Nagma asks Tamils to remember Kannadigas' help during Chennai floods

September 8, 2016

Bengaluru, Sep 8: Actress-turned-politician Nagma has requested the people of Tamil Nadu to remember the helping hand given by Karnataka when Chennai and a few other places were affected by floods in 2015.

ngma At a press meet, Nagma stated that Tamil Nadu received a lot of help from Karnataka and especially from the people of Bengaluru. She also pointed out that her party will treat both the states equally.

"For the Congress, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu are treated equally. Congress is impartial. The water dispute is a complex issue," The News Minute quoted the actress as saying at the press meet.

Nagma took potshots at the Prime Minister as she said that people took of stock of situations from the air when Chennai was badly affected by the unprecedented floods last year. But her party General Secretary Rahul Gandhi was on the ground to assess the situation.

The Supreme Court directed the Karnataka government to release 15,000 cusecs of Cauvery water per day to Tamil Nadu for 10 days recently. This has lead to massive protests by pro-Kannada groups and farmers in Karnataka. They have given a call for bandh on Friday, Sept.9.

However, Karnataka released water from the Cauvery river to Tamil Nadu amid massive protests against the Supreme Court order. "With a heavy heart we are releasing additional water in deference to the SC direction. I appeal to farmers to be calm and restrained," Chief Minister Siddaramaiah tweeted.

The Karnataka government is also planning to approach the Cauvery Supervisory Committee to explain the present situation and also file a petition for a modification in the order. Siddaramaiah further tweeted: "We will apprise the supervisory committee and the Supreme Court of the distress on the ground."

I got Rs 12 lakh to help terrorists to carry out R-Day terror attack: DSP Davinder Singh

coastaldigest.com news network

January 14,2020

Srinagar, Jan 14: Davinder Singh, deputy superintendent of police, who was arrested on Saturday along with two Hizb terrorists and a Hizb overground worker in Kulgam, has confessed to his interrogators that he had received Rs 12 lakh from the terrorists to ferry them to Jammu and then Chandigarh for their onward journey to New Delhi, IG (Kashmir) Vijay Kumar told the media here on Monday.

Intelligence sources said the terrorists planned to carry out attacks on Republic Day.

The DSP was suspended on Monday and is likely to be stripped of all his awards, including the President’s Police Medal for anti-militancy operations.

Davinder, who was interrogated by various intelligence agencies, including IB, military intelligence and RAW, besides the police, has disclosed that he had put up the terrorists at his Indira Nagar house in Srinagar, right next to the Army’s 15 Corps HQ, and thereafter accompanied them to Jammu in a Maruti car driven by the Hizb overground worker, intelligence sources claimed.

Meanwhile, sources said the Union home ministry may hand over the case to the NIA to find the real motive of the terrorists, Davinder’s links to terrorism and whether he had helped terrorists in the past as well.

The two Hizb terrorists arrested with Davinder are Naveed Babu alias Babar Azam, a resident of Nazneenpora in south Kashmir’s Shopian district, and his associate Rafi Ahmad Rather. The Hizb overground worker, identified as Irfan Shafi Mir, was driving the vehicle when it was intercepted by the police on Saturday. Irfan Shafi Mir has travelled to Pakistan five times on his passport.

Davinder, interestingly, was on duty ensuring security cover for the envoys of 15 countries who visited Srinagar at the Union government’s invitation last week.
