Udupi, Apr 10: Karnataka BJP secretary and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has accused the chief minister Siddaramaiah-led government of misusing administrative machinery.

"The government officials were removing the BJP's symbol and saffron flags even from private buildings across Udupi and Bagalkot districts and painting them with black colour," she said after receiving rice at the residence of Shivakumar at Gangasandra as part of Mushti Akki Abhiyana.

She said that the party gave tickets based on surveys.

"I am now serving as an MP and I haven't sought the party ticket for the Assembly polls," she said.

Three women figured in the BJP's first list and more women would figure in the next lists, she said.

"There are many contenders in several Assembly segments which has led to disappointment. The party will suitably reward those who didn't get the tickets. Leaders should forget differences and work to ensure the party's victory," she said.

Sedition charges against Dr Zafarul Islam Khan for warning bigots sparks row

Newsroom, May 2: The Delhi Police’s move to book Delhi Minorities Commission chairman Zafarul Islam Khan under sedition charges over his social media statement condemning Hindutva bigots has raised many eyebrows.

A pubic statement has been issued in solidarity with Zafarul Islam Khan by a group of NGOs and citizens which condemned the media trial targeting Khan.

The statement demanded legal action against those who are distorting Khan's Facebook post and spreading false propaganda against him.

Delhi Police Special Cell registered the FIR against Khan on the complaint of a Vasant Kunj resident. The complaint came to the Lodhi Colony office of the special cell, after the assistant commissioner of police (ACP) Safdarjung Enclave forwarded it.

The investigation has been handed over to special cell inspector Praveen Kumar.

According to the FIR, Khan has been booked under several sections of the Indian Penal Code -- 124 A (sedition) and 153 A (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc,).

Khan on April 28 had posted controversial comments on his Facebook page. "Mind you, bigots, Indian Muslims have opted until now not to complain to the Arab and Muslim world about your hate campaigns and lynchings and riots. The day they are pushed to do that, bigots will face an avalanche," Khan had written on Facebook.

However, the Delhi Minorities Commission's chief on Friday had apologised for his controversial remark and had said that he never tried to tarnish the image of India. He also removed the controversial post from the social media and issued a prolonged clarification.
