Mangalore, June 21: Terming the “oath politics”, as 'disgraceful', 'disagreeable' and an 'evil practice', Pejawar Mutt pontiff Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji urged Chief Minster BS Yeddyurappa and former Chief Minister HD Kumarasamy to withdraw from their scheduled “test of truth” before the deity at Dharmasthala.




Addressing media persons after performing his Tulabhara in the city, the seer said that such an adverse step by senior political leaders of the state is a matter of concern.



"This move to self-justify the respective stands taken by them before Lord Manjunatha of Dharmasthala will result in curse and counter-curse for them" the Swamiji warned.



He also said that neither Yeddyurappa, nor Kumaraswamy can gain justice by spelling out their swearing lines before the deity, and would instead invite wrath from all sides.



If the CM and JD(S) state president have to continue with their argument and counter argument, they can approach a court to settle disputes, rather than approaching the diety, he said.



Yeddyurappa has fixed June 27 morning, around 10 a.m., to take oath before the idol of Manjunatha at Dharmasthala that he has not made any attempt to buy Kumaraswamy's silence. Kumaraswamy, said in response that he would be there on June 26 evening itself to take oath in the name of the diety and stick to his stand that Yeddyurappa tried to buy his silence through his emissary.

Bidar, Mar 4: The Principal District and Sessions Court in Bidar, on Tuesday, granted conditional bail to five functionaries of Shaheen School management — Abdul Qadeer, Allauddin Pasha, Mehtab Sait, Bilal Inamdar and Abdul Khaleq — who moved anticipatory bail in a sedition case slapped against their school recently.

Conditions

Senior advocate B.T. Venkatesh from Bengaluru argued for the petitioners. Managoli Premavati Mallikarjuna granted bail on certain conditions, including execution of personal bond of ₹2 lakh each.

The sedition case was filed against the Shaheen School management for its children staging a play as part of their annual day celebrations on January 21, in which a character had allegedly delivered a dialogue against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

While Nazbunnisa, the mother of the child who had allegedly delivered the dialogue in the play, and Fareeda Begum, the headmistress of the school, were arrested, they were subsequently released on bail last month.

Mangaluru, May 13: Karnataka revised its standard operating procedure (SOP) for international passengers to allow pregnant women, children and senior citizens to entre home quarantine if they test negative for covid-19. 

The development comes after former minister and Mangaluru MLA U T Khader urged the government to follow the Kerala model in handling the repatriates and take extra care of pregnant women and senior citizens at Mangaluru and Bengaluru Airports.

Passengers will be initially dived into two categories. Category A includes passengers symptomatic on arrival while Category B passengers are those asymptomatic on arrival. 

While category A passengers will be directly shifted to covid-19 hospital, category B passengers will be sent to 14-day institutional quarantine.

If there are pregnant women, children below 10 years of age and senior citizens in category B, they will remain in institutional quarantine until they obtain a negative report (after throat swab testing for covid-19). It may take one or two days to get the throat swab testing report.
