Udupi, Jan 31: “I am proud of my daughter. Politicians may hate her but people love and respect her…,” says Radhakrishna Shenoy, father of Anupama Shenoy, a senior police officer who was transferred allegedly because of the high-handedness of Minister of State for Labour P.T. Parameshwar Naik.

anupama63-year-old Radhakrishna, who runs a canteen at Uchila village in Udupi district, is confident that her daughter is strong enough to handle tough situations in life.

“I have brought up my children under tremendous hardship. Hence they know how to survive when situations get worse,” he says.

Among his three children, the first son Aravind is an electronics engineer in Malaysia and the other Achutha is a field engineer. After BSc, Anupama completed Masters in Social Work before clearing the KAS examination.

“Anupama was a bright student and always wanted to be an officer. She has reached her position by the dint of her hard work,” Radhakrishna said.

“As a government servant and police officer Anupama has to go wherever she was transferred to by the Police Department. But it is also sad that those who do their work sincerely should be treated in this manner,” he laments.

Radhakrishna has been running the canteen in Uchila for the last 42 years. Though his children want him to stop running the canteen, he said: "I want to be financially independent and will run it till I die." Radhakrishna’s mother is a home maker and she used to roll out beedis until recently.

Parameshwara Naik has reportedly justified transferring Deputy Superintendent of Police of Kudligi sub-division in Ballari district Anupama Shenai for placing his call on hold.

Daughter of a poor man only can show guts to put a minister in his place by putting his call on hold. Kudos Kavita for having made your parents proud and also many citizens like me proud of your courage. Wish there are more (if not all) police officers and civil servants like you. Salute.

Bengaluru, May 20: Karnataka Congress leaders held a protest against the state government against amending of APMC Act, at the premises of Vidhan Soudha here.

Few days ago, Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa had said that the new amendment in the Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee (APMC) Act will substantially aid the farmers in getting remunerative price for their produce.

"Amendment will not dilute the powers of the work of the APMCs. All these marketing activities will be monitored by the Directorate of State APMC. This new amendment Act will benefit farmers in improving their income & suffering from losses due to market fluctuations," the Karnataka CM tweeted.

Yediyurappa further said that the amendment will indirectly help farmers in doubling their income by 2022.

"This amendment will indirectly help farmers in doubling their income by 2022. I want to clarify that we have not removed the APMC Act, we are only amending 2 sections of the APMC Act which enable farmers to sell their produce at the markets where they intend to," he tweeted.
