The arrested constables have been identified as Raghav Kumar and Mayura attached to Girinagara police station in Bengaluru. Both of them were suspended after the arrest.

In her complaint, advocate Sukanya said that the two policemen, who were on the night beat on Saturday stopped her auto, and sought an explanation about the money she was carrying.

“I told them that it was for a friend. But, they asked me to accompany them to the police station. On the way to the station, I told them I was willing to talk to the deputy commissioner of police (DCP) or other senior officials,” the complaint said. The duo subsequently left Sukanya midway, and fled with the cash.

DCP, Bengaluru south, SD Sharanappa said that he would personally look into the incident. "We have registered a case under section 395 of the Indian Penal Code, which is dacoity against the two constables.

Primary investigation has revealed the involvement of another individual called Krishnamurthy, besides the two constables, who have been arrested. We have also recovered Rs 6.74 lakh from the duo," he said. He added that the investigation of the case had been handed over to the assistant commisioner of polic of Chamrajpet.

Mangaluru, Feb 13: After pro-Kannada outfits called for a state-wide bandh today, the police are on high-alert to avoid any untoward incidents.

The dawn to dusk bandh was called demanding implementation of Sarojini Mahishi report which recommended certain percentage of jobs to Kannadigas in private & public sector companies.

There is no official holiday declared for schools and colleges. Besides, all government institutions and private establishments are open.

But, in some parts of Karnataka, autorickshaws and taxis, including Ola and Uber stayed off the roads.

Even though the bandh is unlikely to hit normal life in coastal Karnataka, stones were pelted on a Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet.

Bengaluru, Apr 10: A Karnataka BJP MP's daughter who recovered from COVID-19 has said she did yoga and ''pranayama'' while in hospital quarantine and these were key to defeating the pandemic.

"I was there in the hospital for 14 days. I used to do Yoga and Pranayama. It helps a lot. Everyone should start doing it now," said Ashwini GS, daughter of Davangere MP GM Siddeshwara.

In a video message that went viral on Thursday, she said coronavirus was "not something to be feared and yoga, pranayama and a strong mental state are the key to defeat the pandemic."

Ms Ashwini tested positive for COVID-19 after she had returned from Guyana last month. She was admitted to the SS Hospital in Davangere where she was quarantined for 14 days.

"Throughout my stay in the hospital I did not have any symptom of coronavirus. I neither sneezed, nor coughed or had a running nose. There was no fever either," Ms Ashwini said.

However, she kept herself physically and mentally fit.

"Maintain social distancing, be aware of dos and don'ts and stay safe," the MP's daughter said.

The AYUSH Ministry's protocol has outlined measures to build a strong immune system and it included consuming warm water, practising yogasana, pranayama and meditation for 30 minutes every day.
