Sack George, don't cast aspersions on SC: BJP

Bengaluru, Oct 28: The BJP on Friday said the Congress, instead of sacking Bengaluru Development Minister K J George was casting aspersions on the Supreme Court.

Addressing a press conference here, Union Minister Prakash Javadekar said the Supreme Court had rejected the CID probe into the DySP M K Ganapathy case "lock, stock and barrel" and handed over investigation to the CBI.

Javadekar, who has been appointed BJP election in-charge of Karnataka, is in Bengaluru to review the preparations for the party's Nava Karnataka Parivarthana Yatra, scheduled to be launched on November 2.

"For fair investigation, the Apex Court asked the CBI to investigate the case. I am amazed that instead of sacking George, Congress leaders H M Revanna, K R Ramesh Kumar and C M Ibrahim are questioning the motives of the Supreme Court".

He said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's contention that the CID had filed a 'B' report in the case cannot be accepted. "But the 'B' report was not accepted by the Supreme Court. The 'B' report came before the forensic report, which stated that the photos, call details pertaining to the case were deleted," Javadekar said.

Hubballi/Vijayapura, Feb 26: A 40-year-old resident of Talikoti town in Vijayapura was arrested on Tuesday and charged with sedition for allegedly saying 'I Love Pak Army' on a social media page and sharing a video of a song, 'Pakistan Zindabad'.

Police said they registered an FIR against Meru alias Merusab Hasansab Byagwat on a complaint filed by a contractor, Ashok Rathod of Nebgiri Tanda.

Byagwat has been booked under IPC sections pertaining to sedition (124A), promoting enmity between communities and making assertions prejudicial to national integration (153 A & B), among others.

In his complaint, Rathod said Meru had posted the video on his social media account on February 22. Rathod said he took a screenshot of the video and made some inquiries before approaching police.

Police said Meru would be produced in court soon.

Police said they are keeping a watch on pro-Pakistan activities. On Monday, slogans praising Pakistan surfaced on the walls of a government primary school in Budarsinghi. In the third week of February, three Kashmiri students shot a video hailing Pakistan and circulated it on social media in Hubballi.

Mangaluru, Apr 12: Swift and strict action by the District Administration has resulted in the district achieving ‘Clean’ week with no new cases of COVID-19 reported for the seventh day in a row.

Meanwhile, in a happy coincidence, the district’s only infant allegedly affected – a ten month old child – was totally cured and discharged from the hospital along with infant’s mother and grandmother who were considered to the primary contacts. They are never tested positive for the virus, it is reported. Health experts attributed this to their natural immunity.

The child is said to have contracted the infection during a family visit to Kasargod, which has turned in to a Covid-19 hot spot. The family which hails from Sajipanadu in Bantwal-taluk had been kept in isolation ever since the child had tested positive on March 25. The quarantine was extended to the entire village as a preventive measure and the District Administration undertook the responsibility to providing essential supplies.
