in Parliament to bring Karnataka's reservation legislation under the Ninth Schedule. I also called for consultations with the National Commission for Scheduled Castes and the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes to address the constitutional and procedural issues identified by the court. The Union Ministries of Law and Justice, Social Justice and Empowerment, Tribal Affairs and Home Affairs should coordinate and take a time-bound decision, the Deputy Chief Minister said. The letter also called for a wider national-level discussion on the relevance of the existing 50 per cent reservation ceiling in view of the changing social conditions in the country. Stating that social justice transcended political differences, Parameshwara said ensuring equal opportunities in education and employment for communities that had remained deprived of opportunities for centuries was a collective responsibility of the nation. He urged the Centre to respond positively to Karnataka's long-pending demand and take a decision within a stipulated timeframe. The key demands in the letter include placing the legislation providing 17 per cent reservation for SCs and seven per cent for STs in the Ninth Schedule, introducing the required Constitutional Amendment Bill in Parliament, consulting the national commissions concerned, resolving the legal and procedural issues, and undertaking a national-level review of the 50 per cent reservation ceiling. The overall demand is to provide Constitutional protection to Karnataka's enhanced reservation for SCs and STs, totalling 24 per cent, on the lines of the protection extended to Tamil Nadu's 69 per cent reservation.

WPGT 2026: Jasmine Shekar wins second title of season, holds off Vani and Ridhima at Rambagh
Digital Desk | Jaipur, Nov 14 (IANS) Jasmine Shekar managed to extend her overnight one-shot advantage to two shots and claim her second title of the season in the 14th leg of the Women's Pro Golf Tour (WPGT) 2026 at the Rambagh Golf Club in Jaipur on Saturday. The 21-year-old Jasmine, who hails from Bengaluru, took the lead into the final round, held her nerve to card 1-over 71 and finished ahead of two of the most experienced players in India, Vani Kapoor (72) and Ridhima Dilawari (74). In a week when no player had an under-par total, Jasmine aggregated 5-over with rounds of 74-70-71, while Vani Kapoor (75-70-72) was 7-over for three days and Ridhima (74-71-74) was 9-over at the challenging course. Shweta Mansingh (74-75-71) was fourth at 10-over for three days. Jasmine has been one of the consistent performers on the domestic circuit, more so this year. She had opened her 2026 campaign with a victory in the first leg in Mumbai and had since come close to adding to that tally, finishing runner-up at both DLF Golf & Country Club and Jaypee Wishtown. At Rambagh, she finally converted another opportunity into a title. She became the third player after Ridhima and Vani to win more than once in 2026. The result was particularly satisfying because the challenge came from two players who have enjoyed outstanding seasons. Vani and Ridhima had shared second place going into the final round, and both had the experience and form to put Jasmine under pressure. Vani had also arrived in Jaipur on the back of an impressive runner-up finish at the Hero Women's Indian Open, the best result of her Ladies European Tour career. Jasmine, however, did just enough to give herself a chance and convert it into a fine win. The Rambagh Golf Club course, a par-70 layout, proved a demanding test throughout the week. Scoring was difficult, with players finding it hard to get into red figures. In fact, there was just one under-par round in the entire tournament, a superb four-under 66 by Tvesa Malik. Despite producing the lowest round of the week, Tvesa could finish only tied seventh, underlining the difficulty of the conditions. She was tied seventh with Ananya Datar, a first-round co-leader with amateur Ojaswani Saraswat (74), who was tied fifth alongside Riya Jadon. Jasmine played solid on the final day and was steady. She had two bogeys on the second and fifth, which put her in danger. However, she had a birdie on the Par-3 sixth followed by five straight pars. Another birdie on the 12th was followed by four more pars. She looked set for the win as she stayed ahead of Vani. She could even afford a bogey on the 17th. Vani had two bogeys and no birdies on the front, and on the back nine she had just one birdie, but she also bogeyed the 18th. A birdie on the 18th could have got her into a play-off, but it was not to be, and she lost by two. For Vani, second place was another strong result in a season in which she has remained one of the leading forces on the domestic circuit. The experienced professional has already won twice this year and finished runner-up on three occasions before the Jaipur event. Her recent performance at the Hero Womens Indian Open had further underlined her ability to compete at a higher level. Ridhima, meanwhile, continued to add valuable points to an already impressive season. The Order of Merit leader has been the most consistent player on the tour, with four victories before this event, and her third-place finish keeps her firmly in position to win the Merit honours. Though the result at the Jaipur leg looked close, this week belonged to Jasmine, who never let things get out of hand. The next event, which will be the final one for 2026, will be held at Noida Jaypee Wishtown, which had also hosted the sixth leg, which was won by Ridhima, and Jasmine was second.

