Two women leaders of Congress have dared and demanded Bharatiya Janata Party leader Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje to speak against the two incidents of gang-rape at Kashmir’s Kathua and UP’s Unnao.

Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee Women’s Wing President Laxmi Hebbalkar speaking to reporters in Bengaluru on Tuesday condemned the incident of gang-rape and murder of eight-year-old girl at Kathua temple and of gang-rape of 17-year-old girl at Unnao by BJP leaders.

“BJP is in power in both the states. BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar has been named as accused in the Unnao case,” she pointed out.

Karandlaje who during other times speaks a lot should now come forward and talk about the two incidents of rape and condemn them. Its right time that she raises her voice for women’s cause, she said.

On the other hand State Congress Women's Committee general secretary Pratibha Kulai, speaking to media persons in Mangaluru slammed the silence of BJP leaders including Shobha Karandlaje who are known for communalising the crimes committed by individuals of other communities.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: The National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), which met with officials of the Social Welfare Department Thursday, has urged the state government to increase the reservation provided to the ST community.

The Commission's suggestion comes even as a committee headed by Justice Nagamohan Das is currently studying a demand for increase of reservation for the community from the existing 3% to 7.5%.

Addressing mediapersons on Thursday, Commission Chairperson Nand Kumar Sai, said the Commission had discussed the issue with the Social Welfare Department, Karnataka, asking officials to expedite the process.

In response to this suggestion, Social Welfare Department Principal Secretary G Kumar Naik said the government would take a call based on the Nagamohan Das Committee's report.

A meeting was held between members of the National ST Commission and the Social Welfare Department Thursday with regard to various projects taken up by the department.

In June last year, the then Kumaraswamy-led coalition government constituted the Justice Nagamohan Das Committee, after protests from members of the Valmiki community for an increase in reservation to 7.5%. At present, Karnataka provides 15% reservation for SCs, 3% for STs and 32% for other backward classes (OBC).

The national commission also urged the state government to ensure permanent faculty in all the 824 residential institutions run by the department. At present, as much as 50% of the faculty in these institutions have been hired on a contractual basis. "We have assured that the recruitment will be done in a short time," Naik told mediapersons.
