Mangalore, May 15: Condemning the series of scandals of BJP led Karnataka government, the members of the Communist Party India (Marxist) staged a protest in front of the Deputy Commissioner's office, here.

The protesters demanded resignation of Chief Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda as well as his Cabinet colleagues.

The Chief Minister should allow investigation into the mining illegality in view of the Supreme Court order for the CBI probe against the former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa, they said.

B. Madhava, CPI(M) Dakshina Kannada district unit Secretary, said that the BJP Government during its tenure had been involved in illegal and corrupt activities and many of its ministers, including the former Chief Minister, had been a key part of it.

He said the ministers in the BJP government who are facing one or the other charges should resign immediately and face a thorough inquiry.

“Despite facing several charges, former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa has not been ousted from the party, which reflects the lack of accountability of the BJP. Yeddyurappa along with ministers like R Ashok should be expelled from the party,” he said.

Calling the State government inactive, Madhava said as the Chief Minister has 20 Portfolios, the development work in the State has come to a standstill.

The situation has turned worse than what it appears as the concept of democracy has failed in the State. The State government has even failed to appoint Lokayukta and Upa Lokayukta, which in turn has helped the government to stay away from the inquiries, said the leader.

Bengaluru, May 5: The Karnataka excise department booked a case against a wine shop owner in this tech city for allegedly selling more liquor than permitted under the law to a buyer on the first day of shops reopening for business after 40-day lockdown on Monday, an official said on Tuesday.

"We have booked a case against licensed shop owner S. Venkatesh for reportedly selling Indian made liquor (IML) and beer to a buyer on Monday more than he is permitted under the Karnataka Excise Act section 36," Bengaluru South Excise Deputy Commissioner A. Giri told media persons.

The alleged sale came to light when the unidentified customer posted in the social media a receipt showing he bought liquor worth Rs 52,841 from Vanilla Spirit Zone in the city''s south-eastern suburb on Monday afternoon.

"Preliminary investigation revealed that 17.4 litres of IML was sold against the permissible limit of 2.3 litres and 35.1 litres of beer against the legal limit of 18.2 litres," Giri said.

Venkatesh, however, told Giri that the buyer paid for the liquor bought by him and seven of his colleagues at the same time from the shop as they entered together.

"We are investigating to ascertain if Venkatesh violated the license conditions by paying for liquor bought by his friends with him at the same time," Giri added.
