BSY appeals HC to prevent media, Cong leaders from talking about his ‘past’

Bengaluru, Mar 16: Karnataka BJP chief and former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa has moved the High Court seeking a direction to restrain the media and Congress leaders from making statements against him in connection with the criminal cases already closed and those pending against him.

Justice G Narendar, before whom the petition came up for hearing on Thursday, ordered issuance of notices to the Press Council of India and the body of private television news broadcasters while refusing to pass any interim order at this stage.

Meanwhile, the court orally observed that the questions raised in the petition are a larger issue and hence directed the PCI and the body of private news broadcasters to be made as respondents in the petition.

Yeddyurappa has moved the High Court after a Bengaluru sessions court last month declined to issue an ex parte temporary injunction against 22 print and electronic media houses and seven Congress leaders on his suit, which is pending consideration before the civil court.

It has been pointed out in Yeddyurappa’s petition that the Congress leaders are issuing “defamatory” statements against him on the cases related to alleged corruption in which he has been acquitted of all the charges or the cases have been quashed by courts.

Also, it has been claimed in the petition that the Congress leaders are making remarks against him based on certain other cases, which are sub judice, and such remarks amount to interference in the process of administration of justice.

Siddaramaiah, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president G. Parameshwara, KPCC working president Dinesh Gundu Rao, Water Resources Minister M.B. Patil, MLCs C.M. Ibrahim and V.S. Ugrappa, and Congress spokesperson Brijesh Kalappa have been made respondents in the petition along with 22 media houses.

Kota, May 9: Karnataka Yakshagana Academy has come to the rescue of artists in distress due to cancellation of all Yakshagana festivals following coronavirus outbreak and clamping of lock-down.

The academy spends lakh of rupees every year from the money sanctioned to it on training new artists, performances and documentation. However, no such activity was undertaken due to COVID-19. Hence, the academy is discussing to transfer a large amount of money to Yakshagana artists as emergency aid, Academy President Prof M A Hegde said here.

In a statement issued here on Saturday, he said that along with this aid the donations by the public and Yakshagana admirers too could be given to the artists.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 42-year-old founding director of an engineering consultancy firm lost Rs 65,000 to online fraudsters who posed as representatives of a mobile service provider and lured him with the offer of a fancy number recently.

Asif (name changed) received a text message on May 19, informing him that a platinum number, 9099999999, was available and interested people could dial a mobile number to avail it.

“Asif, who runs a mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) engineering consultancy near Shivajinagar, decided to get the fancy mobile number. He called the number and the receiver said they would generate an invoice for his request. After a fake invoice for Rs 64,900 was generated, Asif paid the money through online transaction that day. Asif waited for two weeks for the SIM card with the fancy number to reach him,” an officer said.

East CEN Crime police registered a case of cheating under section 420 of IPC and sections under the Information Technology Act after Asif lodged a complaint on June 6.
