Kannada activist and Vatal Paksha leader Vatal Nagaraj has announced that Kannada organisations, along with Dalit and farmers’ organisations with a regional perspective, would form Karnataka Praja Samyukta Ranga and field candidates in the Assembly elections.
He said he would hold discussions shortly with farmers’ and Dalit organisations who have concern and commitment for the development of Kannada language and Karnataka, on contesting on a single election manifesto highlighting the State’s issues.
After launching a website of the paksha on Saturday, Mr. Nagaraj said Karnataka and Kannadigas do not get justice from the national political parties.
Mr. Nagaraj, who was an MLA for five terms, said there was poor representation in the Legislative Assembly, the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha of people who could raise their voice for the cause of Kannada.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
