Hassan, Nov 3: Former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda on Saturday alleged that Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa indulged in horse-trading to form BJP-led government in Karnataka for which a case should be registered against him.

"Karnataka government in the leadership of Yediyurappa came to power because of many dirty malpractices. A case should be registered against him the way it happened in Uttarakhand horse-trading case," the JD(S) leader told ANI here.

Gowda was reacting to an audio-tape in which the Chief Minister was purportedly heard saying that he and BJP president Amit Shah was involved were involved in the resignation 17 Congress-JD(S) government.

The Congress-JD(S) MLAs were disqualified by the then Assembly Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar, bringing down the HD Kumaraswamy government in July this year.

Congress has handed over a written complaint to Governor Vajubhai Vala and said that it will take the matter to President Ram Nath Kovind.

Meanwhile, Congress leader Dinesh Gundu Rao on Sunday said that the party will submit the audio-tape in the Supreme Court which is hearing a case of the 17 Congress-JD(S) MLAs.

Yediyurappa should be sentenced jail term for his irregularities and misuse of power.  Its seems that jail is the best and suitable place for him.  Jail is made for him and he is made for jail. I also hope that Yedi was in jail for hyears in his last life and hence jail is not willing to be him away from it.   Wecome Yedi in jail.  Wish you all the best.

Tightening control over companies misleading advertisements of medicines and products, the Indian government could soon slap a fine of up to Rs10 lakh and up to two years' imprisonment. While repeat offender could be fined up to Rs50 and imprisonment up to five years.

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare's new draft of the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) (Amendment) Bill, 2020, provides extremely stringent penalties compared to the current law.

Under the new Act, companies advertising medicines and products falsely claiming to make a person fairer, improve height and memory or cure issues like hair loss or greying and premature ageing, among several others, may attract more stringent fines and jail time.

The current Act, 1954, leaves scope for companies to create deceptive advertisements as first time offender can be jailed for six months while repeat offender can be up to one year in prison, reported The Indian Express.

Under the Bill, deceptive advertisements will cover digital advertising, notice, circular, label, wrapper, invoice, banner and poster, among others. The government also plans to expand the scope of the law under the proposed amendments to cover 24 more deceptive claims not included in the current law, like medicines that can cure AIDS, change the sex of a foetus, among others, reported Livemint.
