Mysuru, Oct 11: Assuring the agrarian community of protecting their interests, Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Wednesday appealed to the farmers not to take the drastic step.

Addressing the gathering, during the inaugural ceremony of Dasara-2018, he said, “The coalition government in the state is committed to protect the welfare of the farming community and the poor as well. The government is yours. We are making prompt efforts for the welfare of farmers and the poor. Have faith in in the government” Kumaraswamy said.

Kumaraswamy added, he is not handling the chief minister’s position with joy as the farmers and the poor in distress.

“I am not a politician basically. I never thought of entering politics. But, I entered politics and became chief minister twice, accidentally. I have prayed the goddess to give me strength to serve the people,” he said.

District in-charge Minister G T Devegowda said, the coalition government has introduced several pro-people programmes.

“The chief minister has announced a budgetary allocation of Rs 545 crore to provide drinking water in the region. Similarly, Rs 500 crore is earmarked for the development of Mysuru and Rs 6.85 crore to provide drinking water to the villages under Chamundi Hill Gram Panchayat,” he said.

Stop Mahisha Dasara: MP

MP Pratap Simha said, a few organisations have been celebrating Mahisha Dasara since a few years atop the Chamundi Hill. Mahisha is a demon and the government should not allow them to celebrate Mahisha Dasara.

Without taking the name of Tipu Sultan, the MP said, the Mysuru state suffered between 1761 and 1799, so the government should stop celebrating tyrants.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 42-year-old founding director of an engineering consultancy firm lost Rs 65,000 to online fraudsters who posed as representatives of a mobile service provider and lured him with the offer of a fancy number recently.

Asif (name changed) received a text message on May 19, informing him that a platinum number, 9099999999, was available and interested people could dial a mobile number to avail it.

“Asif, who runs a mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) engineering consultancy near Shivajinagar, decided to get the fancy mobile number. He called the number and the receiver said they would generate an invoice for his request. After a fake invoice for Rs 64,900 was generated, Asif paid the money through online transaction that day. Asif waited for two weeks for the SIM card with the fancy number to reach him,” an officer said.

East CEN Crime police registered a case of cheating under section 420 of IPC and sections under the Information Technology Act after Asif lodged a complaint on June 6.
