According to police, seven dacoits came to Vasudev Asranna's house asking for a medicine to cure skin disease. Asranna family is known for providing ayurveda medicine for skin diseases. The family members told them they don't give medicine as it was late in the night and asked them to come next day.

The gang left the house only to come back after some time. This time, they broke open the door and entered the house. They threatened the family members and fled with valuables. Police sources said the gang had come to priest's house thinking that there is 'treasure' inside. Finger print experts and canine squad were presses into service. Police suspect it is a handiwork of localites.

M Chandra Sekhar, city police commissioner, who visited the spot on Tuesday morning, said two teams have been formed to nab the culprits.

New Delhi, Mar 19: The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the validity of Karnataka's 2018 reservation law, which granted reservation in promotion to employees belonging to SC and ST categories.

A bench headed by Justice DY Chandrachud holds that applications filed by a group of general category employees for applying 'post-based quota' and the principle of the creamy layer at entry-level in public employment are not maintainable.

The apex court had, in November last year, reserved its order on the applications filed by general category candidates in the matter.

In May last year, the top court had upheld the law allowing reservations in promotions for SC and ST candidates with consequential seniority.
