Congress Plans Etiquette Classes for Bangalore Members

Some embarrassing instances of Congress party men involved in brawls and public misbehaviour has forced the party to crack the whip on the misbehaving leaders. This has come at the backdrop of recent cases of public misbehave and bad conduct.

Following the arrest of a Congress corporator from Bharatinagar along with his henchmen for stabbing a bar owner after the latter refused to serve liquor beyond the stipulated time, the party now wants to provide a “behaviour training” seminar for all its party men to avoid further embarrassment in future.

"It is unfortunate that our corporators are involved in such shameful acts. To correct their behavior, our party will conduct a seminar and a monthly meeting to ensure that they do not indulge in such acts ever again," Opposition leader Uday Shankar said. It’ is evident Shankar has been speaking against corruption in the current government in the state.

Several politicians are feeling the repercussions of this act and are reportedly concerned because the party has been identified for all the wrong reasons. "I cannot react on the seminar for corporators due to the strange incident of the drunken brawl. The party leader has to decide and we will follow," said Congressman M K Gunashekar.

Meanwhile, Munisanjeevaiah, corporator of Jayanagar East, criticised the attack and supported the seminar. "As a corporator, one should lead by example. But in this case, the corporator is identified for all the wrong reasons. I strongly condemn this misbehaviour," he said. This stance of Congress seems to intend conduct regulation of its politicians down in the South. Will the new learners abide by it and to what extent, is the next thing to be known.

Sonia Gandhi: People of West Bengal suffered under Left govt.

Congress President Sonia Gandhi during her rally in connection with West Bengal Assembly elections in April highlighted the plight of the people in that state. She said the condition of the people had got bad to worse due to neglect by the Left government. She referred to various schemes initiated by the UPA government at the Centre for the development of state. Sufficient central funds were provided to the Left government to implement progressive schemes, she said. The Left Front Government had failed to make use of Central funds given to the state for its development. She emphatically said that so much amount of funds was given to the states by UPA government as no government in the past had done. She added that the amount of work done by the Congress-led government at the Centre for all sections of society had not been matched by any non-Congress government in the past. This was the reason why that the people of West Bengal ultimately voted out the Leftist government and brought in the government supported by the Congress-Trinamool alliance.
