Siddaramaiah on Sunday rejected allegations hurled by his own party leader, the 92-year old Shamnur Shivashankarappa that the Congress regime had neglected the interests of Lingayats in general, and the community officials in particular. Shivashankarappa, who represents Davanagere South in the Assembly, is also the president of the All India Veerashaiva Mahasabha. He also batted for the CM's post for a leader from the community, barely days after AICC issued a gag order to partymen not to air opinions on these posts in public. Veerashaiva-Lingayats are also Karnataka's largest and politically influential community, represented in the assembly by former BJP CMs BS Yediyurappa and Basavaraj Bommai, among others. While the veteran leader's comments have left the Congress on the defensive, the BJP has jumped at the opportunity, seeking to amplify Shivashankarappa's sentiments and capitalise on them ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. Siddaramaiah did not agree with the perception of his party colleague, insisting that his government had treated everyone equally.

Bengaluru, an electric car burst into flames near Dalmia Circle in the JPNagar area, creating a horrifying scene that has gone viral on social media. Fortunately, no casualties have been reported, but the cause of the fire remains unknown. Electric vehicle fires, although rare in theory, often attract significant attention when they do occur. These incidents are primarily attributed to the high energy density of electric vehicle battery packs, which store a large amount of energy in a compact space. When the battery pack is damaged, an internal short circuit can trigger a chain reaction known as thermal runaway. During this process, the battery generates more heat than it can dissipate, leading to a fire. About 95% of battery fires in electric vehicles are classified as ignition fires, producing jet-like directional flames. The remaining 5% involve a vapor cloud explosion. Several factors can cause a battery to catch fire, including physical damage from accidents, manufacturing defects, battery faults, workshop repairs, arson, external fires, or overheating.
