Nothings to get shock. These people are expert in cooking up of stories and forcefully convert all lies as true. Ms. Shobha unfortunately was Minister and now MP that too in District like Udupi. We never expect any kind of apology from her because she has long back lost that credibility of pleading guilty from people. \It's suits her and her followers\". Enjoy."

But, why importance to RSS activists over other Indians? Hundreds of people murdered in Karnataka in last four years for various reasons like family dispute, property row etc. But, why she is ignoring those deaths? Just because they don’t fetch her political mileage?

Hubli, Mar 9: A Hubli court on Monday rejected the bail application of three Kashmiri students, who were booked for sedition, after their video allegedly raising pro-Pakistan slogans went viral.

The plea was filed under Section 439 of CrPC.

This comes after the Hubli Bar Association earlier withdrew its resolution against representing the three Kashmiri students and said that advocates who wish to appear for them can approach Dharwad Principal District Court to file bail plea.

The three students are Basit Ashik Sophi (19), Talib Majid (19) and Amir Mohiuddin (23). They were booked under sedition charges for raising pro-Pakistan slogan in a video shared on social media.

They were earlier transferred to Belgaum Hindalga jail from Hubli sub-jail and the case, registered in Gokul Road police station, was also transferred to the rural police station because the video was recorded in the college hostel room, which is in its jurisdiction.
