Shenoy, who had written to the Karnataka State Commission for Women accusing a senior official of 'harassment' on duty, said, "I am a victim of both the system and corrupt politics."

She has accused Ballari Superintendent of Police R Chetan of harassing her because of political pressure.

In a letter dated June 4, addressed to the chairperson of the Karnataka State Commission for Women, Shenoy directly accused Chetan of harassing her while she was discharging her duties as Deputy Superintendent of Police.

Speaking to media, she said she was just trying to put forward her grievances. "If at all I get justice, it would be great," she said.

"The entire society, and the system, is male dominated. The system is acting to the tune of male ideas. Through this, I am hoping that the system may find some way so that any lady officer, if they are having any grievances, can find a solution," she added.

She also said that she decided to resign and carry this fight forward to express her views. "At least I have mental peace. Job did not provide me any mental peace," she said.

Manjula Mansa, Karnataka Women's Commission chief, said that they have received all the copies. "After preliminary enquiry, we have adjourned the case till July 16. 14 percent of individual statement is necessary, after that we will summon R Chetan," she said.

In her seven page letter to the commission, Shenoy also accused Chetan of causing 'mental torture' by issuing memos to her for 'silly reasons' on returning to Kudligi after her OOD (On Official Duty) was cancelled by the government, following public pressure.

She had tendered her resignation as the DSP on June 4 as, which was accepted by the state government.

Bengaluru, Jun 4: Leader of Opposition in Karnataka Siddaramaiah on Thursday said it was not appropriate to reopen schools for two more months, given the current rate at which coronavirus infection is spreading.

He also advised Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and Primary and Secondary Education Minister Suresh Kumar not to take any hasty decisions in this regard.

"As corona infection is spreading in the state beyond limits, it is not appropriate to open schools for at least two more months. Chief Minister and Suresh Kumar should not make any hasty decisions," Siddaramaiah tweeted.

Stating that Suresh Kumar has placed a proposal to reopen schools in July, he said the chief minister has to take note of worried parents opposing this proposal.

"There are reports about students getting infected by coronavirus after reopening of schools in countries like Britain, France and Italy. It is appropriate to think about reopening schools on analysing the situation after two months," he said in another tweet.

The state government has sought an opinion from parents and stakeholders regarding reopening of schools in the state, with the easing of the COVID-19 lockdown norms.

Amidst worries and concerns expressed by parents across the state, the Education Minister on Wednesday had assured that the government would not take any hasty decisions regarding reopening of schools.

The Union government, in its recent guidelines, had asked state governments to hold consultation at school, college, training and coaching institutions-level with parents and other stakeholders, and based on the feedback, a decision on reopening them would be taken.
