New Delhi, Sept 17: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday met Congress president Sonia Gandhi and is learnt to have updated her on the progress in the investigation into the murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh.

Siddaramaiah explained the sequence of events and assured her the probe is moving in the right direction. Emerging out of the meeting, the chief minister said it was just a courtesy call and discussed the political developments in the state.

Soon after Gauri’s murder, Sonia and Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi dialled the chief minister and urged him to act swiftly to bring the culprits to book. He said he had directed the SIT to coordinate with the CBI, the Maharashtra police and the Karnataka CID, which are probing the murders of rationalist Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare and M M Kalburgi respectively.

Dismissing BJP’s allegation of a rise in political killings in Karnataka since the Congress government came to power, the chief minister said no killing should happen whether it is of right or left ideologues.

Later in the day, Siddaramaiah also called on President Ram Nath Kovind.

The chief minister also met Union Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and requested her to hand over defence land for Metro projects and road widening in Bengaluru in exchange for land in Anekal.

Siddaramaiah said the minister assured him the state’s demand will be considered and would also look into the state’s request to conduct an air show during Mysuru Dasara from September 21 to 27.

Bellari, Feb 23: Fringe outfit Sri Ram Sena leader Sanjeev Maradi said on Friday said that organization will reward Rs 10 lakh to the person who will 'eliminate' those who have raised "pro-Pakistan" slogans including Amulya who recently raised "Pakistan Zindabad" slogan at an anti-CAA protest in Bengaluru.

"We request both state and central government not to release them (Pro-Pakistan sloganeers) on bail. If they will be released Sri Ram Sena will eliminate them or will give a reward of Rupees 10 lakh to those who kill them," said Sanjeev Maradi.

"We condemn such slogans. This is like a virus. First, it happened in Jammu and Kashmir, then in JNU, then Mysore and then a student named Amulya raised pro Pakistan slogan in Bengaluru," he added.

A girl named Amulya raised 'Pakistan Zindabad' slogan on Thursday at an anti-CAA protest where AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi was also invited.

Thereafter, a case was registered under Section 124A (Offence of sedition) of the Indian Penal Code against the student.

Meanwhile, Imran Pasha, the organizer of the anti-CAA protest said that Amulya was not invited to the event.

"We were the organizers of the event. At around 6:45 pm on Thursday, when I and Member of Parliament Asaduddin Owaisi were entering the stage area, we did not notice Amulya was present there. I did not invite her," Pasha told media.
