Udupi, June 15: From June 15, Friday, Udupi and Kundapur Traffic police will track the traffic violators using Black Berry technology.

This will help in bringing in efficiency, transferency in Traffic management, said Udupi SP Boralingaiah MB, after announcing the launch of the system here on Friday. He told media persons that the system has been introduced in Udupi and Kundapur city areas, coming under the jurisdiction of respective traffic police stations.

For the purpose eight Black Berry equipment units and mini printers had already been supplied by the State police department and they would be handled by Sub Inspectors and Assistant Sub Inspectors.

The system helps in traffic management, as the information on each traffic violation, fed to Black Berry, would be registered at the Centralised Database at Bangalore. ``Once the system comes in to effect completely, it automatically cancels the driving licence of a driver or a motor cyclist, on the third violation'', he said adding the system has been introduced in Bangalore and functioning successfully.

Bengaluru, Jul 29: A day after Congress staged a nationwide 'Save Democracy' protest, Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Kumaraswamy slammed Congress for "dividing" the political parties and "buying MLAs" and questioned their "democratic behaviour" to lure Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MLAs who supported them.

Kumaraswamy, in a media statement, said, "Is it a democratic behaviour to lure MLAs of other parties through political shenanigans and later merging with them?"

"Congress is an expert in dividing political parties and purchase of MLAs," said Kumaraswamy adding, "If you are dividing the like-minded party MLAs through deceit, who would support you?"

He alleged that the term "horse trade" in politics came to be used because of Congress.

Congress had tied to divide the Janata Dal (Secular) in 2004. To this, he added, "To avoid the party being hijacked by the Congress, I had to oust the Congress-JD(S) coalition government through a political coup."

Kumaraswamy further accused, "Haven't the Congress who is making a big noise about the purchase of MLAs divided the JD(S) in the past? Is it not a fact that for the sake of one Rajya Sabha seat, the Congress government in Karnataka purchased eight JD(S) MLAs?"

Both -- Congress and BJP -- are "criminals" in purchase matter, he added.

Rajasthan Congress is in turmoil after simmering differences between Sachin Pilot and Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot came out in the open. Pilot was removed as the Deputy Chief Minister and the state unit chief of Congress.

The Congress has accused the BJP of indulging in horse-trading to bring down the Gehlot government. The BJP has rejected the allegations.