IFL 2026/27: Hannans late strike helps Bengaluru United hold Real Kashmir to thrilling 2-2 draw
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 14 (IANS) Abdul Hannan scored in the last minute of regulation time as FC Bengaluru United produced a late fightback to hold Real Kashmir FC to a thrilling 2-2 draw in their Indian Football League (IFL) 2026/27 encounter at the Bangalore Football Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday. Khullakpam Zahir Khan opened the scoring for the Snow Leopards in the 11th minute before Colombian midfielder Maikol Andres Herrera equalised for the hosts in the 21st minute. Defender Shanid Valan, who was adjudged the Man of the Match, restored Real Kashmirs lead with an audacious strike in the 29th minute, only for Under-22 centre-back Abdul Hannan to head home a dramatic 90th-minute equaliser. With this result, FC Bengaluru United moved to four points from three matches, while Real Kashmir registered their second consecutive draw to sit on two points from three outings. Both sides took a little time to settle into their stride, but it was Ishfaq Ahmeds Real Kashmir who drew first blood in the 11th minute. Overloading the flanks in numbers to stretch the Bengaluru backline, the visitors delivered an inviting cross into the box where youngster Khullakpam Zahir Khan rose well to direct a clinical header past FC Bengaluru United goalkeeper Manjunath Hirekurbar. After conceding the early opener, Mohanraj Nallappans hosts, turning out in their all-red kit, slowly began to find their shape as the match moved into the second quarter. A moment of sheer brilliance in the Silicon Valley brought FC Bengaluru United level in the 21st minute when Colombian playmaker Maikol Andres Herrera Casseres unleashed a stunning right-footed curling strike from distance that sailed over Real Kashmir custodian Susnata Malik and into the back of the net. The equaliser sparked an open, end-to-end phase of play as both teams looked to penetrate the opposition defence whenever they gained possession, testing both goalkeepers on multiple occasions. Real Kashmir reclaimed the lead in the 29th minute through another moment of magic, as defender Shanid Valan met a cross inside the box and produced a stunning left-footed back-heel volley to put the Snow Leopards 2-1 ahead. FC Bengaluru United, led up front by Russian captain Marat Tareck and supported in midfield by Ribhav Sardesai, Ngangbam Naocha Singh, Gautam A Virwani, Chunsaba Bariam, and Lalramdinsanga 'Ramdina' Ralte, continued to hunt for a second equaliser. The hosts came agonisingly close in the 38th minute when Susnata Malik and the last man of the Real Kashmir defencemarshalled by Cameroonian Alain Eyenga, Oinam Sanatomba Singh, and Amzard Khanwere comprehensively beaten, only for the crossbar to come to the visitors' rescue. End-to-end action continued through the third quarter of the opening period as Trinidad and Tobago striker Marcus Leric Jr Joseph came close to extending Real Kashmirs advantage on a couple of occasions, but failed to apply the finishing touch from inside the box as an action-packed first half ended 2-1 in favour of the visitors. Real Kashmir made a change at the interval, introducing Burkina Faso midfielder Eric Traore in place of skipper Marcus Joseph, while FC Bengaluru United brought on Daniel and forward Akshunna Tyagi for Colombian defender Brayan Alexander Cundumi Lastre and Ribhav Sardesai in the 50th minute. Both teams tried their luck with long-range efforts during the opening 10 minutes of the restart without seriously troubling either goalkeeper. Even after Eric Traore was shown a card in the 58th minute, Real Kashmir looked solid at the back and continued to dictate terms as the game crossed the hour mark. Moments later, FC Bengaluru United goalkeeper Manjunath Hirekurbar was caught off guard by a fierce long-range strike from the visitors, but the woodwork came to his aid as the effort rattled the crossbar. Ishfaq Ahmed refreshed his side in the 69th minute with a double substitution, bringing on Joseph Lalvenhima and Adersh Mattummal for Zahir Khan and Lalawmpuia Sailo (Omoma). The Snow Leopards continued to dominate the second half and carved out a golden opportunity to seal the game when Lesotho forward Thabiso Nelson Brown found himself in space at point-blank range, only to miss the best chance of the match as the scoreline remained unchanged. While Real Kashmir retained possession and controlled the tempo heading into the final quarter, FC Bengaluru United threw on Vinil Poojary for skipper Marat Tareck in the 81st minute before Maikol Herrera picked up a booking in the 84th minute. Real Kashmir also brought on H Lalrempuia for goalscorer Shanid Valan in the 87th minute to see out the game. However, out of the blue and completely against the run of play, FC Bengaluru United broke through in the 90th minute. Earning a set-piece in a promising position, Lalramdinsanga 'Ramdina' Ralte whipped in an inviting free-kick and defender Abdul Hannan rose highest above three Real Kashmir defenders around him to power a precise header past a helpless Susnata Malik. More drama followed during the six minutes of stoppage time added at the end of regulation play, which also saw late bookings for Abdul Hannan and Real Kashmir midfielder Mohit Mittal in the 90+6th minute. In the final minute of added time, Manjunath Hirekurbar produced his best save of the evening to preserve a point for the hosts, denying Thabiso Brown once again from point-blank range despite Real Kashmir having two more men unmarked inside the penalty box. In the end, the one-goal cushion proved insufficient for the Snow Leopards, who were left to rue their missed opportunities as FC Bengaluru United held on for a hard-earned share of the spoils.
