Bengaluru, Jan 20: Unidentified thieves decamped with 19 kg of gold biscuits of a passenger on board the Kurla Express, heading towards Bengaluru.

Mumbai-based businessman Rijoy, who works with a private gold company, was on his way to the city carrying gold biscuits in a suitcase. Around midnight when he was asleep with the bag next to him, his bag was stolen, he told the police.

The victim claims that theft took place near Hindupur station, but admitted that he realised his bag was missing only later.

As soon as he got down on Friday in Bengaluru, he lodged a complaint with the Cantonment Railway Police.

City police officials have gotten in touch with their counterparts in Mumbai and Hindupur in an effort to identify the thieves. A case of robbery has been registered with the Cantonment Railway Police, but will be transferred to Hindupur police station, said officials.

New Delhi, Jun 9: Elections to seven seats of the Karnataka Legislative Council will be held on June 29, the poll panel announced on Tuesday.

The seven seats are falling vacant on June 30, according to an Election Commission statement.

Members of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly will vote on June 29 to elect the seven new MLCs.

The Commission has directed the Karnataka chief secretary to depute a senior officer to ensure that the  instructions regarding COVID-19 containment measures are complied with during the elections.

The counting of votes will be held on the evening of June 29 after completion of polls, as per practice.

The notification for the elections will be issued on June 11, the statement said.

MLCs are usually elected by four types of electors -- MLAs, Graduates, Teachers and members of local authorities.

On Monday, the Commission had deferred elections to four seats of the Karnataka Legislative Council -- two each from Teachers and Graduate constituencies -- falling vacant on June 30 due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.

"If MLAs are electors, the size of the electorate is small and the assembly building is the only polling station. When the electorate is teachers or graduates, the number of those who can vote is higher.

Due to the virus, Commission only allowed polls to seats where MLAs are the electors to prevent large gatherings," explained a senior EC functionary.
