Bengaluru, Mar 16: Karnataka BJP chief and former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa has moved the High Court seeking a direction to restrain the media and Congress leaders from making statements against him in connection with the criminal cases already closed and those pending against him.

Justice G Narendar, before whom the petition came up for hearing on Thursday, ordered issuance of notices to the Press Council of India and the body of private television news broadcasters while refusing to pass any interim order at this stage.

Meanwhile, the court orally observed that the questions raised in the petition are a larger issue and hence directed the PCI and the body of private news broadcasters to be made as respondents in the petition.

Yeddyurappa has moved the High Court after a Bengaluru sessions court last month declined to issue an ex parte temporary injunction against 22 print and electronic media houses and seven Congress leaders on his suit, which is pending consideration before the civil court.

It has been pointed out in Yeddyurappa’s petition that the Congress leaders are issuing “defamatory” statements against him on the cases related to alleged corruption in which he has been acquitted of all the charges or the cases have been quashed by courts.

Also, it has been claimed in the petition that the Congress leaders are making remarks against him based on certain other cases, which are sub judice, and such remarks amount to interference in the process of administration of justice.

Siddaramaiah, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president G. Parameshwara, KPCC working president Dinesh Gundu Rao, Water Resources Minister M.B. Patil, MLCs C.M. Ibrahim and V.S. Ugrappa, and Congress spokesperson Brijesh Kalappa have been made respondents in the petition along with 22 media houses.

Shivamogga, Feb 4: Students of a government primary school which is built especially for the children of manual scavengers, have been facing tough times during classes as the filthy drainage passing through the school premises excrete human excreta and sludge.

The drainage passes through GSPL Scavenger's Colony School in Shivamogga city, located behind the state road transport corporation's bus stand (KSRTC).

According to the locals here, students studying in this school often fall sick due to the waste flowing from the drainage.

Penchelayya, the father of a child who studies in the same school said, "Human excreta floats in the drainage as it is connected to two toilets. The school stinks and students often fall sick due to the drainage."

The students studying here are unable to bear the foul smell emanating from the drainage which flows at the school's premises.

He added that waste from private bus stands is dumped in this drainage which ultimately flows here creating an extremely unhygienic environment for the people living here and students studying in this school.

He further claimed that the government is not ready to listen to their grievances.
