Mangalore, Sep 20: Members of several labour organisations, who came together under the banner of CITU, took out a protest march from Ambedkar circle (Jyothi Circle) to the Deputy Commissioner's office here on Friday, demanding minimum wage, check on price hike of essential commodities, implementation of labour laws and signing an agreement which gives the right to labourers to form unions and have their rights at work place.

Addressing the protesters at a public meeting in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner after the protest march, State unit president of the CITU B Madhava said that state government is not bothered about the working class.

"Issues concerning beedi workers, Anganwadi workers, Auto drivers, other daily wage labourers and construction workers have to be discussed in detail in the Assembly. Wages fixed in 2009 have to be revised,” he demanded.

Recalling the signature campaign by unorganised workers who had submitted a memorandum with 10 lakh signatures to the State Government, he said that the Government had failed to respond to it.

Sunil Kumar Bajal of Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) said that entry of multi-national consumer malls will affect vendors. Street vendors are seeking mercy. He said that since the auto drivers are not provided with proper auto stands in the city they have been paying heavy amount as penalty to the RTO.

K Balakrishna Shetty, CITU district general secretary handed over a memorandum to Assistant labour commissioner Nagesh during the protest meet.

Belagavi, Feb 11: Tension prevailed for sometime here after a few villagers spotted four country-made pistols disposed in the garbage site by the road between Markandey Nagar – Waghavade village on Sunday. Police rushed to the spot and seized the arms which are believed to be of Portugal era.

Sources said some villagers noticed a pistol lying along with heaps of refuse. They informed Bhavakanna Patil, the owner of the agricultural field adjacent to the garbage site. Patil and the villagers checked the garbage and found three more pistols totalling four.

Police said the pistols are about 50 to 60 years old. Going by their condition, all rusted, it is believed that they were left unused for a long time. The Belagavi rural police who have filed a suo motu case related to the incident are getting into the skin of case to trace the owners and those who disposed them in the garbage pit. 

According to preliminary investigation, it is learnt that such pistols were in vogue during Portugal rule in Goa. There are chances that those who inherited the arms may have disposed it for the fear of possessing weapon illegally. The chances of some notorious people who reside in the vicinity near Waghavade and surrounding areas, where burglaries and dacoity are frequently reported, disposing the arms due to the fear of police also cannot be ignored. Police Commissioner Lokesh Kumar was not available for comments.

Bengaluru, July 31: Denying irregularities in covid-19 equipment purchase by the Karnataka government, the state unit of the BJP has issued legal notices to Congress leaders Siddaramaiah and D K Shivakumar demanding that they apologize or face a defamation suit. 

The notices seek a public apology for the allegations levelled against the government on irregularities in the procurement of Covid-19 equipment and supplies. 

Both Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar, the Karnataka Congress president, have been doggedly pursuing allegations of corruption against the BJP government and have demanded a judicial inquiry. 

BJP general secretary N Ravi Kumar said that while the Congress leaders claimed that Rs 4,157 crore was spent during Covid-19, they also allege that the government has not responded to any of the 20 letters written by them. "If the government has not provided any answer to the Opposition, where did they get the figures from," he said.

None of the allegations of corruption is specific and the statements made are factually incorrect. "These statements, without any basis, have been issued calculatedly to lower the image and damage the reputation of the government, the Bharatiya Janata Party, representatives of the party and the ministers in the government," the notice issued on behalf of Ravi Kumar read.
