The CID officials raided Expert PU College and Mahesh PU College of Mangaluru on Friday.

Apart from these two prestigious institutions, nine more private colleges across Karnataka including six in Bengaluru alone, were also raided on Friday.

The other colleges raided include Narayana PU College in Ballari and Vidyaranyapura in Bengaluru; Sri Chaitanya PU College in Vidyaranyapura and Ballari; Deeksha Integrated in Yelahanka and Tumakuru; Presidency College in Kempapura; Brindavan College in Sanjay Nagar; Royal Concorde in Kalyan Nagar.

According to reliable sources, during the raids the officials recovered incriminating documents that link the colleges to the Pre-Univesity chemistry paper leakage.

The raids were carried out based on the information provided by the three accused — K.M. Muralidhar, Anil Kumar and K.S. Ranganath — who were arrested on April 13. They told investigators that they shared the question papers and key answers with the management of the colleges, who in turn passed the information on to “select students”

CID officials suspect that more colleges are involved in the question paper leak racket and that the 11 colleges are just the tip of the iceberg. No arrests have been made so far as the police are verifying the seized documents.

Sources said the prime accused, Shivakumar, and his son, Dinesh, who are on the run might have more links with the colleges and tutorials across the State.

Sir,

I request all to stop blaming Mahesh PU college / Expert college. It is a good college and they are having good teachers also. If you give your non-sense comments like this. what about the future of the students who are studying there. Please think about the children and stop your non sense comments. Tell about good comments which will be very useful to children who are getting scared about this issue.

I would like to answer Mr. Prakash's Comments from Mysore:
Probably Prakash Sir may not be knowing how the selection will be done for great colleges of Medical and Engineering. There are competitive exams called CET, JEE Mains, JEE Advance, AIPMT, etc. which are not based on the Board subject marks. Let's not become Idiots to call others Idiots who have Sweat for 2 years sacrificing their social obligations to acheive the heights in their career. We do not have any morale to abuse and get cheap publicity!!!

If the students of Expert score better than others in the latest Chemistry paper which has been most securely distributed, what would be the opinion of the great fellows who are taking this opportunity to defame the institution. Will they shut all their openings which is presently being used to do the great job of JAGRUTI among the PUBLIC ? Let us wait and watch!!! TRUTH PREVAILS!

TV Channels can stoop down to any level for TRPs. Expert is one of the best PU College in the state with a Team of Dedicated teachers. Expert students do not require question papers to write the board or any other competitive exams. Just because Expert has been raining ranks in all competitive exams False allegations are been made. Lot of hard work is put in by the students too. I am a parent of a Expert Student.

this might have happened since many years, only parents paid huge money may justify the act of Expert,,they are giving justice to the students studying in their college by doing injustice to the rest and to the state and country,

This is something baseless and trying to defame the institution like EXPERT College which is following rigorous study pattern to keep the students ready for higher level of competitiveness required for entry in premier institutions like NITs, IIITs, IITs, etc. Just because we have freedom of speech let us not use it for defaming somebody Unless and until it is proved beyond doubts. Anybody to be blamed at this stage, it is the state government concerned department officials and Dirty Politicians who are involved in these type of illegal activities.

I don't think it's real in Mahesh & Expert as they drill the student like any thing many students will leave Expert beacuse of too much study only no other activites..even sunday they have college if there is like this they should give students atleast little free..where as here NO in every 10 students atleast 3 to 4 will leave bcz only study..study..no mobile nothing..like this type of education over their do u think they do..no chances...

The media shouldn't shame\\name the college unless proven. This will have an affect on the reputation of the college and also the students passing out through these colleges. Down the line, no one may give them admission even though for no mistake of the students and the college in case the college is proven innocent not guilty.

Such things are politically motivated with insiders of the PU board being involved for sure. Just because a student is a topper, that doesn't entitle the CID to interrogate them without looking into their educational history. If the student has been a topper all his Educations carrier he should not be questioned. This will have a psycological effect on the students.

First of all , I myself am a \Maheshian\" . The thing is , neither Mahesh PU nor Expert have leaked/shared the paper . Its just a rumour thats spreading ... The Media Will do almost anything to bring down our reputation. i have seen and experienced the \"Mahesh\" Way of Teaching And i dont think there's even a single chance of blaming us!!."

kindy karnataka Govt. pls take care about this and not to repeat this ....

And I read some comments about genuine students being blamed , I'm sorry to say this but I'm a genuine student We don't being blamed because we know the truth and we know how hard we have worked.
I've inculcated many values from expert. One amongst them is to respect teachers and the knowledge they provide us.
Without them we are nowhere. And put your self is any teachers shoes, wouldn't you be happy if the students are successful because of their teaching and hard work ?
And the fact of paying fees for this colleg if you'll feel it is more then don't put your children here .
It's not going to work if you'll talk here and later take back your words.
Try to put your children in any other college and see
No college has that study ambience as expert does
It's not that the media has guts to publish this.
Just that they have to do something other than biting their nails.

