Mangaluru, Sep 13: Amidst reports that the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee was gearing up to build a case against him for alleged anti-party activities, former union minister B Janardhana Poojary said that he was waiting for the “notice” to be issued, so as to give a “proper” reply.

Karnataka Congress in-charge Digvijaya Singh had recently hinted that action would be taken against Mr Poojary as well as another senior leader, H. Vishwanath, for “speaking against” the party and its chief minister.

Speaking to media persons in Manglauru on Monday Mr Poojary strongly justified his recent controversial statements and said that his “outbursts” were to protect the party and not tarnish its image. “Those who don't realize this fact are ignorant people,” he added.

Stating that he is afraid of any action to be taken in response to statements, Mr. Poojary said that many senior leaders, including himself, Oscar Fernandes, Dharam Singh, Mr.Vishwanath, M. Veerappa Moily and thousands of loyal party workers have built the Congress fortress in the state and they do not want to weaken it.

He said while a few of the “ignorant” people in the party are busy spreading hatred against him, he has been receiving positive feedback not only from the State, but also from abroad, with regard to his straight talk to save the party. “I am voicing my concern for the party workers and six crore people in the State,” he said.

Bengaluru, July 29: The Central Crime Branch arrested four international drug peddlers belonging to Kerala and recovered drugs worth Rs 1.25 crore from them, said Karnataka Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday.

"We have started a war on drugs. Our agenda is to curb the drug mafia not only in Bengaluru, but in entire Karnataka. Many people are involved in the drug mafia. They are targeting students, other states, and international students who can spend and afford to become victims," said Bommai.

The recovered items include 2,000 kg LSD strips, 110 grams MDMA Cristol, 10 ecstasy tablets, 5 kg Ganja, five cell phones, weighing machine and pouches.

"When we raided a house in Soladevanahally police station area, we arrested Shahad Mohammed, Azmal, Ajin KG Verghese and Nitin Mohan. All are from Kerala and we will arrest their contacts as well. They are involved in the dark web mafia," Bommai said.

He said the peddlers were using post offices and couriers for their business.

"I'll speak to the central government, the home ministry and postal department, and other issues related to this mafia. Canada, Netherlands, and other nations are also involved in this mafia," said the state home minister.

"People from influential backgrounds are also involved in this mafia, but our objective is zero tolerance. We are using our intelligence. Drugs are coming from other states like AP, Goa, and other states," he said.
Bommai said he was personally addressing this case and appealed for support from parents, schools and colleges.

"I'm addressing this issue personally because it's important to curb the drug mafia. I need support from schools and college managements and parents. I'll also call college and hostel managements before colleges start. We will make managements responsible," he said.
