Mangalore, November 12: Former Union Minister and senior Congress leader B. Janardhan Poojary has demanded revoking of the bail granted to former chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa in the corruption cases, as he is "likely to destory evidences related to the charges slapped against him"

Addressing presspersons in Mangalore, Mr. Poojary on Friday said there was a conspiracy behind the transfer of Additional Director General of Police Jeevan Kumar V. Gaonkar from the post he held as the top officer in the Lokayukta.

This is enough proff that he would destroy evidence and hence advocate Sirajin Pasha should approach Supreme Court demanding withdrawal of bail to Mr. Yeddyurappa.

A case should be filed against the Chief Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda and BJP president K.S. Eshwrappa for meeting Yeddyurappa when he was in the judicial custody.

"The chief minister should reveal the reason behind the transfer of Lokayukta officials. If not, it is clear that the transfer had political motive," the veteran leader observed.

Mr. Gowda is being used to cover the mistakes of Mr. Yeddyurappa, he alleged.

Criticising BJP and the civil society members involved in anti-corruption agitatilon, Mr. Poojary said he wanted to know the reaction of L.K. Advani to the present situation in Karnataka since he had passed through the state recently as part of his yatra against corruption.

"Why Anna Hazare and Sri Sri Ravi Shankar are tightlipped about the corruption prevailing in Karnataka," he asked.

Accusing Ravi Shankar of being a Sangh Parivar supporter, Mr. Poojary said, the spiritual guru did not have any moral right to talk about corruption in Uttar Pradesh, when he was silent about the state of affairs in Karnataka.

Bengaluru, May 2: The Centre’s classification of districts created confusion in Karnataka as the state’s own categorisation deviates significantly from the health ministry’s list.

For instance, the Centre put the number of districts in the red zone in state at three, while the state Covid-19 war room puts it at 14. Bengaluru Urban and Mysuru figure in the red zone in both lists. While Bengaluru Rural with zero active cases on May 1makes it to the Centre’s red-zone list, it is in the orange zone according to the state.

In addition to these two, the state classifies Belagavi, Kalaburagi, Vijayapura, Bagalkot, Mandya, Bidar, Dakshina Kannada, Chikkaballapura, Dharwad, Gadag, Tumakuru and Davanagere as red-zone districts.

State Covid war-room authorities said they would take a look at the Centre’s criteria for classification and take a call. Besides, incharge Munish Mudgil pointed out that states are allowed to make additions to the red and orange zones. According to the Centre’s list, Karnataka has 13 districts in the orange zone and 14 in the green zone.

Sudan said, “the districts were earlier designated as hotspots or red zones, orange zones and green zones primarily based on the cumulative cases reported and the doubling rate. Since recovery rates have gone up, the districts are now being designated across various zones duly broad-basing the criteria.

This classification takes into consideration incidence of cases, doubling rate, extent of testing and surveillance feedback. A district will be considered under the green zone if there are no confirmed cases so far or if there is no reported case in the past 21 days.”
