Mangaluru, Jan 6: A Criminal investigation department team, which is probing into the case of Shyamprasad Shastry who committed suicide in connection with rape charge against Sri Raghaveshwara Swami, has reportedly found evidence against RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat.

Shyamprasad Shastry(48), a resident of Badekkila of Kedila Village near Mani, and an office bearer of Vivekananda Vidyavardka Sangha, Puttur, had allegedly committed suicide by shooting self with a gun in August 2014.

He is the brother of Divakar Shastry, whose daughter accused Shri Ramachandrapur Mutt seer of sexual harassment. A week prior to the incident Honnavar police had arrested singer Premalatha and her husband Divakar Shastry in Bangalore on charge of blackmailing Raghaveshwara Bharati seer.

This led to Premalatha's daughter lodging a complaint against the seer in Banashankari police station that her mother was complaining that she has been sexually abused against her will by the seer.

CID sources now claimed that they have gathered credible information over alleged telephone threat by the RSS leader to Shyamprasad Shastry before the latter ended his life.

The forensic laboratory also has reportedly confirmed that the voice of Bhat and Shastry in their last telephone conversation clip, which was obtained by the CID last year.

However, it is not yet known whether the CID police will take any action against Bhat, who had evaded arrest several times in hate speech cases.

If Mr.Bhat arrested then it will be in Guinnus Book of records!! Congress Government have no guts to do it!! Mr. Bhat a well known figure in creating communal tension involving directly / indirectly in various types of crimes in our district since 35 years!!! but no Government so far not even able to file an FIR against him!! This is very sad news for peace loving people of this district. In this case also CID is helpless.

This person actually divides the community with his poisonous speech causing hatred among people.
It is individuals choice how he/she wants to live.
How can he impose Hindutwa on others who has his own principles.

There is a limit for toleration and patience, one day when the limit exceeds, then automatically faces the consequence.

If the law can not protect, then it needs to protect the law and do the justice to all.

Wake up

Mangaluru, Nov 28: Karnataka Health Minister and Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister Dinesh Gundu Rao on Friday handed over Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, highlighting the severe distress faced by farmers due to crashing crop prices.

PM Modi arrived at the Mangaluru International Airport en route to Udupi, where Gundu Rao welcomed him and submitted the letter. The chief minister’s message stressed that farmers are suffering heavy losses because maize and green gram are being bought far below the Minimum Support Price (MSP). The state urged the Centre to immediately begin procurement at MSP.

According to the letter, Karnataka has a bumper harvest this year—over 54.74 lakh metric tons of maize and 1.98 lakh metric tons of green gram—yet farmers are unable to secure fair prices. Against the MSP of ₹2,400/MT for maize and ₹8,768/MT for green gram, market rates have plunged to ₹1,600–₹1,800 and ₹5,400 respectively.

The chief minister has requested the Centre to:

• Direct NAFED, FCI and NCCF to start MSP procurement immediately.
• Ensure ethanol units purchase maize directly from farmers or FPOs.
• Increase Karnataka’s ethanol allocation, citing high production capacity.
• Stop maize imports, which have depressed domestic prices.
• Relax quality norms for green gram, allowing up to 10% discoloration due to rains.

The letter stresses that MSP is crucial for farmer dignity and income stability and calls for swift central intervention to prevent a deepening crisis.

Udupi, Dec 1: A horrific case of alleged rape has unfolded in Udupi, where a worker from a Hindutva organisation, previously arrested and released on bail for harassing a young woman, is now accused of waylaying and sexually assaulting her.

The arrested individual has been identified as Pradeep Poojary (26), a member of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's Nairkode unit in Perdur.

Poojary had allegedly been relentlessly harassing the young woman, pressuring her to marry him. When she bravely stood up to him and refused his demands, she filed a formal complaint at the Hiriyadka police station. He was subsequently arrested in that initial harassment case but was later granted bail.

According to police reports, driven by the same malicious grudge, Poojary allegedly intercepted the woman again on November 29. While she was walking through a deserted area, the accused is claimed to have threatened her by grabbing her neck. When she again refused to marry him, he allegedly proceeded to rape her.

The survivor immediately informed her family about the traumatic assault. Following this, her parents lodged a complaint at the Udupi women’s police station.

Police arrested Poojary again and produced him before the court. He has since been remanded to judicial custody.
