Puttur Block Congress Committee former president Kavu Hemanath Shetty and few leaders on Tuesday told reporters they are all set to write to KPCC and AICC against Poojary for making remarks on party leaders. Hemanath Shetty, who sought disciplinary action against Poojary, also has warned that party workers will stage a black flag protest at programmes that Poojary attends.

Senior Congress leader and former MLA K Vijayakumar Shetty told reporters on Thursday that Hemanath Shetty has no moral right to speak about Poojary. "It is a fact known to the nation that Poojary is a honest and selfless political leader. Poojary has no hesitation to speak against any political party leaders when they are at fault. Poojary has shown courage to speak even against his own party as he is a honest leader," Vijayakumar Shetty said.

Another senior Congress leader Kallige Tharanath Shetty too condemned the accusations made by Hemanath Shetty. "Veteran politicians like Poojary and Kagodu Thimmappa are guiding the party leadership by pointing out mistakes. Poojary has the strength and courage to speak when party leaders err. Hemanath Shetty has been speaking against Poojary on the instruction of some other powerful leaders. Let those instigating Hemanath Shetty come for an open debate," he said.

Puttur Block Congress president Fazal Rahman said, "Hemanath Shetty, who is only a primary member of the party at present, has no moral right to talk about Poojary." It may be added here that Hemanath Shetty had invited the wrath of party leaders after he launched Bharatiya Hindu Parishat in Puttur to counter the VHP.

New Delhi, May 29: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has imposed a monetary penalty of Rs 1.2 crore on Karnataka Bank Limited for non-compliance of asset classification, divergence and provisioning norms.

"The penalty has been imposed in exercise of powers vested in RBI under the provisions of Section 47 A (1) (c) read with Section 46 (4) (i) of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. 

This action is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers," the central bank said in a statement on Thursday.

According to the central bank, the statutory inspection of the bank with reference to its financial position as on March 31, 2017, and as on March 31, 2018, and the Risk Assessment Reports (RAR) pertaining thereto revealed, inter-alia, non-compliance with the directions issued by RBI.

Earlier, a notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed on it for non-compliance with the directions.

After considering the bank's reply to the notice, oral submissions made in the personal hearing and examination of additional submissions, RBI concluded that the charges of non-compliance with RBI directions warranted imposition of monetary penalty, according to a release.

This action is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers.
