Chikkamagaluru, Jan 11: K Annamalai, the superintendent of police of Chikkamagaluru has warned the saffron groups without naming them against trying to mislead people and pressurize police in connection with the death of Dhanyashree, a 20-year-old student of Mudigere’s DSBG college.

Dhanyashree, who belongs to Hindu community, had committed suicide on Saturday after group of Hindutva chauvinists barged into her house and created ruckus accusing her of flirting with Muslim boys. In her death note the Hindu girl had named five Hindutva activists. Among them BJP Yuva Morcha activist Anil has already been arrested.

Speaking to media persons here on Wednesday, SP said that some persons (activists of saffron groups) have been pressurizing Dhanyashree's father Yadav Suvarna to furnish wrong information. Those miscreants have been identified and cases will be booked against them, he said.

He said that the details furnished by Yadav Suvarna in his fresh complaint and the facts in Dhanyashri's death note are contradictory.

He added that police have obtained proof of the attempt to mislead the investigation. "Cases will be booked against the those who tried to mislead investigation and action will be initiated against them under IPC Section 182," he said.

Stating that the police had registered a complaint filed by Dhanyashree’s mother Saraswathi on January 7 and that the police had read out her complaint before her, Annamalai said the entire process has been videographed.

Flaying leaders of few (saffron) groups for issuing statements before the media, especially those who are accused in the case, Annamalai said that those accused in the incident should not issue media statements. "A few TV channels (that aired statements of the miscreants) too will be issued a notice in this regard," he said.

Referring to a Facebook post that said "the Police Sub Inspector (investigating the case) is working towards getting CM's medal and insulting his (PSI) religion," the SP said that a case has been booked against the person who wrote this post. Cases under IPC 353, 353A will be booked against the leader, he said and added that an additional section IPC 153A (disrupting harmony) will be added to the existing section IPC 306 (abetment to suicide).

To another query on those who claimed to be members of Bajrang Dal and issued warnings to female students on WhatsApp, the SP said that four persons have been identified and all of them are from Mudigiere and cases will be booked against them as well.

The SP also said that the identity of the person who had a chat with Dhanyashree and who abused her and her mother has been ascertained and a special team has been formed to nab them. Teams have been sent to Belagavi and Kalburgi too and the accused will be nabbed soon, the SP added.

New Delhi, May 9: The Finance Ministry on Friday announced relief to those who have been facing difficulty with their residency status in India under section 6 of the Income-tax Act due to lockdown and suspension of international flights owing to COIVD-19 outbreak, as they have had to prolong their stay in India.

According to a Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) release, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman today allowed discounting of prolonged stay period in India for the purpose of determining residency status after considering various representations received from people who had to prolong their stay in India due to lockdown and suspension of international flights.

They expressed concern that they will be required to file tax returns as Indian residents and not as NRIs after 120 days of stay.

The Finance Ministry stated that the lockdown continues during the financial year 2020-21 and it is not yet clear when international flight operations would resume, a circular excluding the period of stay of these individuals up to the date of resumption of international flight operations shall be issued for determination of the residential status for the financial year 2020-21.

A circular also said that in order to avoid genuine hardship in such cases, the CBDT has decided that for the purposes of determining the residential status under section 6 of the Act during the previous year 2019-20 in respect of an individual who has come to India on a visit before March 22, 2020 and:

(a) has been unable to leave India on or before March 31, 2020, his period of stay in India from March 22, 2020 to March 31, 2020 shall not be taken into account; or

(b) has been quarantined in India on account of novel coronavirus (Covid-19) on or after March 1, 2020 and has departed on an evacuation flight on or before March 31, 2020 or has been unable to leave India on or before March 31, 2020, his period of stay from the beginning of his quarantine to his date of departure or March 31, 2020, as the case may be, shall not be taken into account; or

(c) has departed on an evacuation flight on or before March 31, 2020, his period of stay in India from March 22, 2020 to his date of departure shall not be taken into account."

The release said there are number of individuals who had come on a visit to India during the previous year 2019-20 for a particular duration and intended to leave India before the end of the previous year for maintaining their status as non-resident or not ordinary resident in India.

"However, due to declaration of the lockdown and suspension of international flights owing to outbreak of COVID-19, they are required to prolong their stay in India. The status of an individual whether he is resident in India or a non-resident or not ordinarily resident, is dependent, inter-alia, on the period for which the person is in India during a year," it said.

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Former prime minister H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday termed as 'disturbing' the violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in Galwan Valley and said the government should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue.

He sought to know as to how Indian soldiers lost their lives during a de-escalation process and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh should come out with a clearer picture.

"Reports coming from #GalwanValley are disturbing. Why did our soldiers lose their lives during a de-escalation process? In national interest, the PM and RM should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue with the Chinese. #LADAKHSTANDOFF," Gowda tweeted. An Indian Army officer and two soldiers were killed during the confrontation with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on Monday night, the first such incident in the last 45 years that reflected massive escalation in the five- week border row.

The Army said India lost an officer and two soldiers during the violent face-off, while there were casualties on the Chinese side as well.
