Ballari, Nov 1: Former police officer Anupama Shenoy, who could not get expected support from the BJP even after making a series of allegations against the Congress government of Karnataka, on Wednesday launched her own political party at Kudligi in Ballari district. 

Formally launching Bharatiya Jana Shakthi Congress (BJSC), Anupama said that the new party intends to make the Karnataka a liquor-free state in stages. She said that her party would endorse Mahatma Gandhiji's concept of Gram Swarajya. 

A few weeks ago, Anupama had claimed that her new party would contest all 224 seats in 2018 Karnataka Assembly polls. A couple of days ago, she stated that her party would field candidates in 80 seats across Karnataka. However, on the day of party launch, she said that the details of how many seats her party would contest and from which districts will be decided at a later date.

Anupama, who hails from Udupi district, was serving as the Deputy Superintendent of Police in Kudligi sub-division when she quit the police department. She had accused the senior officers of harassing her and not forcing her to withdraw resignation.

Anupama is one of the three children of Radhakrishna (63), who runs a canteen at Uchila village in Udupi district. Her elder brother Aravind is an electronics engineer in Malaysia and the other Achutha is a field engineer. After BSc, Anupama completed Masters in Social Work before clearing the KAS examination.

Super star upendra also launched his new political party. I hope BJP votes will divide and BJP will vanish from indian politics. People of india including Bhakts must realise that BJP is only good for industrialist not for common people.

Mangaluru, Mar 10: Tension prevailed in the city after an international flyer quarantined at the District Wenlock Hospital walked out of the facility.

The passenger, with a recent travel history to high-risk countries, refused to cooperate with health officials. The day-long drama ended when the district administration intervened and the flyer agreed to get himself re-admitted.

Deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh said the passenger had fever and was sent to an isolation ward. “The passenger is cooperating with the treatment and samples have been collected for testing,” she said. The samples will be sent to a testing centre in Bengaluru.

Sources told  that rude behaviour by staff at Mangalore International Airport may have angered the passenger and he walked out of the quarantine facility.

She said if passengers show reluctance to be screened, they should first be counselled and allowed to get themselves admitted to a hospital of their choice with quarantine facility. If they still refuse to cooperate, they will have to be hospitalised forcefully, she added.
