Bengaluru, Sept 15: With an eye on bypolls and to keep 17 disqualified MLAs in good humour, the state government has generously doled out funds for assembly segments represented by the former legislators.

Chief minister BS Yediyurappa on Saturday released Rs 26.5 crore for Hirekerur represented by disqualified MLA BC Patil to take up development works. This comes after several disqualified MLAs met Yediyurappa on Friday, expressing displeasure at being neglected by him and BJP leaders. They are miffed at BJP not extending any help in their legal fight to get the disqualification quashed by the Supreme Court. Last week, Yediyurappa had allocated Rs 11 crore each to Maski and Hosapete constituencies represented by disqualified MLAs Pratapgouda Patil and Anand Singh from Kalyana Karnataka Development Board funds.

Sources said the government has released funds to all 17 assembly segments ranging from Rs 10 crore to Rs 25 crore. “Both Maski and Hosapete were given funds after cancelling allocations to other segments made by the HDK government,” said a source. Those from Bengaluru got funds from the Nava Bengaluru scheme. According to a source, the government has released the highest amount for Hosakote constituency represented by MTB Nagaraj.

This is only an eye wash to make these people happy.  However, they should know that BJP cannot be trusted.  It will cheat and dump them in grave yard.   they did big blunder by trust bjp and got good lesson.   Hope they are not still sleepy and will open their eyes to know the truth.

Mangaluru, Aug 8: As visuals of the Air India Express flight crash at Kozhikode international airport emerge, one cannot help but be reminded of an eerily similar and unfortunate accident that occurred a decade ago. The August 7, 2020 tragedy brought back memories of the 2010 crash.

It was on May 22, 2010 that an Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight from Dubai to Mangaluru over shot the runway while landing at Bajpe airport and fell into a cliff. Of the 160 passengers and 6 crew members on board, 158 were killed (all crew members and 152 passengers) and only 8 survived.

Even back then, the plane had split into two. The crash has been termed as one of India's worst aviation disasters.

The final conversations between Air traffic control (ATC) and the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication of any distress.

Like the Mangaluru accident, Karipur crash too happened when the flight was attempting to land.

The captain of the aircraft which crashed at Mangaluru, Z Glucia, was an experienced pilot with 10,000 hours of flying experience and had 19 landings at the Mangalore airport. Co-pilot S S Ahluwalia, with 3,000 hours of flying experience had as many as 66 landings at this airport. Both the pilot and co-pilot were among the victims.

An investigation into the accident later found that the cause of the accident was the captain’s failure to discontinue an ‘unstabilised approach’ and his persistence to continue with the landing, despite three calls from the First Officer to ‘go-around’.
