March 15, 2016

Mysuru, Mar 15: Member of Parliament from Mysuru and Kodagu Prathap Simha, on Monday, said, the State government and district administration should be held responsible for the murder of Raju, near a tea shop on MG Road in Udayagiri by three bike-borne assailants, on Sunday evening.

MP Pratap Simha, MLA CT Ravi and others on Monday consoling the family members of Raju, a BJP worker who was hacked to death on Sunday, at Kyathamaranahalli  in Mysuru 

After a meeting with Deputy Commissioner C?Shikha and City Police Commissioner B?Dayananda at the Deputy Commissioner's office, here, Simha said, a disputed madrasa' claimed the life of Raju.

According to Simha, Muslims in Kyathamaranahalli have illegally built a madrasa on a disputed land, which is located next to Raju's house. Raju had been fighting legally to stop it. To take revenge, Raju has been murdered.

The dispute exists since 2009 and four persons have been killed for the same issue, he added.

“After the Congress party came to power in Karnataka, the State is competing with Kashmir, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh in terms of violence. In the recent past, three pro-Hindu activists, including Raju, have been killed. Others are — Praveen Poojary in Moodabidri in Dakshina Kannada and Kuttappa in Kodagu,” Simha added.

“Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is protecting the culprits. Law and order has completely collapsed in the State because of the chief minister. Siddaramaiah is the chief minister for Ahinda and not of the State. But, he must understand that he is responsible for the welfare of all the people,” he said.

The MP?alleged, a majority of the people creating violence in the State belong to Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI).

“After the Congress came to power, the government has withdrawn cases that were booked against 1,500 SDPI members for causing violence,” he said.

Three demands

BJP?State unit General Secretary C T Ravi placed three demands before the district administration. He demanded the arrest of the assailants immediately, Rs 25 lakh compensation for Raju's family and a solution to the land issue.

“Even though the murder was brutal and created panic among Mysureans and the family members of Raju, no minister or Congress MLA is bothered to respond. None visited the family members. The land issue emerged in 2009 and four persons have been killed over it due to the negligence of the District Administration,” Ravi said.

Earlier, Simha and Ravi visited the family members of Raju and consoled them.

Madikeri, Aug 7: Two days after massive landslides triggered by heavy downpour in Kodagu, five people including a priest are still missing. 

The landslide, which originating at Brahmagiri Hills in Talacauvery, swept away two houses on Wednesday night.

This missing people are: Talacauvery temple chief Narayana Achar (70), his wife Shantha (70), brother Ananda Theertha Swami (87) and two assistants — Ravi Kiran (26) and Srinivas (30). Achar’s neighbour had shifted out of Bhagamandala earlier, fearing a landslide. 

The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) had to stop rescue operations due to bad weather. The operations resumed today. 

“There are many minor landslides on the way to the spot,” said Kodagu Deputy Commissioner C Annies K Joy, adding that the flood situation at Bhagamandala was not permitting earthmovers to reach the spot. Heavy rain between Wednesday and Thursday triggered landslides. 

Bhagamandala Panchayat Development Officer Ashok said a notice was issued to the priest’s family to shift out of the house, but they chose to stay back. 

On Thursday morning, when the Talacauvery temple staff went to check on Narayana Achar, as he had not reached the temple for the daily puja, they found levelled land and debris where Achar’s house stood. Utensils, puja material and clothes were found nearly 2 km away at Cherangala. 

As rains continued over the last few days, many rivers are flowing above the danger levels, forcing people to move to safer places.

 Responding to the situation, which is turning grimmer by the day, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who is currently undergoing treatment in a private hospital after testing positive for Covid-19, directed ministers to visit rain-hit areas and supervise relief efforts. He has also assured of providing required financial assistance for those affected.

Kochi, Jan 22: Rail passengers from Kerala are a happy lot as the state’s traditional food items such as appam and eggcurry, puttu and kadala curry have found their way back to the revised menu of the Railways in the wake of protests over reports that they were replaced by north indian delicacies.

The popular Kerala dishes were reinstated to the list following social media backlash over the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation’s reported decision to replace the favorite cuisine of Malayalis from its menu with north Indian dishes such as Kachori and Chole Bhature.

Ernakulam MP Hibi Eden, who had shot off a letter to Railway Minister Piyush Goyal raising the issue of alleged discrimination against Keralites, got an assurance from the IRCTC officials that popular items, including snacks such as unniyappam and sukhiyan will be served through its outlets in the state.

Eden said the IRCTC officials who visited him at his home on Wednesday morning have presented him with the list of delicacies to be served by its local vendors in Kerala. In his letter to the minister, the MP had stated that dishes which are very important to Malayalis for breakfast such as appam, egg curry, porotta, dosa, steam cake (puttu) were excluded along with snacks such as banana fry (pazham pori), kozhukkatta, unniyappam, neyyappam and sukhiyan.  He had also raised the issue of hike in price of food items.

According to him, price of meals has been increased from RS 35 to 70 and that ofsnacks such as vada from Rs 8 to 15.  While the price of vada has not been reduced, the fare of snack meal like parotta, chappathi, idiyappam, appam and puttu with kadala curry or egg curry will be served at Rs 50.  According to IRCTC, a passenger will have to shell out Rs 20 for unniyappam/sukhiyan/neyyappam, 2 numbers each.  Informing Goyal of the changes in menu, he said Malayalis are discriminated in trains and railway refreshment rooms by the food which is the right of every passenger.

He had sought urgent intervention of the Minister and speedy action in the matter.
