Mangaluru, Jul 26: Frankly responding to media persons query on reports of his son creating ruckus in public, Congress leader and minister B Ramanath Rai said that no one was above the law.

rai copy“Unlike other politicians I don't defend my son if he commits any mistake or crime,” Mr Rai said adding that the law of the land should apply to his son if he has committed a mistake.

He also clarified that he is not responsible for his son's mistake as it is difficult to control grown up children.

Cited Union minister DV Sadananda Gowda's son Karthik's sex with model case, Mr Rai said: “Some people pressured me to hold a protest, but I did not since I know it's difficult to keep a tab on what your children are doing after they cross a certain age."

He said once a person approached him claiming he had a recommendation letter from his (Rai's son) for a transfer. "I sent him away, saying I would transfer him to a place where there is no water,'' he added.

On Sunday, Mr Rai's son Deepu Rai and two of his friends -- Tejas and Ganesh -- were partying in their car parked on a private road leading to the house of former Madikeri gram panchayat president Mandamada Tejappa. Disturbed by the loud music and shouting, Tejappa and neighbours asked the trio to leave the place.

Taking offence, the trio entered into an argument with the public, asking them who they were to question them. Later, angry villagers reportedly thrashed the trio. At Srimangala police station, police made both groups strike a compromise and settled the case by taking written undertakings from both.

Bengaluru, May 19: Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa-led Karnataka government has recommended the withdrawal of 46 cases against leaders belonging to Sangh Parivar who had apparently involved in violence during the birth anniversary celebration of Tipu Sultan in the state. 

These cases – ranging from very serious forms of assaults on Muslims to unlawful assembly – were registered across Karnataka between 2014 and 2018.

Among the cases recommended to be withdrawn include those registered against senior state BJP leader Sanjay Patil, VHP leader Swaroop Kalkundri, and several district level Bajrang Dal activists. 

The government recommended withdrawal of these cases under Section 321 of the Code of Criminal Procedure on March 5. 

The recommendations, however, have been opposed by three crucial law enforcement departments – Director General and Inspector General of Police (DG & IGP), Director-Department of prosecution and Government litigation and Law department. 

While the DG & IGP has opined that these cases “cannot be withdrawn”, both the department of prosecution and law have observed that these are “not a fit case to withdraw”.

New Delhi, Jul 27: A month after banning 59 Chinese applications, the government of Indian has now reportedly banned 47 more apps of Chinese origin in the country. According to sources, the 47 banned Chinese apps were operating as clones of the earlier banned apps. 

The list of the 47 Chinese applications banned by the Indian government will be released soon.

India has also prepared a list of over 250 Chinese apps, including apps linked to Alibaba, that it will examine for any user privacy or national security violations, government sources said. The list also includes Tencent-backed gaming app PUBG.

Some top gaming Chinese applications are also expected to be banned in the new list that is being drawn up, sources said. The Chinese applications, that are being reviewed, have allegedly been sharing data with the Chinese agencies.

Today's decision follows after a high-profile ban of 59 Chinese apps including TikTok, as border tensions continued in Ladakh after a violent, fatal face-off between the Indian and Chinese armies. The government said these apps were engaged in activities that were prejudicial to the sovereignty, integrity and defence of India.

A government press release announcing the ban stated: "The Ministry of Information Technology, invoking it's power under section 69A of the Information Technology Act read with the relevant provisions of the Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking of Access of Information by Public) Rules 2009 and in view of the emergent nature of threats has decided to block 59 apps since in view of information available they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order".

A day later, Google said it has removed all the banned applications from the Play Store. Following the ban, TikTok refuted the claims that suggest it will pursue legal action against the Indian government for banning the app in India.

Reacting to the 59 apps banned by India, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said the country is "strongly concerned regarding the decision of the Indian government".

“China is strongly concerned, verifying the situation,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

"We want to stress that the Chinese government always asks Chinese businesses to abide by international and local laws-regulations. The Indian government has a responsibility to uphold the legal rights of international investors including Chinese ones," Zhao Lijian said.
