Benagluru, May 19: Congress leader DK Shivakumar on Saturday said that neither his party nor Janata Dal (Secular) would allow a voice vote when Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa moves a trust motion.

“We’re not bacchas here. We’ve seen the Assembly for 30 years. There law is clear. We want division of votes. We will not allow a voice vote,” Shivakumar told reporters.

Two Congress MLAs - Anand Singh and Pratapgouda Patil - did not show up for the oath-taking ceremony on Saturday. “I’m confident they will come. When they come, I’m sure they’ll vote for us,” Shivakumar said.

The Congress leader also demanded a probe by the I-T department on the alleged offer made by Yeddyurappa’s son BY Vijayendra to the wife of a Congress legislator. The Congress released an audio clip in which Vijayendra is purportedly heard offering Rs 30 crore as bribe.

Guv didnt invite cong-jds to prove majority before oath taking.  Cong staged dharna. No use of that. Similar to that your experiences will be just numbers in front of BJP. For that Feku and his Indian 'Thanos' (Shah) will do some arrangements

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government. 

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited. 

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

Bengaluru, Mar 2: Killing an Indian porcupine and inviting his TikTok followers to view it proved costly for a 25-year-old man from Kalaburagi. Forest department officials tracked him down and arrested him on Sunday morning.

Manjunath Biryalhissa, a resident of Jewargi taluk, was famous for his various TikTok videos and for lifting heavy stones in his village and neighbouring areas.

According to forest officials, on Friday, Manjunath and his friends caught a porcupine in Sindagi range, Vijayapura and stoned it to death. Later, they fried and cooked it. Manjunath then made an 18-second video, where he spoke about the porcupine hunt and slaughter, besides inviting his followers to like the video and join him in the feast.

The video was on TikTok and Facebook. Wildlife activists who found the video alerted forest department officials.

“Porcupine comes under schedule four of the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972. Keeping this video as evidence we were able to trace him through his Facebook account, where he had shared details of his hometown,” said forest officials.
