Mangaluru, Nov 30: U T Khader, minister for urban development, housing and Dakshina Kannada district in-charge, handed over a cheque of Rs 1 lakh as a reward for Panambur police, who through a swift action were successful in arresting seven accused in gang rape of a woman at Thota Bengre beach in Mangaluru.

The cheque was handed over to City Police Commissioner T R Suresh.

Speaking on the occasion, the minister said that the reward was announced on the part of the citizens of Dakshina Kannada district. “I paid Rs 1 lakh from my salary on behalf of the citizens of the district. The police took over the case suo motu without receiving any complaint from the victim. Their swift action in arresting all the accused youth is praiseworthy,” he said.

He said that the victim is paid compensation of Rs 4.12 lakh from Karntaka State Legal Services Authority. The remaining Rs 4.13 lakh will be paid to the victim after the filing of a charge sheet to the court.

Khader said he had appealed to the advocates not to defend the youth named in the gang rape case. “This was to ensure that offenders have a fear of law and fear that there is no one to defend them in the court to come out on bail. My statement on not to defend accused was to reflect commonman’s perspective and to instil a fear among anti-social elements that there is none to defend him in the court, to get bail.”

Bengaluru, Feb 11: Onion price dropped to Rs 25-30 per kg on Monday, down from the dizzying Rs 200/kg in December and January. The price had spiked because of excess rain, which ruined the crop in several parts of the country.

With supply stabilising, especially from Maharashtra and northern Karnataka, and exports banned, the rate is now easing, officials said.

Consumers may be smiling but farmers are worried as they are not able to make more than Rs 17/kg as against the expected Rs 40.

"We get onions from Nasik and Sholapur in Maharashtra. Nasik onions used to be exported but since that is currently banned, they are landing in Bengaluru, leaving the market here with a surplus," said K Lokesh, president, Karnataka State Onion Merchants Association.

A farmer from Sholapur wh o was part of a onion growers' delegation which met traders in Bengaluru, said, "The cost of everything has gone up. Labour charges and fuel prices are draining us. How can we survive? How can I pay for my children's education?"

Another Sholapur farmer rued: "My daughter's wedding is in March. How am I going to meet all the expenses? I have to pay for labour, transportation, gunny bags and when everything adds up, I don't get to save more than Rs 30,000 in a month."
