Udupi, Jun 30: Anupama Shenoy, former Deputy Superintendent of Police of Kudligi sub-division in Karnataka's Ballari district, on Thursday said she was a victim of both the system and corrupt politics.anupama3006

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, Jul 7: There seems no impact of Covid-19 on kharif crop sowing in Karnataka with the current year actually being ahead of previous years, according to an official here on Monday.

"In agriculture, as far as sowing is concerned, there is no impact of COVID-19," Agriculture Commissioner Brijesh Kumar Dikshit told IANS. One of the reasons, according to Dikshit, is that people in rural areas are aware, but not scared of the pandemic.

"In rural India, coronavirus is there. People are aware, not scared. They are taking precautions, but don't have any phobia," he said.

Another reason was that by June the number of infections in Karnataka was not as high as other states, when a lot of sowing was done, he said.

By the end of June, Karnataka saw 15,242 Covid-19 cases. Of that, 7,074 were active.

The sowing is ahead of previous year as it's mostly dependent on weather. "It's ahead of previous years. Agriculture is directed by weather and rains had been slightly earlier this year," he said.

According to Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre, at 185 mm the state received 14 mm less rain in June against the normal 199 mm. "It's like a normal year, or slightly a good year," he said.

Some crops will be sown in the last fortnight of July and few more will extend up to August 15. "The last two weeks will be critical and on July 31 we should be able to tell whether we are short or ahead," he said.

According to preliminary indications, the Commissioner said the area under agriculture is increasing this year, which could also be because that labourers might have come back.

What benefit govt is giving us so that we can transfer the same goodness to our workers? Or are the funds only to buy and sell MLA?
