Mysuru, Sept 5: Kannada writer and Hindutva advocate S L Bhyrappa has demanded direct flight from Mysuru to Mangaluru and Hubballi instead of flight service between Mysuru and Bengaluru.

Speaking at the launch of 'You Cannot Miss This Flight', essays on Emerging India, organised by Mysuru Literary Forum Charitable Trust Book Clubs and Harper Collins Publishers at a private hotel, here he said that will not prefer to take a flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to the cities are more

"People, who developed flights between Mysuru and Bengaluru are fools. Mysuru Airport is far from the city and nearer to Nanjangud. Similarly, Bengaluru Airport is in Devanahalli and no one will take flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to cities is more," he said.

Suggesting that flights must be introduced between Mysuru and Mangaluru or Hubballi, Bhyrappa said, road connectivity between Mysuru and Mangaluru is not good.

"The officials should guide the politicians in policy matters but, in India, the officials are not working properly. Majority of the politicians are not intelligent and need guidance. Though Prime Minister Narendra Modi is better compared to others, the officials failed to implement various programmes introduced by the PM," Bhyrappa said.

Bengaluru, Jan 24: Karnataka High Court on Friday ordered notice to the state government and self-styled godman Swami Nithyananda while hearing a petition seeking cancellation of bail granted to him.

A petition was filed in the Karnataka High Court on Friday seeking cancellation of bail granted to Nithyananda for skipping the trial and fleeing the country.

Justice John Michael Cunha, after hearing the complainant, ordered issuance of notice to the state government and Nithyananda and posted the matter for hearing next week.

The petition, filed by K Lenin, alleged that Nithyananda has been skipping trial and has fled the country on an expired passport.

The plea further said that Nithyananda was making false representations in his "exemption petitions to the trial court as if he is still in India".

Interpol has also issued a 'blue corner notice' to locate the self-styled godman, who is facing trial in a criminal case, on the request of Gujarat Police.

Mangaluru, May 22: An elderly cardiac patient from Dakshina Kannada, who was stranded in Saudi Arabia due to covid-19 lock-down, has finally reached his homeland thanks to the timely intervention by Humanity Forum Jubail and Indian Social Forum.

The elderly man hailing from Kadaba area of Dakshina Kannada was admitted to a hospital in Madinah. However, his condition continued to worsen due to lack of proper treatment. The efforts by his family members to bring him back home had not yielded results.

Meanwhile, one of the relatives of the patient, Ansari Suratkal, who happens to be a DKSC activist, brought the issue to the notice of the Karnataka unit of the Indian Social Forum in Dammam. ISF contacted Humanity Forum president Zakariya Jokatte, who helped the patient to speak directly union minister D V Sadananda Gowda in a video conference organised by coastaldigest.com.

Humanity Forum also persuaded the Indian Embassy to allow the stranded cardiac patient to fly back to India through Dammam-Bengaluru repatriation flight on May 20. 

However, it was not easy for the patient to travel from Madinah to Dammam International Airport due to lock-down and curfew. ISF not only obtained travel permission for him but also arranged vehicle. Jeddah and Riyadh units of ISF helped in obtaining permission letter in their respective places in spite of travel ban imposed by the police. Madinah unit of ISF arranged vehicle for transportation. Zakariya Jokatte bore the air ticket and other expenses of the patient.
