Tainted official's land in mother-in-law's name

January 4, 2017

Bengaluru, Jan 4: More assets linked to the suspended chief project officer of the State Highway Development Project, S C Jayachandra, have been unearthed. Documents accessed by DH show that the officer has acquired assets in his mother-in-law's name. One of the major assets is a 15-acre, 10-gunta plot of land at Antarasanthe near Kabini in Mysuru district and four sites in Harohalli near Yelahanka in the city.

JayachandraThis apart, Jayachandra's wife Bharathi Jayachandra was inducted as one of the additional directors in Jivin Green Realty Pvt Ltd in 2014-15. Bharathi Jayachandra, along with one Pokar Ram and D M Chandresh, was appointed as additional directors at the board meeting held on September 17, 2015. During the financial year-end, March 31, 2016, the promoters and directors of this company Rama Sudarshan and Sudarshana Kavi Shivaraman, resigned. The profit and loss account for the year ending March 31, 2015, reveals the net loss for the year under review as Rs 10.25 lakh as against the profit of Rs 4.65 lakh in the previous year.

Two long-term loans, Rs 7.56 crore for 2014-15 and Rs 2.55 crore for 2013-14, have been mentioned in the balance sheet. They are mentioned as loan from directors. However, there are no details about the names of the directors and against what security the loans were given by the directors. The consolidated amount, around Rs 9.84 crore, has been used to purchase land. Sources said the probe is on to trace the source of the money which has been diverted to the company in the name of loans.

Sources said there are several assets in the name of Jayachandra's mother-in-law. The officials are, however, still verifying the source of income with which the officer's mother-in-law purchased lands in Antarasanthe near Kabini in H D Kote in Mysuru district. More than 15 acres of land was purchased in 2012 and the property also borders the land acquired for the Kabini reservoir rehabilitation package.

A source said that the officer was planning to construct a resort on the land. This apart, she bought four different sites ranging from 9 guntas to 11 guntas, in 2007. However, sources said that of these sites, the officer's mother-in-law sold two sites within a year.

Bengaluru, Jul 8: In a setback to the State government, the Karnataka High Court on Wednesday stayed the initial ban and the subsequent restrictions imposed on schools against conducting online classes from pre-primary to Class X.

Prima facie the ban and embargo imposed on online education violate Articles 21 and 21A of the Constitutionon the fundamental right to education, the Court said.

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice Nataraj Rangaswamy passed the interim order staying the operation of Government Orders issued on June 15 and June 27 respectively.

The Bench passed the interim order on the petitions filed by parents of children and several educational institutions questioning the legality of the ban and the restrictions imposed.

However, the Bench made it clear that this order should not be construed that the schools have right to make online education compulsory and can charge fee for offering online education. Also, the schools should not deprive students, who cannot opt for online education, the lost education when the schools reopen on regular basis.
