Bengaluru, Nov 17: A 27-year-old man killed his two sons on Wednesday after having a spat with his wife the previous night over chicken curry.

chickenPolice are looking for the accused, Satish Kumar, a plumber and resident of Beereshwaranagar, off Kanakapura Road in south Bengaluru.

Police said Shivashankar, 5, and Aditya, 4, who attended an anganwadi in RBI Layout, were strangled by their father. The older boy was also hit on the head with a blunt object.

The incident came to light around 1pm, when the children's mother, Jyothi, went to pick them up from the anganwadi. She was told Satish had picked them up at noon. When she reached home, Jyothi, who works as a household help, found the children dead on floor. Satish was missing, police said.

Police said the neighbours had told them that the couple, who had married seven years ago, fought often, and Satish, an alcoholic, regularly beat Jyothi.

On Tuesday night, Satish lost his temper as the chicken curry was not spicy enough, police said. He asked Jyothi to cook it again. "Jyothi refused saying it was late and she was tired. A furious Satish beat her black and blue. We could her screams and the cries of their sons," Bhagyamma, a neighbor told the police.

On Wednesday, Satish left home around 8am while Jyothi and the two children left around 9am. "Jyothi usually dropped her sons at the anganwadi before she went to work," Bhagyamma told police.

Bengaluru, Jan 16: Former chief minister Siddaramaiah and other leaders are likely to make the final decision on the name of the next Congress president of Karnataka soon, said party leader Dinesh Gundu Rao on Thursday.

"He (Siddaramaiah) has met all the leaders and I think soon they will make a decision. It has already been delayed, it should not have been delayed so much. I am sure high command will take a decision on this," Rao told reporters here.

Both Siddaramaiah and Gundu Rao had resigned from their posts, Leader of Congress Legislature Party and KPCC president, after the party's drubbing in the bye-elections held for 15 Assembly seats last year.

Mangaluru, Mar 31: With the Dakshina Kannada district administration relaxing the lockdown from 6 am to 3 pm to purchase essential commodities, panic-stricken citizens rushed to the shops early in the morning itself.

The citizens had formed a serpentine line in front of shops and supermarkets in different parts of Mangaluru and on the outskirts of the city to purchase their requirements.

As a precautionary measure, many were seen wearing masks.

“In spite of waiting in a long queue to purchase, we are not able to get the required essential commodities. Why can’t the district administration ensure enough stock of commodities in the shops and supermarkets,’’ asked a customer who had stood in a queue outside a supermarket at Chilimbi.
People were seen crowding outside markets at Kankanady, Mallikatte, Urwa and Central Market, violating the purpose of social distancing.

Consequently, vegetable prices have increased in the markets and shops. This is despite abundant stocks being available in these markets.

Trucks had unloaded the vegetables at Central Market on Sunday, according to sources. The prices of onions are skyrocketing yet again and is sold from Rs 50 to Rs 55 while a kg of carrot costs Rs 100.

"Why can’t the authorities check the rise in the price of vegetables and ensure that the poor are not inconvenienced," asks Lakshmi, a housewife.
