Bengaluru, Feb 20: With the issue of assault on youth by Congress MLA N A Haris’ son Mohammed Nalapad at Farzi Café in Bengaluru’s UB City taking a political turn, the names of several other VIPs who either involved in the brawl or became mute spectators have come to light.

According to reliable sources, the son of a former BJP Minister from north Karnataka, son of Bengaluru Central BJP MP P C Mohan, son of a State Cabinet Minister from Old Mysuru region; a city councillor, who is the son of another MLA from the city; children of two noted Kannada actors, of whom one even became a Minister were all present at the cafe when the incident happened on Saturday night.

Meanwhile, Mohammed Nalapad’s lawyer has alleged the complaint was “selectively registered” against a few people, including his client, while the sons of other bigwigs were let off. He claimed that P C Mohan also involved in the clash.

Mohan has admitted that his son was present in the café when the incident took place. However, he said that he wasn’t part of the assault.

“My son had no links to Nalapad or the boy who was attacked. Nalapad’s lawyer is trying to tarnish the reputation of many families by dragging the names of several people,” he said, while adding, there were several others at the cafe, but singling out his son was politically-motivated.

Chandragupta, DCP (Central), said they had seized the CCTV footage at Farzi Cafe that had showed the incident. “We are yet to go into the witnesses accounts to the incident. We will call them and record their statements in the case eventually,” he said.

Gadag, May 9: It is the month of April, and the season of mangoes is very much here. However, the mango farmers of Gadag are suffering huge losses amid the coronavirus lockdown due to the absence of transportation facilities along with several other issues that have been impacting their business adversely.

Speaking to media persons, Vishwanath Odugowdar, a mango farmer said, "Due to transportation problems we are not being able to export mangoes to different countries. We are trying to sell them in nearby markets."

"We are not in a situation to pack, transport and export the mangoes to different countries as we did earlier especially 
when it comes to Alphonso mangoes which is one of the most loved varieties. So, we are packing mangoes at our place. Somehow this year we have got very good quality of mangoes," he added.

Farmers here are incurring huge losses as mandis and markets across the country are shut while the transport of Alphonso mangoes has also come to a halt owing to the lockdown.

The small and medium scale farmers in places like Gadag, Dharwad, Bagalkote in north Karnataka have started packing the mangoes themselves in their farms in a bid to sell the fruit themselves.

Bengaluru, Feb 17: Leader of Opposition in Karnataka Assembly Siddaramaiah on Monday demanded that forest minister Anand Singh should either be expelled from the Cabinet or assigned a different portfolio.

This comes amid a number of cases, pending against Singh, including those under the Karnataka Forest Act.
