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.

Mangaluru, Jan 9: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner has lodged a complaint with the Police alleging that his signature was forged in a holiday circular for schools and colleges in the district during National General Strike called by Trade Unions.

It may be recalled that the district administration had declared a holiday for all educational institutions on December 20 and 21 in the backdrop of the December 19 violence.

A few miscreants had forged this order and circulated it on social media stating that a holiday had been declared for schools and colleges in the district on January 8.

Mangaluru, May 6: The Karnataka NRI Forum - UAE has collected the details of those seeking to return to Karnataka amidst coronavirus lockdown.

Of these, 121 of these expats are pregnant women, 27 are senior citizens, 157 are in urgent medical need, 522 are unemployed, 377 are in the UAE on visit visa, 109 are in the UAE on expired residency visa, 30 are students and 566 others.

On Tuesday, May 5, the Government of India released a list of flight schedules for the repatriation of Indians who are stranded abroad. "...sadly we do not see any flights going from UAE to Karnataka," the KNRI said in a letter to Union Minister of Chemicals and Fertilizers D V Sadananda Gowda, who is also a Kannadiga.

"We, Dubai Anivasi Kannadigaru and KNRI have collected the information of those who are in dire condition and would like to travel immediately. We would like to bring to your attention that in this list there are pregnant women and senior citizens who are in critical conditions and are waiting to travel," the KNRI wrote, urging the Union Minister to start at least one flight to Mangaluru as the majority are from this coastal city and not from Bengaluru.

Additionally, in order to help these struggling Kannadigas, the KNRI has notified the Government of India and Government of Karnataka several times through letters and conference calls, along with the Kannadiga's helpline, UAE.

With the help of likeminded businessmen and professionals, the KNRI Forum and Dubai Anivasi Kannadigaru have opened a helpline called "Kannadigas Helpline" through which they have received around 2,500 requests for food, medical, legal and other assistance.
