Udupi, Jun 7: Anupama Shenoy, the Deputy Superintendent of Police of Kudligi sub-division in Ballari district, whose sudden resignation attracted the attention of media and opposition parties, may change her decision if the state government transferred her to Mangaluru, according to her family.

anuAnupama is the eldest among the three children of Radhakrishna Shenoy and Nalini Shenoy, who hail from Ucchila near Bada village of Udupi district. The Shenoys have been running a small tea canteen at Ucchila for the last 40 years.

“If my daughter is transferred to Mangaluru, she may withdraw her resignation,” said Radhakrishna, who accuses both her seniors in the police department and the elected representatives of not supporting her.

Recalling how he took great pains to educate his daughter, Radhakrishna said: “Had I known that she would be tortured so much, I wouldn't have had to provide for her higher education.”

“I ran a canteen to fund her education... She is staying away from the family for the time being,” he said.

It could be recalled here that when a group of people staged protest against her last Saturday, the DySP rushed into her chamber, wrote out her resignation letter and handed it over to an inspector.

As per protocol, Anupama should have submitted her resignation to Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ballari Range through the Superintendent of Police, Ballari, but instead, handed it over to her junior officer, circle police inspector Nagappa Bankali.

BJP, JD(S) seize opportunity

Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal (Secular) have utilised the fresh development to target Chief Minister Siddramaiah-led Congress government in Karnataka.

Union Minister Ananth Kumar charged the CM with behaving irresponsibly in connection with the resignation of a s woman police officer.

“Does a higher police official have no relationship with the state government? What was the intelligence bureau doing if the chief minister had no information about the developments which led to Anupama's resignation? Siddaramaiah and Home Minister G?Parameshwara are showing a dictatorial and adamant attitude to hide their failures,” Ananthkumar told reporters here on Monday.

The police system is under pressure due to the cold war between Siddaramaiah and Parameshwara, he added.

Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Jagadish?Shettar said the Congress government was discouraging honest officials and was protecting the corrupt.

“We have information that harassment of Anupama Shenoy continued even after she was re-posted to Kudligi, after the incident of putting Minister P?T?Parameshwar Naik's call on hold, and public outcry over her transfer to Indi. Her resignation is an indication of what other officers are facing. The chief minister, home minister or DGP should talk to her on the real reason for her resignation. Otherwise, other officials will also be demoralised,” Shettar said.

JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy said Anupama shouldn't have resigned and sought transfer instead. He praised her for taking on the labour minister and cracking down on illegalities in Ballari. “Her resignation clearly shows there is no protection for officials under this government,” he said.

Kalaburgi, May 27: Karnataka's Kalaburgi district recorded a maximum temperature of 44 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, as per information provided by the India Meteorological Department (IMD).

In light of the increasing mercury levels, people here were seen consuming sugarcane juice and cold drinks to beat the heat. Animals and birds could also be seen searching for water for relief from the scorching sun.

Locals of the area requested the district administration to take necessary actions such as spraying water on roads, in order to bring down the temperatures.

"We are facing huge heat waves in this district from the past two days, and even the temperature is around 44 to 45 degrees on a daily basis. So, it is a very alarming situation in Kalaburgi. When we move around the city, we are unable to find water and fresh fruit juice, and even if fresh juice is available, we are afraid of getting infected by COVID-19," said one local.

"If we carry cold water, it gets warm within half an hour, and gets unfit for drinking, and it is tough for us. I request the district administration to look into this matter and do the needful such as spraying water on the roads, etc. for slightest relief," he added.

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 18: Bindhu Sampath, the mother of Nimisha alias Fathima who travelled from Kerala to Afghanistan to join the Islamic State (IS), has sought the Central government's help to bring her daughter back to India.

"I saw a video of my daughter in which she was requesting her return to India. She has realised that India is her country, not Afghanistan. She is scared that she'll be put in jail over there. Responding to my mail, the Afghanistan government has said that the procedure will take time," said Bindhu Sampath.

"I believe in Indian laws. Let her be questioned and realise what is good or bad. I am waiting for the Central government's confirmation on the matter," added Sampath.

Around four years back, a team of 21 members which consisted of couples and children went to Syria from Kerala to join ISIS and lead an Islamic life. After they left, police registered a case against them, which has been handled by the National Investigation Agency.
