Bengaluru, Apr 12: CCB sleuths on Wednesday recorded the statement of R V Yuvaraj, BBMP corporator and the son of Chickpet MLA, R V Devaraj, over the pub brawl case involving Mohammed Haris Nalapad.

The CCB during the course of the investigation found that Yuvaraj was present in Farze Cafe, UB City, on February 17 when Nalapad and his associates reportedly assaulted Vidwath L, a fellow diner.

Yuvaraj, however, denied being present in the pub during the incident and said he went there only half an hour later after learning about it. He said when he went to the pub, there was no one around and he returned. He also clarified that he was nowhere connected to the case.

On Tuesday, CCB sleuths summoned PWD Minister H C Mahadevappa's son Sunil Kumar Bose in connection with the case. The CCTV footage showed he was one of those present in the pub during the incident. The footage shows him overseeing the assault from close to the table where the incident happened.

Bose, however, told the sleuths that he was quite far away from the spot of the incident and that he just remembered it as an argument between two groups.

Such a great fellow he is.. He will do classes on drug related issues among young generation and at the same time he will do all

nonsence and crimes after having drugs.. He is real living example or he just showing the all things in practical

If police and court delaying punishment, by doing questioning and evidence collection, then he will escape easily with his father's influence and money

He is too young in age... There are more evidences of his crime. He just proved he is a born criminal. Punish him properly

CCTV footage is there and vitness, victim is there.. then what. Police wanted to give him VIP treatment..?

Mangaluru’s ₹1,200 crore fix: Massive sewage overhaul to end city’s drainage woes

News Network

December 19,2025

Mangaluru: In a decisive move to tackle the city’s deteriorating sanitation infrastructure, the Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) has announced a massive ₹1,200 crore action plan to overhaul its underground drainage (UGD) network.

The initiative, spearheaded by Deputy Commissioner and MCC Administrator Darshan HV, aims to bridge "missing links" in the current system that have left residents grappling with overflowing sewage and environmental hazards.

The Breaking Point

The announcement follows a high-intensity phone-in session on Thursday, where the DC was flooded with grievances from frustrated citizens. Residents, including Savithri from Yekkur, described a harrowing reality: raw sewage from apartments leaking into stormwater drains, creating a "permanent stink" and turning residential zones into mosquito breeding grounds.

"We are facing immense difficulties due to the stench and the health risks. Local officials have remained silent until now," one resident reported during the session.

The Strategy: A Six-Year Vision

DC Darshan HV confirmed that the proposed plan is not a temporary patch but a comprehensive six-year roadmap designed to accommodate Mangaluru’s projected population growth. Key highlights of the plan include:

• Infrastructure Expansion: Laying additional pipelines to connect older neighborhoods to the main grid.

• STP Crackdown: Stricter enforcement of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) regulations. While new apartments are required to have functional STPs, many older buildings lack them entirely, and several newer units are reportedly non-functional.

• Budgetary Push: The plan has already been discussed with the district in-charge minister and the Secretary of the Urban Development Department. It is slated for formal presentation in the upcoming state budget.