India must build indigenous semiconductor manufacturing equipment ecosystem: Ashwini Vaishnaw
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 14 (IANS) Union Minister for Electronics and Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw on Saturday stressed the need for India to develop and manufacture its own machinery and high-precision components required for semiconductor manufacturing as part of efforts to build a robust domestic semiconductor ecosystem. During a visit to the Ethereal Machines facility in Bengaluru, the minister said the Centre, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, was firmly committed to strengthening India's semiconductor ecosystem. In the spirit of Atmanirbhar Bharat, as envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, it is important that India develops and manufactures its own machines and high-precision components required for semiconductor manufacturing, Vaishnaw said. He said Ethereal Machines was playing an important role in this direction by producing advanced machinery and high-precision components. The visit underscores the government's focus on developing indigenous capabilities in semiconductor manufacturing equipment and precision engineering, according to a post by PIB Karnataka on X. Earlier this month, the Centre launched the Semicon 2.0 web application portal under the India Semiconductor Mission, focusing on strengthening chip design, semiconductor equipment and materials, fabrication facilities, assembly and testing infrastructure, research and development, and talent development. The next phase of the programme has a fiscal outlay of Rs 1.27 lakh crore. Under the first phase of the semiconductor programme, 12 projects involving cumulative investments of over Rs 1.64 lakh crore have been approved across six states, with five of them having commenced commercial production as of October 2026. The government's broader push also includes promoting domestic manufacturing of critical electronics components, materials and capital goods to reduce dependence on imports and strengthen India's position in the global semiconductor supply chain.

WPL 2027 Second Half Likely To Move From Brabourne To Wankhede Due To ICC Venue Norms
Vadodara International Cricket Stadium: The second half of the Womens Premier League (WPL) is likely to be moved from the Cricket Club of Indias Brabourne Stadium to the Wankhede Stadium due to the ruling of the International Cricket Council (ICC) on venue exclusivity for its events. Yes, there is a discussion going on about making this happen. It is because the ICC Womens Champions Trophy is happening, and as per ICC protocols, there should be a gap of 15 days for a venue to host the major tournament. So that window will fall in between the WPL second half. If the WPL second half happens in Mumbais CCI, including the final, you wont get that 15-day gap. So that is what the WPL committee is discussing at the moment. As of now, they are into solving it, and once discussions are over, an official word is expected to arrive soon, said a source tracking the development to IANS on Saturday. As per the existing schedule, the fifth edition of the WPL opens on January 14, 2027, in Vadodara, where defending champions and two-time winners Royal Challengers Bengaluru take on Mumbai Indians. Vadodara will host the first 11 of the 22 games till January 24, before the action moves to Mumbai from January 26. The league stage of WPL 2027 ends on February 3. The Eliminator, to be played between the second- and third-placed teams, is slated to happen on February 5, while the table-topper goes straight into the final, to be played on February 7. The inaugural ICC Womens Champions Trophy, a six-team event, runs from February 14 to 28 and will be staged at the CCI in Mumbai and the Vadodara International Cricket Stadium the venues which are currently earmarked for WPL 2027. As per the rules, the ICC takes over the venues roughly three weeks before a global event begins, and keeps the venues under its exclusive control throughout that entire stretch of time. Brabourne Stadium staged the eliminator and final of the 2025 WPL, where Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals by eight runs to win the title for the second time. If the shift in venue happens, it will be the very first time that Wankhede Stadium will host WPL matches. Apart from host India, Australia, England, New Zealand, South Africa and Sri Lanka will feature in the Champions Trophy. All six teams will be competing in a single round-robin league. The top two teams in the standings will progress to the final to be played on February 28. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

Harshal Patel Likely To Move To GT From SRH Via Trade Deal Ahead Of IPL 2027 Retention Deadline
