Hubballi, Jan 20: Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Jagadish Shettar on Thursday charged that the government was purposely trying to keep the post of the Lokayukta vacant.

jagadishHe told mediapersons here that the government did not want to appoint anybody to the post.

As the post of Lokayukta is vacant for the past one year, many complaints have not been attended to. The chief minister is not in favour of disposing those complaints. Hence, he recommended the name of Justice Vishwanath Shetty against whom there are some charges.

The chief minister should again call a meeting of the committee concerned to discuss the appointment of Lokayukta, Shettar said. Issues like arrest of MLA?Raju Kage and Sangolli Rayanna Brigade would be discussed in the BJP core committee meeting to be held in Kalaburagi on Friday, he added.

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 28: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has sought Prime Minister Narendra Modi's intervention to remove the blocking of roads including state highway along the border of Karnataka in view of lock down to contain the spread of COVID-19.

In a letter sent to the Prime Minister on Friday evening, the Chief Minister said certain actions by the Karnataka Police have resulted in the blocking the Thalassery-Coorg State Highway-30. This road connects Kerala with Coorg in Karnataka via Veerajapettah. This route is a lifeline for flow of essential commodities to Kerala."

"If this is blocked, vehicles carrying essential commodities will have to travel a much longer route to reach our state. Given the situation of national lock down, this will add much more hardship to people," it said.

"You will naturally agree with me that no action impeding the movement of essential commodities should be initiated at this moment of crisis," he hoped.
