Mangaluru, Sept 1: Union Minister for Statistics and Programme Implementation D V Sadananda Gowda here on Saturday claimed that demonetisation and digital transactions had brought financial discipline leading to growth of gross domestic product.

At the launch of India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) here, Mr. Gowda said his ministry had found that the fears expressed about slowdown in the growth because of demonetisation were unfounded.

In the findings released on Friday, the ministry found the GDP in the first financial quarter at Rs. 33.74 lakh crore, which was 8.2% more than Rs. 31.18 lakh crore in the first quarter of 2017–18. The GDP of the country was expected to grow by 8.5% in the second financial quarter, he said.

“In terms of GDP growth, the country stands at the top among the nations. The neighbouring China has GDP growth of 6.2%,” Mr. Gowda said, and added this had been achieved because of good governance of the National Democratic Alliance government and the financial discipline brought in in the last four years. By preventing interference of middlemen, the government has brought in revenue of Rs. 70,000 crore to the exchequer.

With the intention to take the banking services to the common man, Prime Minister Narendra Modi initiated the opening of Jan Dhan accounts by which 30 crore accounts were opened across the country and nearly Rs. 1,600 crore was deposited. Beginning of operations of India Post Payments Bank was a step towards financial inclusion of rural citizens, he said.

Post Master General (South Karnataka Region) S. Rajendra Kumar said 31 IPPB branches and 124 access points had started operations in Karnataka.

In Dakshina Kannada, the IPPB branch will be at the Balmatta Post Office in Mangaluru with Mangaluru Head Post Office and post offices at Soorinje, Kuthethur and Katipalla would be the access points.

In another three months, all the post offices in Dakshina Kannada would become access points, he said.

Newsroom, Jun 14: Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput, who was found dead in his house in Mumbai’s Bandra today, was heartbroken after the death of his former manager Disha Salian.

34-year-old actor had posted a heartfelt note after her death: “It’s such devastating news. My deepest condolences to Disha’s family and friends. May your soul rest in peace.”

The police are considering 28-year-old Disha’s death as an accidental one and the investigation is on to find if it was a suicide. She died after falling off the 14th floor of a building in Malad, Mumbai on June 8.

It is not yet known if there is any connection between the two deaths. Sushant’s house help reportedly found him hanging inside his room on Sunday and cops are investigating the case. He was recently seen in Nitesh Tiwari’s Chhichhore and more recently on Netflix opposite Jacqueline Fernandez in Drive.

Who is Disha Salian?

Disha Salian hails from Karnataka’s coastal district of Udupi. She was born in 1992 into a business family background. She reportedly migrated to Mumbai with her family at an early age.

After completing her education, she worked in the Times of India Group for more than three years. She went on to become the celebrity manager at Media Vantage.

Apart from Sushant, she had great links with many popular celebrities like Bharti Singh, Alisha Panwar, and others.

Congress creating confusion among Muslim over CAA, claims BSY

News Network

January 5,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 5: BJP leader and Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa once again blamed the Congress of creating 'confusion' among the Muslim community over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act-2019 while launching a door to door campaign to dispel such rumors.

Yediyurappa was on a door-to-door campaign to make people aware of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and to allay their fears.

"Unnecessarily, the members of Congress are creating confusion among the Muslim community. I assure you that not a single Muslim will be affected because of CAA," said B. S. Yediyurappa.

"Almost all previous Prime Ministers have supported it, now Congress is creating a problem so as to create confusion among Muslims. That's why we are out on the door-to-door campaign," he said.

The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019, seeks to grant Indian citizenship to Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014.
