chaitra1Bengaluru, Aug 12: The 21-year-old wife of a KAS officer allegedly committed suicide by hanging at a PG accommodation in Sanjaynagar police station limits on Wednesday. It is alleged that harassment by her husband is the reason for the suicide. The deceased has been identified as Chaitra, a resident of Nagarabavi. She was the wife of Niranjan Babu, a KAS officer posted in the land acquisition wing of the BDA.

According to the police, Chaitra had shifted to the PG accommodation for working women on July 31. As she did not come out of her room on Wednesday, the other inmates grew suspicious and knocked at the door. As there was no response, they peeped through a window and found her hanging. They immediately alerted the police.

“It is learnt that Chaitra got married to Niranjan Babu two years ago and had separated from him a year ago over differences. She was living with her parents in Nagarabavi and then moved to the PG accommodation. Before taking the extreme step, she had contacted her mother over the phone. Though her mother had asked her to return home, she had refused,” the police said.

“Chaitra's father Jayakumar is a D' Group employee in Karnataka State Warehousing Corporation. She was a stenographer on contract basis in the same office. When Niranjan was working there, they both fell in love and got married in Tirupati,” the police added.

“Jayakumar has filed a complaint stating that Niranjan and his mother were harassing Chaitra. Unable to bear it, she had left them and this led to her suicide. Niranjan is absconding and efforts are on to trace him,” the Sanjaynagar police said. Further investigations are on.

Bengaluru, Feb 10: The Rashtriya Swyamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Sunday conducted a route march (Pathsanchalan) in Ramanagara to express solidarity with the anti-Christian forces protesting against a project to install 114-feet tall Jesus Christ statue atop Kapalabetta in Harobele town in Kanakapura taluk in Ramanagara district.

Hindutva ideologue Kalladka Prabhakara Bhat, who had led a rally in Kanakapura last month against the project, also led the Sunday’s route march and addressed a public meeting following the march.

“The district name is Ramanagara, but they have not nurtured the culture of Ram here. They have developed a strong culture of Ravana, which we pledged to dislodge,” Bhat told the gathering.

He said the Sangh Parivar will never allow the statue to come up as he said it would foment religious conversion that is rampant in Harobele.

“The so called Kapalabetta is of stones, which are revered as Lord Muneswara by the Hindus. This hillock must be named as Muneswara Betta,” he added.

Referring to the ongoing protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), Bhat said the law was brought in to protect the Hindu minority in Pakistan and Bangla Desh.

“The Muslims living in India hail Pakistan. But when we ask them to go to Pakistan, they will never go,” he took a jibe at the minority community.

Reacting to the RSS route march, senior Congress functionary DK Shivakunar, who represents Kanakapura assembly seat, said the Sangah Parivar is trying to disturb the communal harmony in the district and they will never succeed in it.

“The BJP is operating through the Sangh Parivar in the Ramanagara district. The party has won as may as 26 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka, still they are doing all these things to keep their support base. People of Ramanagara will never back them,” said Shivakumar.