I don't get the point of you'll commenting about a college where you'll haven't even studied . Expert is one of the best colleges you'd ever see. When the students of other colleges enjoy their PU LIFE we have struggled and slothed to achieve success . Dreams are fulfilled only with hard work and determination. If you'll think that the college leaked papers to the students , then why can't youll also look upon the fact that not everyone is successful here.
Since I've been a student I know , how hard I've worked . 5-6 hours of sleep a day , not because they asked me to do so , because I was motivated by my goal to be something useful in life and here I am with a free medical seat . A payment seat would cost me a crore but I had to just pay 60k. I was close to some of the toppers in CET and in boards , and they have been doing extremely well in their respective college now too. Does this mean that their present universities leak papers ?
Think guys !
The time has come when some introspection by the Indian media is required. Many people, not only those in authority but even ordinary people, have started saying that the media have become irresponsible and wayward, and need to be reined in.They can do anything to increase their TRPs ..
People always try to pull successful people down. Think before you come to any conclusion. We are the future of this nation and not the MEDIA

I always wondered how come these colleges perform so well. I am sure there are some really talented students in these colleges who probably work hard and get where they want to go. Unfortunate part here is with those other students who worked hard and still have to go through this .... I can't imagine, Govt lost total control of PU exams. In India its a make or break deal for kids with their future. Being a son of a professor, I do know how honest professors were in the olden days. I am sure there are quiet a few left even now. Because of few culprits, value for education is going down hill. I really feel sorry for those students who really deserve the best but don't think they will get the justice this time.

This Expert guy is selling education , He follows almost all scrupulous ways to make money , buying question paper, buying good Lecturers of Other College, bribing them not to teach well etc, in order to make his institution No.1.He collects Rs. 500000 lakh from below cut off students. Postal coaching a wastage sells @ 5000/- suppose they get rank he includes in his list of ranks.
GOVT. THIS IS THE TIME TO CANCEL THE LICENSED NCE TO UPHOLD OUR EDUCATION POLICY.

It's really sad that Mahesh has been named in this. I'm aware of the situation there and it's nothing close to what has been published and what people are saying. This is definitely not true and the Media should verify such news before publishing it as it affects the college's reputation. As far as expert is concerned, we all know what goes on there.But again, we should wait for the Concerned persons to verify this piece of news. I hope mahesh comes out clean.

Bengaluru, Mar 9: The BJP government in Karnataka on Monday scrapped the Shaadi Bhagya Scheme that was launched by Congress government in the state in 2013.

Under the scheme, Rs 50,000 was given to Muslim brides for marriage expenses after they submitted their Aadhar and BPL cards.

While the previous coalition government had allocated Rs 60 crore budget for the scheme, the BJP government decided to discontinue the scheme. Congress called the move by the state government as "anti-minority".

"They have launched a scheme for the majority community. I welcome that. But why are you discontinuing one scheme? It is a small scheme where marginalized people get a little help from the government," Congress MLA Rizwan Arshad told reporters.

"He (Karnataka Chief Minister) has wilfully reduced the money allotted to all the schemes," he added.

BJP MLA Basavana Gowda Patil Yantal welcomed the decision of the Karnataka Government to scrap the scheme.

"The minority does not need appeasement because equal citizenship needs to apply to all in this country. I wholeheartedly welcome this move by the Karnataka Government," Yantal told reporters.

"Should we not give the majority people anything in India? India not giving anything to the majority, is that secular? We have already given them Pakistan," he said.

The MLAs from the minority community in the state have demanded a meeting with the Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa.

Bengaluru, Jul 19: A viral video claiming to show crowded condition of a hospital treating COVID-19 patients in the city was found to be false with police on Sunday arresting a person for allegedly circulating it on social media.

Police said such videos have the potential to create panic and asked people to refrain from spreading them.

The arrest was made within hours of the police announcing registration of a case in connection with the video that showed a crowd of people wearing masks at an "outpatient ward" of a hospital, falsely identified as Victoria Hospital, a major dedicated COVID facility here.

The video went viral on social media.

"City Crime Branch swiftly identified and arrested this person who has been circulating false videos of panic in Victoria Hospital, Bangalore. Kudos to all doctors and medical professionals who are doing their best. False news busted," Bengaluru Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao tweeted.

Police said such videos have the potential to create panic in society and asked people to refrain from it.

"Covid False video about conditions of hospitals in Bangalore circulated on social media. Case registered in Cybercrime PS. While government, society at large fighting the pandemic, some are creating/forwarding messages/videos which has potential to create panic in society. Refrain from it," Joint Commissioner of Police, Crime, Sandeep Patil tweeted.

The video showed scores of people wearing masks gathered in a small space allegedly at an Out-Patient Department in a hospital, and a person filming it, claiming to be a doctor expressing concern that it was a threat to all medical staff, including the patients.

Official sources said the video was reportedly from a hospital in one of the northern states and not from Victoria Hospital.

Feb 25: Two Customs Preventive officers allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in Kerala were removed from service, a top official said in Kochi on Monday.

Sumit Kumar, Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Kochi, said that he took action against Radhakrishnan B, Superintendent of Customs, and Rahul, Inspector of Customs, who were allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in the state.

Radhakrishnan was involved in attempted smuggling of gold weighing 24998.61 grams having a market value of over Rs 8 crore through Thiruvananthapuram international airport on May 13, 2019, Kumar said.

Rahul was involved in attempted smuggling of gold weighing 11,035.54 grams valued at over Rs 4 crore through international airport on August 19, 2019, the Customs Commissioner added.

Radhakrishnan is currently lodged in Central prison, Thiruvananthapuram after the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau under the Union Finance Ministry issued detention order under COFEPOSA (Conservation of Foreign Exchange and Prevention of Smuggling Activities Act, 1974).

Rahul, against whom detention order under COFEPOSA was issued, is absconding.

"Two Customs officers of the Customs Preventive Commissionerate, Kochi, who were involved in gold smuggling cases were removed from service by Sumit Kumar, Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Cochin," an official release said.

Kumar said that both the cases were booked and investigated by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence and while show cause notice under Customs Act 1962 has been issued against Radhakrishnan, investigation is under progress in the other case.

"Both the officers were removed from service, after due process of law under Rule 19 of the Central Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1965," the release said.
