Deputy superintendent of police Handibag had committed suicide earlier this month after a kidnaping case was registered against him in Belagavi. On Monday, the family members of Handibag, including his parents, wife, and siblings met Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in Bengaluru.

They told the chief minister that Handibag was innocent and he was falsely trapped in a kidnaping case by the gambling mafia for targeting them. They sought action against those responsible for Handibag's suicide.

Devarahippargi MLA?A?S?Patil (Nadahalli), who had arranged the meeting of Handibag's family with Siddaramaiah, said 60 legislators had signed a petition seeking a government job for the late police officer's wife. Vidya has passed her SSLC and has a one-year-old child.

Congress MLA?S?T?Somashekar said he would provide a job to Handibag's sister in a cooperative institution. Somashekar has worked in the cooperative sector and headed the Karnataka State Cooperative Housing Federation.

Later in the day, Handibag's father Basappa was admitted to M?S?Ramaiah?Hospital for treatment of partial paralysis.

Court quashes suspects' bail pleas

A local court on Monday quashed the bail pleas of two suspects in the Handibag suicide case.

VHP activist Khandya Praveen, the prime suspect in the case who is evading arrest, had applied for anticipatory bail, while another suspect Kalmane Nataraj, who has been already arrested by the CID, had filed a regular bail application.

According to sources, the advocates representing the duo are preparing to move the High Court for bail.

Abhiram and Joy Milton, who have been arrested in the case, were remanded in judicial custody.

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Former prime minister H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday termed as 'disturbing' the violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in Galwan Valley and said the government should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue.

He sought to know as to how Indian soldiers lost their lives during a de-escalation process and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh should come out with a clearer picture.

"Reports coming from #GalwanValley are disturbing. Why did our soldiers lose their lives during a de-escalation process? In national interest, the PM and RM should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue with the Chinese. #LADAKHSTANDOFF," Gowda tweeted. An Indian Army officer and two soldiers were killed during the confrontation with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on Monday night, the first such incident in the last 45 years that reflected massive escalation in the five- week border row.

The Army said India lost an officer and two soldiers during the violent face-off, while there were casualties on the Chinese side as well.

Udupi, Apr 24: While several state governments and NGOs are actively working to provide essentials to the needy amid the COVID-19 lockdown, a fisherwoman in Karnataka's Udupi has proved that even a small gesture of help for others can make a huge difference in the society.
A fisherwoman, Sharadakka, distributed rice to 140 needy families in her neighbourhood during the ongoing lockdown. The contribution was made by spending all her life savings amounting to Rs 30,000. The amount was saved by her over a period of time in an effort to build a house for herself.
On Thursday Udupi Deputy Commissioner G. Jagadeesh visited her and ensured help to build her house.
"Spending her meagre earnings, Sharadakka generously filled many empty stomachs amid the nation-wide lockdown, which is a matter of pride," said the Deputy Commissioner.
