Udupi, May 31: Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has slammed the chief minister H D Kumaraswamy led-coalition government for what she felt the lack of importance given to the relief measures in the areas affected by heavy rain which had resulted in six deaths in Udupi and Dakshina Kannada districts.

Speaking to presspersons here, the BJP leader said that such heavy rain had not been seen in both these districts, especially Dakshina Kannada, for a long time. But for the last fortnight, there has been no Ministry in the State, there was only a Chief Minister and a Deputy Chief Minister, she said.

Since the Congress and Janata Dal(S) politicians were busy lobbying for loaves and fishes of office, the bureaucrats had taken it easy. It was essential that Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy ordered the officers to give priority to providing relief and assistance in the rain-affected areas, she said.

To another query, Karandlaje said that it was imperative for Mr. Kumaraswamy to waive loans taken by farmers from nationalised banks and cooperative banks. This was because in the last four days, nearly 10 farmers had committed suicide in the State unable to bear the loan burden, she said.

Karwar, Aug 6: In a shocking incident, a 40-day-old girl child was murdered by her own parents in Sirsi town in Karnataka’s Uttara Kannada district.

The accused are Priyanka (21) and her husband Chandrashekhar Bhat (42), residents of Ramanakoppa in Sahasrahalli in Yellapur.

According to police, the couple did not want a girl child and hence threw it into a well. The couple was arrested by the police the very next day.

The incident came to light after the child’s maternal uncle, Abhishek Jagadeesh Singh Choudhari, a resident of Rajeev Nagar in Sirsi, lodge a complaint with Yellapur police station. 

He had claimed that his sister Priyanka’s baby had been kidnapped and subsequently killed. 

Priyanka had claimed that she woke up around 2.30am on August 2 to find that her baby, Tanushri, was not in her cradle. Her husband’s family subsequently started searching for the baby, which they found dead inside a well. 

Choudhari suspected that Tanushri had been kidnapped, and had been killed by her abductors to erase any evidence of their crime.

Uttara Kannada superintendent of police Shivaprakash Devaraju constituted a team to crack the crime, and the cops, who subjected the parents to an interrogation, found that they were the culprits.
