Mangalore, November 12: Former Union Minister and senior Congress leader B. Janardhan Poojary has demanded revoking of the bail granted to former chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa in the corruption cases, as he is "likely to destory evidences related to the charges slapped against him"

Addressing presspersons in Mangalore, Mr. Poojary on Friday said there was a conspiracy behind the transfer of Additional Director General of Police Jeevan Kumar V. Gaonkar from the post he held as the top officer in the Lokayukta.

This is enough proff that he would destroy evidence and hence advocate Sirajin Pasha should approach Supreme Court demanding withdrawal of bail to Mr. Yeddyurappa.

A case should be filed against the Chief Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda and BJP president K.S. Eshwrappa for meeting Yeddyurappa when he was in the judicial custody.

"The chief minister should reveal the reason behind the transfer of Lokayukta officials. If not, it is clear that the transfer had political motive," the veteran leader observed.

Mr. Gowda is being used to cover the mistakes of Mr. Yeddyurappa, he alleged.

Criticising BJP and the civil society members involved in anti-corruption agitatilon, Mr. Poojary said he wanted to know the reaction of L.K. Advani to the present situation in Karnataka since he had passed through the state recently as part of his yatra against corruption.

"Why Anna Hazare and Sri Sri Ravi Shankar are tightlipped about the corruption prevailing in Karnataka," he asked.

Accusing Ravi Shankar of being a Sangh Parivar supporter, Mr. Poojary said, the spiritual guru did not have any moral right to talk about corruption in Uttar Pradesh, when he was silent about the state of affairs in Karnataka.

Bengaluru, May 10 The asymptomatic and healthy people among international passengers will now have to undergo institutional quarantine for 14 days, according to the new standard operating procedure (SoP) issued by the Karnataka government for a third time.

The SoP, which has been revised twice, was issued by the Health and Family Welfare Department on Saturday, May 9.

The international passengers will be divided into two categories upon their arrival at the airports. Symptomatic will be directly sent to the covid-19 hospitals. Asymptomatic will not be allowed to go home directly. They will be sent for mandatory quarantine for 14 days in hotels and guest houses. 

Earlier, international passengers had to undergo seven days of institutional and seven days of home quarantine.

Passengers will also be tested only twice — once on arrival and for the second time on the 14th day — instead of the earlier decision to test thrice. They will be discharged from the facility if they test negative.

The first group of 350 people are expected to arrive from London at 3 am on Monday at the Kempegowda International Airport, said Lakshman Reddy, Joint Director, Social Welfare Department. 

Flights are expected from Singapore on May 13, Jeddah on May 14 and San Francisco on May 15. 

Among the stranded include 4,408 tourists and visitors, 3,084 students, 2,784 migrants and 557 ship crew.
