Udupi, Apr 4: Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has charged the ruling Congress in Karnataka of misusing Karnataka Minorities Development Corporation funds for electoral purposes.

Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, Shobha, who is also the state BJP general secretary, said the Corporation recently provided Rs 18.75 lakh each to 94 Congress MLAs under the Shramashakti scheme.

Under this scheme, minority artisans are trained to upgrade their artistic and technical skills to carry on with their trade and, a loan up to Rs 25,000 is provided at a low rate of interest.

According to Shobha, Rs 18.75 lakh was provided to the each of the MLAs without even identifying beneficiaries in their constituencies. Besides, only the Congress MLAs got the grants make the malafide intention of ruling dispensation clear, she charged.

The BJP leader said that as per rules the corporation has to draw the list of eligible beneficiaries after inviting applications. The MLA can only ratify the list. However, in this case the list was drawn by the MLAs themselves and even the beneficiaries were not identified.

Shobha charged that the grants were being diverted for election purposes. She sought the intervention of the Election Commission of India (ECI) in the issue.

Shoba is correct in her statement.  She should be made care taker of all Govt Funds as there is no decent / impartial / noble / sincere / people lover / patriot person like her in whole of India.  She never ever misused Govt fund and she deserves to be made as care taker of Govt fund.  Karnataka Govt should nominate her to this position immediately.

New Delhi, Feb 20: The Supreme Court on Thursday stayed the non-bailable warrants issued against the state Director General of Police (DGP) and Inspector General of Police (IGP) by the Karnataka High Court.

A bench of Chief Justice SA Bobde stayed the non-bailable warrants while hearing a plea filed by the Karnataka government.

Earlier today, the apex court had agreed to hear the matter today itself after Solicitor General Tushar Mehta mentioned the matter before it.

Tushar Mehta had pointed that Home Secretary has been asked by the High Court to execute the non-bailable warrants and said that this order is "unusual".

Karnataka High Court had earlier issued non-bailable warrants against the top cops in a case.
