No action against land encroachments by rich'

April 5, 2011

Mangalore, April 5: Karnataka Prantha Raitha Sangha district general secretary Yadav Shetty condemned the move of authorities to target small encroachments of land by siteless and houseless poor, while turning blind eye to large scale encroachment of land by the rich.



Addressing a ward level meeting organized by DYFI Shaktinagar unit on the problem faced by the houseless poor here recently, Shetty termed the move by the authorities as inhuman.


Muneer Katipalla, District Convener of the DYFI said that Indian constitution has given equal rights to lead a dignified life for every citizen. However ruling governments have thrown it to the wind, he said. He called upon the people to fight collectively for the rights.



DYFI leaders BK Imthiyaz, Santhosh Bajal, Navin Konchady, Vasudva JP, Umesh Boly and others were present.

Bengaluru, Apr 11: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D K Shivakumar on Saturday lodged a complaint with Director General and Inspector General of Police Praveen Sood seeking action against four BJP leaders for their alleged communal statements.

In his petition, Mr Shivakumar cited remarks made by BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje, former union minister Anant kumar Hegde, MP Renukacharya and MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal were ''vituperative statements'' which were offences under Section 153A of the IPC.

The Congress leader alleged that the four leaders ''joined in a criminal conspiracy to create enmity between Hindus and the minority community.''

Bengaluru, Feb 19: A public interest litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Karnataka High Court, seeking a stay on Anand Singh functioning as Minister of Forests, Environment and Ecology contending that there are criminal cases filed against him by the Ministry.

"A stay be granted prohibiting Anand Singh from functioning as the Cabinet Minister for the Ministry of Forests, Environment and Ecology. Any other order that the Honourable Court may deem fit in the interest of justice and equity," the PIL prays.

The petition, filed by advocate Vijay Kumar, said that the Chief Minister has allocated the portfolio of the Ministry of Forests, Environment and Ecology to Singh without considering the fact that there are several criminal faces filed against him by the Ministry.

It said that the allocation of the Ministry of Forests, Environment and Ecology portfolio to Singh is in the conflict of interest.

"The holding of the post of Cabinet minister for the Ministry of Forests, Environment and Ecology is against public interest and completely in conflict of interest as he has business for which the subject Ministry is the overseeing authority and further he will also have access to the case files which again is in conflict of interest," the PIL said.

PIL adds that "it is pertinent and absolutely necessary" to deny the incumbent from accessing files related to his cases and from taking any decisions which may provide him with pecuniary benefits through his businesses.
