Bengaluru, Sept 25: Karnataka Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy has reiterated that those who murdered journalist-activist Gauri Lankesh and scholar M M Kalburgi will be arrested shortly.

Replying to queries of media persons in Tumakuru, he said that the SIT chief had spoken to him on Friday and the investigation was going in the right direction.

Meanwhile, Maharashtra’s Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam condemned the killing of Gauri Lankesh and said that such acts sound the death knell for independent thinking.

Ahead of a talk at Rotary Club here, he told reporters that the trend of murders of independent thinkers such as Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare and Gauri Lankesh raises a serious threat of scuttling free thought in India’s democratic set-up.

He spoke against media trial and said constant pressure by the media on investigating agencies leads to the police erring in probes or even arresting innocent persons and slapping cases against them. “I have seen it happen several times,” Mr. Nikam said.

Kalaburagi, Mar 7: Congress and JDS MLAs are eagerly waiting to join BJP, said former minister and chairman of Nijasharana Ambigara Choudaiah Abhivradhi Nigama, Baburao Chinchansur, here on Friday.

Speaking at a press conference here, Baburao said if the BJP top brass gives a green signal to include MLAs of other parties, both Congress and JDS would be almost empty. Many leaders, including D K Shivakumar and G Parameshwara, won’t support Siddaramaiah and the former CM will have to find his own way in the coming days, he predicted. He said Congress will not be coming to power in Karnataka for the next 20 years, he said.

Chinchansur thanked Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa for providing Rs 50 crore for Nijasharana Ambigara Choudaiah Abhivrudhi Nigama in the budget. He also said that a delegation will be taken to New Delhi under the leadership of the CM, after the budget session, to pressure the Union government to include Koli community in ST category.