Indians Praful Hinge: India fast bowler Harshal Patel is likely to move to Gujarat Titans (GT) from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) through a trade deal ahead of the 2027 IPL retention deadline on November 17. According to a report by Cricinfo on Saturday, the two franchises have settled on a cash-only deal worth Rs 4 crore, with the amount to be taken off GTs auction purse. That amount is only half of the Rs 8 crore SRH spent on him at the 2025 IPL mega auction. For GT, the interest is hardly sudden. They chased him in 2024 and dropped out at Rs 10.5 crore, with Punjab Kings finally securing him for Rs 11.75 crore. GT returned to the bidding for Patel in the 2025 auction as well, but stepped aside when the price reached Rs 6.5 crore. The move would also bring Patel back to the state where his roots lie. The right-arm pacer hails from Ahmedabad and moved back to represent Gujarat in domestic cricket from the 2025/26 season. At GT, who won the IPL in 2022, Patel will join Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Jason Holder and Ashok Sharma in the seam-bowling department. In IPL 2025, Patel picked up 16 wickets in 13 games, but in the last season he played just five times and did not take a wicket, while conceding 10.82 an over. The team leaned on uncapped Indians Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain instead to lead their fast-bowling charge. Patel, who played 25 T20Is for India and picked 29 scalps, has two IPL Purple Caps against his name - from 2021 with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), where he picked 32 wickets, and 2024 with Punjab Kings (PBKS), where he took 24 wickets. GT would be his fifth franchise after being with RCB, SRH, PBKS and Delhi Capitals (DC) since his IPL debut in 2012. In IPL, Harshal has played 124 matches and picked 151 wickets, with an average of 24.68, economy rate of 8.92 and best individual figures of 5-27. Previously, SRH, the IPL 2016 winners, brought in left-arm pacer T Natarajan from DC and then got Khaleel Ahmed and Nathan Ellis from Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a four-player exchange.

Bengaluru Man Claims Peace After Murdering Seven Family Members
A shocking confession emerges from Bengaluru as a man admits to killing seven family members, claiming he has found peace after the act. Bengaluru Man Claims Peace After Murdering Seven Family Members
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 14 (IANS) Amid discussions over former minister and senior Congress leader H.C. Mahadevappa potentially quitting the Congress following his alleged sidelining in the party after D.K. Shivakumar took over as Karnataka Chief Minister, his son and Congress MP Sunil Bose has asserted on Saturday that the party has neither cheated nor done any injustice to their family. Mahadevappa, a prominent frontline Congress leader from the Dalit community and a close associate of former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, has been at the centre of political discussions over his alleged marginalisation following the change of guard in Karnataka. Speaking at Mysuru on the speculation surrounding his father's political future, Sunil Bose said the Congress party had treated Mahadevappa with respect and honour and had given him an opportunity to serve as a minister. The Congress party has not cheated us or done any injustice to our family. The party made my father a minister and has treated him with honour. As far as my father is concerned, the party has given him due respect, he said. He further made it clear that his family would continue to remain with the Congress and contest elections under the party's banner in the future. We will remain in the Congress party, and even in the future, we will contest elections only from the Congress, he said. However, Sunil Bose also indicated that some leaders who were contemplating switching parties might take such a decision in 2027. Those leaders who are thinking of changing parties might do so in 2027, he said. It can also be noted that during the leadership tussle in the Congress, Mahadevappa had openly backed Siddaramaiah's continuation as Chief Minister. He had also maintained that if there was a change of leadership, a Dalit leader should be considered for the Chief Minister's post. However, Mahadevappa's exclusion from the Cabinet following Shivakumar's elevation as Chief Minister has fuelled speculation about his growing dissatisfaction with the party leadership. There have also been rumours that Siddaramaiah did not strongly push for Mahadevappa's inclusion in the Cabinet and instead focused on securing a prominent ministerial position for his son, Yathindra Siddaramaiah. Speculation has also emerged that political considerations in the same region could have contributed to the alleged differences between the leaders. Against this backdrop, Minister Yathindra Siddaramaiah and senior Minister K.H. Muniyappa recently visited Mahadevappa at his residence and held discussions with him, triggering further political speculation. Sunil Bose's statement comes amid growing discussions over Mahadevappa's political future and whether the senior Dalit leader would continue with the Congress or explore other political options. The debate arose after Mahadevappa initially working with Dalit organisations planning a convention at Maharajas College grounds and the state government led in Mysuru under former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his minister-son Yathindra Siddaramaiah both planned major November 26 gatherings. Mahadevappa dismissed the idea that there is a prestige issue or conflict between the government and independent organisations, stating that both share the same objective of spreading constitutional values. He noted he would gladly attend any number of programmes. He has also welcomed the Karnataka government's plan to hold large-scale Constitution Day (Samvidhan Diwas) celebrations on November 26, 2026, in Mysuru, while also defending the right of independent social and Dalit organisations to hold their own parallel events.
