Mangaluru, Nov 15: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah today released a booklet highlighting the achievements of Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel after being elected to the parliament for the second time in 2014.

The book titled Modiya Hadiyalli Naalkane Varsha (Fourth Year on Modi’s Path) was released in the presence of district BJP leaders at Ocean Pearl Hotel in the city.

There was speculation that his visit was to plan strategies for next year’s Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala.

Mr Shah, who landed at Mangaluru International Airport at around 8:30 p.m. last night arrived at the Akhil Bharatiya Karya Vibhag Pracharak Varg of the RSS at Sanghaniketan, its local headquarters at Mannagudda, late in the evening.

Cow slaughter, Sabarimala shrine row and Ram temple are some of the issues which were reportedly discussed at a meeting in the presence of Amit Shah on last night. With the BJP sweeping the 2018 Assembly elections in six coastal and Malnad districts in Karnataka, and the party now eyeing the Sabarimala issue in the neighbouring Kerala, Mr. Shah’s visit assumed significance.

The BJP in Kerala had launched its six-day Sabarimala Rath Yatra from neighbouring Kasaragod to Pathanamthitta on November 8. The yatra flagged off by State BJP chief B.S. Yeddyurappa and led by Kerala BJP State president P.S. Sreedharan Pillai ended on Tuesday.

About 250 full-time RSS volunteers from Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra are participating in a ‘refresher course’, from November 11, being held under the leadership of Suresh ‘Bhaiyajji’ Joshi, sarkaryavah (national general secretary) of the RSS.

February 25,2020

Feb 25: Two Customs Preventive officers allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in Kerala were removed from service, a top official said in Kochi on Monday.

Sumit Kumar, Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Kochi, said that he took action against Radhakrishnan B, Superintendent of Customs, and Rahul, Inspector of Customs, who were allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in the state.

Radhakrishnan was involved in attempted smuggling of gold weighing 24998.61 grams having a market value of over Rs 8 crore through Thiruvananthapuram international airport on May 13, 2019, Kumar said.

Rahul was involved in attempted smuggling of gold weighing 11,035.54 grams valued at over Rs 4 crore through international airport on August 19, 2019, the Customs Commissioner added.

Radhakrishnan is currently lodged in Central prison, Thiruvananthapuram after the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau under the Union Finance Ministry issued detention order under COFEPOSA (Conservation of Foreign Exchange and Prevention of Smuggling Activities Act, 1974).

Rahul, against whom detention order under COFEPOSA was issued, is absconding.

"Two Customs officers of the Customs Preventive Commissionerate, Kochi, who were involved in gold smuggling cases were removed from service by Sumit Kumar, Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Cochin," an official release said.

Kumar said that both the cases were booked and investigated by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence and while show cause notice under Customs Act 1962 has been issued against Radhakrishnan, investigation is under progress in the other case.

"Both the officers were removed from service, after due process of law under Rule 19 of the Central Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1965," the release said.
