Honnavar, Dec 18: The “attack” on a schoolgirl, which led to communal tension in the town last week in Honnavar taluk of Uttara Kannada district, has taken a new twist with the girl confessing that no one had attacked her and, injuries on her hand were self-inflicted.

On December 14, Kavya Chandrashekar Naika, a class IX student and a resident of Magodu Kodlagadde village, had claimed that unidentified men attacked her while she was on her way to school and fled on a bike.

She had claimed that she was injured with a knife-like weapon and one of the attackers had a moustache and beard. The news about the incident went viral and triggered tension in Honnavar, which was returning to normalcy following violence in the aftermanth of the death of Paresh Mesta, a teenager belonging to Hindu community.

Addressing a press meet here on Sunday, Superintendent of Police Vinay V Patil said that the girl, who was under severe mental stress, had inflicted injuries and started narrating a false story concocted by a shopkeeper (suspected to be a saffron activist), who provided her a bandage.

"Kavya walks 8 km from her home for school. A boy from Magodu village, identified as Ganesha Eshwara Naik, used to stop her on the way, insisting that she travel by his car or bike. Kavya was being harassed this way for six months. On December 8, the boy had threatened the girl that she would come with him only if something bad happened to her. Kavya brought the matter to the notice of her parents. Her parents, in turn, alerted gram panchayat members and a local leader, who had promised to warn Ganesha," the SP said.

The girl did not go to school for four days in view of the communal violence. She had called her friend over phone on the night of December 13 and came to know that there were tests in the school. She was worried since she had not studied. She was also under stress in view of the threat by Ganesha.

"She was worried that the honour of her family would be at stake if she is raped by Ganesha and hence decided to end her life in case of such an event. While on the way to school on December 14, she injured herself with the thorns of a lemon plant. But, soon she realised she was wrong and decided to go to school."

Shopkeeper spreads lie

After coming to Magodu, she asked her friend to bring a bandage cloth. Her friend brought her a small plaster, which was not covering her injuries. Meanwhile, a shopkeeper called Kavya to his shop.

Without seeking any information from the girl, he claimed that two persons whom he saw going towards Magodu last night, had caused the injuries. Villagers who gathered there came to the conclusion that people of Muslim community were responsible for the incident, the SP said.

"The truth came to light after Kavya was questioned in the presence of the counsellor of Mahila Santwana Kendra. The girl's statement has been recorded in the court also," the SP explained. He added that Ganesha had been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act and police teams were out to arrest him. Interestingly, Ganesha belongs to a BJP backed family.

This story is in fact concocted by Siddaramullah Khan with the help of some Khan-grace elements in the khakhi department. The fact is that PFI goons tried to kidnap her. But Khan-grace is trying its best to twist the truth. So many such stories may emerge ahead of polls. But, Kannadigas will teach them a lesson. In Uttara Kannada our nationalist leader Anant Kumar Hegde alone is enough to finish all anti-national terrorists

The Department of Preuniversity Education, Karnataka has declared the board exams or pre university I exam results. To get results online, the students need to log on to result.bspucpa.com and have to provide their registration number and date of birth. 
Apart from the online portal, the students will get the results via mail or SMS.

“The results of the first year Pre-University Examinations will be announced on May 5. The results will be sent directly to students. Hence, colleges will not be displaying the results,” said S Suresh Kumar, Primary and Secondary Education Minister. 

The pre-university course of PUC is a two-year course including class 11 and class 12 called PUC I and PUC II. It is based on PUC score that candidates can get admission to varsities.

Earlier, the Karnataka PUC 1 result was to be announced on March 27 which was postponed and hence the revised dates are announced now.

The board exam results have been put on halt due to the nation-wide lockdown imposed after the coronavirus pandemic gripped India. As of May 3, the number of people infected by the coronavirus in India had crossed over 40,000.

The HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank had in a meeting asked state and central boards to resume their evaluation process and declare the results to curb any further delay in the academic cycle. The academic cycle has been delayed by over a month due to the coronavirus. Now, the colleges will start by September instead of July.

New Delhi, Feb 24: A book on the history of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will become a part of a course in the Islamic University of Indonesia, as the party’s two consecutive victories in India’s general elections has evoked interest among academicians, a faculty member said.

The book, titled Bhartiya Janata Party — Past, Present & Future, Story of World’s Largest Political Party and written by Shantanu Gupta, will become a part of the syllabus for undergraduate students of South Asian studies in the Department of International Relations.

Hadza Min Fadhli, a faculty member at the university, said there was a rising interest in the BJP’s rise among academicians in Indonesia, especially after the party won two general elections in India.

He said the book would be part of the syllabus for undergraduate courses in South Asian studies in the Department of International Relations.

Mr. Hadza said he got to know about the book during a recent visit to India as part of the Kautilya Fellowship programme, organised by the India Foundation. “We in Indonesia intend to further strengthen our relations with India. Therefore, it is important to understand its ruling party. We expect the BJP would also intend to do the same,” Mr. Hadza said.

When asked about the book being selected to be a part of a course in an Indonesian university, Mr. Gupta said global recognition of his work is immensely satisfying.

This book chronicles the history of the BJP which, Mr. Gupta said, described the saffron party as the latest political manifestation of the various nationalist movements that the country has seen.

Mr. Gupta has authored five other books, including a biography of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and a book on football in India.

Mumbai, Mar 8: A day after the Enforcement Directorate registered a money laundering case against Yes Bank founder Rana Kapoor and raided his premises, he was taken to the agency's office in Mumbai on Saturday for further questioning.

Kapoor, who was grilled by central agency's officials on Friday night at his Samudra Mahal residence in Mumbai, was shifted to the ED office in the metropolis around 12.30 pm.

ED officials said Kapoor was questioned throughout the night, with some rest time.

A senior ED official connected with the probe told IANS: "Kapoor will be questioned about Yes Bank loans to Dewan Housing Finance Limited (DHFL)."

The official said that during searches a lot of incriminating documents were found and the agency wanted to grill him on his links with DHFL promoters and other companies.

Kapoor's alleged role in the disbursal of loan to a corporate entity and kickbacks reportedly received in his wife's bank account are also under probe.

The ED had filed the money laundering case against Kapoor and raided his residence, apart from issuing a look-out circular so that he does not flee the country.

The ED registered a money laundering case against Kapoor as a continuation of its probe against the DHFL wherein it was allegedly found that Rs 12,500 crore was diverted to 80 shell companies using one lakh fake borrowers. The transactions with these shell companies date back to 2015.

An ED official in New Delhi told IANS that the DHFL probe revealed that funds diverted by the DHFL originated from Yes Bank.

He said that the searches at Kapoor's residence on Friday night were meant to find out any irregularity in grant of loans to the DHFL by the Yes Bank.

The ED has accused Kapil and Dheeraj Wadhawan of DHFL of purchasing shares in five firms -- Faith Realtors, Marvel Township, Abe Realty, Poseidon Realty, and Random Realtors -- after which they were amalgamated with Sunblink.

The outstanding loans of these five firms, totalling around Rs 2,186 crore till July 2019, were allegedly appropriated onto the books of Sunblink to cover up the diversion of loans acquired from DHFL.

The ED's action comes after the RBI superseded Yes Bank Board for 30 days and appointed an administrator, putting a cap of Rs 50,000 on withdrawals by account holders for a month.

The RBI said that the bank's board was superseded "owing to serious deterioration in the financial position of the bank".

Former SBI CFO Prashant Kumar was appointed as administrator of Yes Bank, which has over 1,000 branches and 1,800-plus ATMs across the country.

On Thursday, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that the bank was on watch since 2017 and developments relating to it were monitored on a day-to-day basis.
