Bengaluru, Jan 1: With the mystery shrouds over the whereabouts of the Congress dissident MLA, Ramesh Jarakhiholi continues, former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP State President B S Yeddyurappa denied that the sacked minister had met BJP’s national President Amit Shah at New Delhi.

Addressing a press conference here on Tuesday, B S Yeddyurppa, who is nursing ambition to get reinstated as the Chief Minister, expressed ignorance about Jarakhiholi meeting Amit Shah at New Delhi.

“There is no any possibilities of Amit Shah meeting with the disgruntled Congress MLA” he said.

Maintaining that he is busy with strengthening the rank and file of the party in preparation to the coming Lok Sabha elections, he said that “We have no plans to bring down the JD(S)-Congress Coalition government in Karnataka”.

Ramesh Jarakhiholi, ever since dropped from the Cabinet, has remained incommunicado to the party leaders and reportedly camping at New Delhi and holding negotiations to support the BJP.

However, former Chief Minister, and the Coordination Committee Chairman, Siddaramaiah reiterated his charge that BJP leaders are in constant touch with the Congress MLAs and making all-out efforts to come back to power.

The Congress MLA from Afzalpur M Y Patil accused that BJP leaders have offered him to join the Saffron party and help to form the BJP government in the State.

Stating that he will remain in Congress and thwart any efforts of the BJP, he said that “JD(S)-Congress Coalition government will complete its full term in Karnataka”.

No earthquake in Bengaluru; source of loud 'boom' yet unknown

Bengaluru, May 20: A mysterious "boom" heard in large parts of Bengaluru this afternoon left residents of the city and social media users puzzled. While the source of the sound is being investigated, the Indian Air Force (IAF) indicated that it could be the result of "routine test flights that necessitate going supersonic a times".

The sound was heard from as far as the Bengaluru airport in Devanahalli to the IT hub of Electronic City 54 km away. It was also heard in Kalyan Nagar in east Bengaluru, central Bengaluru's MG Road and areas such as Marathahalli, Whitefield, Sarjapur and Hebbagodi.

IAF said no aircraft of training command was flying in the area. "However, ASTE (Aircraft and Systems Testing Establishment) and HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Limited) could have been undertaking their routine test flying, which necessitates going supersonic at times. These are done well beyond the city limits in specified sectors. However, considering the atmospheric conditions and reduced noise levels in the city during these times, the aircraft sound may become clearly audible even if it happened way out from the city," said the air force statement.

Many people had speculated that the sound could have been caused by a fighter jet such as a Mirage 2000.

"We have also asked the Air Force Control Room to check if it was a jet or supersonic sound. Bengaluru police are awaiting confirmation from the Air Force," Bengaluru police commissioner Bhaskar Rao said in a statement.

It was not an earthquake, Karnataka's state disaster monitoring centre had tweeted earlier.

"Earthquake activity will not be restricted to one area and will be widespread. We have checked our sensors and there is no earthquake activity recorded today," the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre said, quoting its director Srinivas Reddy.

"The activity reported in Bengaluru is not due to an earthquake. The seismometers did not capture any ground vibration as generally happens during a mild Tremor. The activity is purely a loud unknown noise," the agency tweeted.

#Bangalore and #BangaloreBoom was among the top trends on Twitter this afternoon.

"We are trying to ascertain the source of the noise," a senior police officer said. "In Whitefield area, we have searched on the ground and so far, there is no damage to any property," he added. There were no calls to the police control room reporting any damage.
