Mangalore, May 20: The charges of sedition and waging war against the state slapped on tribal boy Vittala Malekudiya, the Mangalore University student who has been arrested by ANF, are absurd, said Prakash Karat, General Secretary, CPI(M).

Speaking to mediapersons after meeting Mr. Vittala and his father Linganna Malekudiya at the Mangalore jail, the veteran Left leader said that charging cases of sedition and waging a war against the state against the father-son duo is ridiculous.

“The issue is in court and if necessary, we will challenge it in the Supreme Court too”, he said.

In the backdrop of the district court allowing Mr. Vittala to write his exams, Mr. Karat said that the tribal student's morale is high and he is looking forward to facing his exams.

Responding to a query about his party's stand on the Presidential candidate, Mr. Karat said that they are waiting for the ruling party to propose its candidate.

Bengaluru, May 15: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday 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.

"Our motto is 'First Farmers'. The new amendment in the APMC Act will provide an opportunity for farmers to sell their produce directly to any purchase outside APMC or in other APMCs. This will help the farmers in getting remunerative price for their produce," CM Yediyurappa tweeted.

"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 added.

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.

January 19,2020

Mysuru, Jan 19: Karnataka Rural Development and Panchyat Raj Minister K S Eshwarappa on Sunday claimed that Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Party of India have been indulging in anti-national activities.

Talking to media persons here, he said the government is mulling to ban and take action against PFI and its political arm SDPI.

It was recommended even during the previous government, but it was not taken seriously, he added.

He said that the BJP will ensure that all the MLAs who were instrumental in the party coming to power (the then-disqualified MLAs who joined BJP from Congress and JDS recently and won the bypoll subsequently) will not be let down and be given suitable posts in the government.
