Even though none of the arrested in connection with the murder of Deepark Rao at Katipalla in Mangaluru taluk has any links with Popular Front of India and its political arm Social Democratic Party of India, the Karnataka state unit of Bharatiya Janata Party has held the two outfits responsible for the murder.

Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, BJP state general secretary C T Ravi said 24 “Hindu activists” had been killed in the state in the last four years including Deepak Rao, who was murdered near on Wednesday.

He demanded the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for "failing" to protect the lives of Hindu activists. He also demanded that the probe into the murder of Deepak Rao should be handed over to the National Investigating Agency.

"These killings prove there is no safety and security to the common man. This is also an indication of the collapse of law and order. What government is in existence in the state? Civilian government or Taliban government?" he questioned.

Ravi charged that the SDPI and PFI were directly involved in the murders and the organisations had the support of the state government. "The Congress government has withdrawn 175 cases that were filed against members of the organisation. After this, the killing of Hindu activists has been going on unabated," Ravi said.

The BJP leader said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had never shown the political will to crush "terror elements" and "anti-social" elements in the state. He wanted to know why the Congress government was hesitant to send a report to the Centre about banning SDPI and PFI.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday demanded that the state government drop its plan to provide doorstep delivery of liquor.

"After faltering in mopping up revenue, the state government is mulling over allowing doorstep delivery of liquor by enabling online sales and starting new MSIL liquor shops in rural areas. I demand that the state government drop its plans," he tweeted.

"I came to know that the excise commissioner is keen to hold talks with a private firm to enable online sale of liquor. The government should back out from such a foolish decision. Otherwise, agitation is inevitable," Kumaraswamy said.

He said opening new liquor shops or online delivery will ruin the health of society.

"Post-COVID outbreak and subsequent lockdown, people are facing financial distress, struggling to lead day-to-day life. 

The government must withdraw such an imprudent decision to deliver liquor at doorsteps. Opening new liquor shops or the decision of online delivery in times of distress like this will spoil society's health. 

It is not fair for the government to fill its coffers by robbing people's money," he said in a series of tweets.

Benglauru, May 25: Nearly one thousand people in the capital city of Karnataka have lost several crores of rupees to online fraudsters during the two months of covid-19 lockdown.

According to official sources, 962 cases of online frauds have been registered in various police stations across Bengaluru March 23 to May 19. 

On an average, 18 cases were reported every day. However, this number isn’t unusually high compared to normal times, according to police. The highest number of cases was registered in west division (227). 

What baffles the cops is the brazenness with which fraudsters attacked. Many fraudsters duped people in the name of providing jobs, insurance money, Employees’ Provident Fund, renewal of credit/debit cards. 
Many people lost money while procuring groceries, alcohol, masks and hand sanitisers delivered at the doorstep. Olx and Facebook scams thrived during the prolonged lockdown. 

Police said malicious links were shared on mobile phones asking recipients to download the Aarogya Setu app and seeking banking information, all targeted at stealing phone data. 

An officer said many were glued to their phones, and cybercriminals took advantage of this, sometimes pretending to be bank representatives wanting to issue/ renew credit/debit cards.
