Madikeri, Sept 28: A police constable attached to the Ponnampete police station in Kodagu district has been suspended for his Facebook post on Indian army’s protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi led-union government’s policies.

Constable Shamim had shared the post he had received from others against the Prime Minister. The shared post mentioned protests by the Army, and asked, “Have you seen protests by Armymen earlier? Have you heard of such things? Does the Modi government need more shame than this one?”

Taking exception to his post, one B S Nandakumar from Madikeri, who claims himself to be an RTI activist, had filed a complaint with Superintendent of Police, Kodagu, P. Rajendra Prasad.

Confirming the suspension of Shamim pending an inquiry, Prasad said that a member of the police force should not identify himself with any party or ideology, which amounts to indiscipline under the Karnataka Police Act.

Bengaluru, June 14: Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa-led BJP government of Karnataka has once again urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led union BJP government to release GST compensation worth Rs 10,208 crore that is due for the state.

The request was placed with Finance Minister Niramala Sitharaman during the 40th GST council meeting, in which Karnataka Home Minister and state’s representative to the council, Basavaraj Bommai, participated.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Bommai said that Rs 10,208 crore was due from the Centre as GST compensation for four four months - from March to May.

“We have requested the Centre to release Rs 1,460 crore - pertaining to GST compensation for the month of March - as soon as possible due to the dire financial conditions of the state,” he said.

Bommai said that the state was confident that the funds will be released soon, noting that Karnataka had recently received Rs 4,314 in GST compensation for three months, between December 2019 to February 2020.

Meanwhile, the state also proposed the Council to reduce penalty for delay in filing GST. Bommai said that while people are made to pay 18% of the tax as fine in delay in payment, Karnataka has asked the Centre to reduce the percentage by half to 9%.
