Belagavi, Mar 5: Days after a young Hindutva activist was arrested in Udupi for recording and spreading a pro-Pakistan video to defame Muslims in the region, the Karnataka police have cracked a similar case in Belagavi district by arresting another miscreant.

The accused is Nagaraj Mali, a resident of Kankanwadi in Ramdurg taluk. According to police, he hacked the Facebook of his Muslim friend Mohammad Shafi Benne of Ramdurg and posted pro-Pakistan messages with malicious intent.

During interrogation Nagaraj admitted that he committed the crime to take revenge against his friend after he refused to lend money. He was remanded to judicial custody.

Mohammad Shafi, who was shocked to notice anti-India and pro-Pakistan messages on his Facebook wall, had filed a complaint, saying his account was hacked. Subsequently, it came to light that the posts had been uploaded from a device other than his mobile phone.

Addressing media persons on Monday, Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy said the police, on Sunday evening, detained Nagaraj, who was running a computer centre and had created the Facebook account for Mohammad Shafi. After suffering losses Nagaraj closed down the centre. He was earlier a Congress worker but gradually became closer to Hindutva groups.

Mohammad Shafi had given monetary assistance to Nagaraj, but distanced himself from him after the latter sought more money. The police have booked a case under various sections of the IT Act.

Karnataka Election Commission postpones gram panchayat polls

News Network

May 28,2020

May 28: The Karnataka State Election Commission on Thursday announced postponement of gram panchayat polls citing the COVID-19 pandemic.

Out of 6,025 gram panchayats, the tenure of 5,800 gram panchayats will end by June-August 2020.

"After examining the feasibility of conducting general elections to gram panchayats, the State Election Commission, considering the current situation as exceptional circumstance, has decided to temporarily postpone the general elections to the gram panchayats," the SEC said in a release.

It said after examining the situation in the days to come, the decision will be taken on holding the general elections to the gram panchayats.

The CEC also states that report by Deputy Commissioners of districts on holding the elections was verified and it has been found that district administrations are involved in COVID-19 related work and there will be shortage of staff and transport facilities for the elections. Besides, there would be a problem in maintaining law and order.

Last week through a letter to Deputy Commissioners of districts, the commission had sought opinion on holding panchayat polls amid the COVID-19 crisis. It had also pointed out that electoral roll needs to be prepared and reservations had to be allocated as per the new amendments.

Stating that the state election commission's decision to postpone gram panchayat elections was against the provisions of the Karnataka Panchayat Raj Act 1993, the Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah said the Congress will question this "undemocratic act" in the court of law.

He accused the commission of playing to the BJP's tune and said the congress will protest the decision at gram panchayat level.

Opposition parties in the state, especially congress, have been demanding elections.

The government was in favour of postponement of polls and wants to have administrative committees to govern the panchayats, until the polls are held, according to government sources.

The Congress, raising apprehension about administrative committees, has accused the government of conspiring to have ruling BJP workers as its members.

A congress delegation had last week submitted a petition to State Election Commissioner B Basavaraju and urged the Commission to hold elections.

The congress had even suggested continuation of sitting panchayat members until the polls are held, instead of appointing administrative committees.
