Davanagere, Jan 3: State BJP President B S Yeddyurappa alleged that MLC Basavaraj Horatti 'is indulging in selfish politics, by using the issue of separate religion status for Lingayats, to his advantage'.

Speaking at the Renuka Mandir, here in the city on Wednesday, Yeddyurappa said that Horatti was making confusing statements by stating that BJP MLAs support the demand for separate religion tag to Lingayats.

"As for the issue of granting a separate religion status to Lingayats we are bound to adhere to the views of the Akhila Bharata Veershaiva Mahasabha and those of the Siddaganga seer Shivakumar Swamiji," Yeddyurappa added.

"It is the work of the Congress to split society and castes. BJP MLAs are united in their views on the separate religion issue. Horatti is unnecessarily creating confusion," the former CM alleged.

Seers meet

MLC Basavaraj Horatti has fixed a date for the public debate on the issue of separate religion tag to Lingayats at the Rudrakshi Mutt, Belagavi.

A meeting of many mutt seers was held to decide whether to attend Horatti's meeting or not.

Rambapuri Peetha seer Prasanna Renuka Veerasomeshwara Swamiji, Srishaila mutt Channasiddarama Panditharadhya Swamiji, Balehosur Dingaleshwara Swamiji and others important seers participated.

Bengaluru, Jun 22: The Central Crime Branch (CCB) of Bengaluru Police has obtained the custody of an associate of gangster Ravi Pujari and is questioning him about his role in several cases against the gangster, the police said on Monday.

According to the police, Khan is convicted in the case related to the murder of a builder named Subba Rao in the year 2017. The accused has been identified as Yousuf Bacha Khan.

"Continuing the investigation of Ravi Poojary, CCB had obtained custody of Yousuf Bacha Khan, who is associate of Pujari. Khan was convicted in the Subba Rao murder case. He is being questioned about his role in other cases," Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Sandeep Patil said.

The CCB had recently filed two charge sheets against gangster Ravi Pujari in Shabnam developers double murder case and an extortion case.

Pujari, who was wanted in several cases including ones related to heinous crimes like murder and extortion, was extradited to Bengaluru earlier this year from Senegal.

The gangster, who parted ways with underworld don Chhota Rajan, had jumped bail after he was arrested in Senegal in 2019 and had escaped to South Africa, where he was involved in drug trafficking and extortion.

According to sources in the Indian intelligence, Ravi Pujari was hiding under the false identity of Anthony Fernandes, a Burkina Faso passport holder, in a remote village in South Africa.
