BJP attempts to storm Vidhana Soudha blaming govt for communal unrest

Bengaluru, Nov 24: The BJP leaders’ effort to storm Vidhana Soudha to protest the ‘failure’ of the Congress government on Monday failed as the police took a host of the party leaders into custody. They were released later.

The party leaders took out a procession towards the Vidhana Soudha but were intercepted near Maharani College.

Before the procession began, former chief minister and BJP?National Vice President B S?Yeddyurappa came down heavily on the Congress government at the rally at Freedom Park.

“The State government is trying to create communal disharmony across the State to divert attention of the people as the government has failed on all fronts. There is a total breakdown of law and order.?The number of atrocities against the women are on the rise, while the murders have shot up,” he said.

He said the Centre has released Rs 1,350 crore to tackle drought, but the State government has not used the funds.?It has also failed to prevent farmers’ suicides, he alleged.

‘Govt siding with Rao’

BJP?State president Pralhad Joshi claimed that the Congress was registering cases against BJP workers.

“The government is protecting Lokayukta Justice Bhaskar Rao and is planning to impeach Upalokayukta. Siddaramaiah has not taken any action against Social Welfare Minister Anjaneya despite corruption charges against him,” he said.

Former deputy chief minister K S?Eshwarappa said the government celebrated Tipu Jayanti only to appease the minorities.

“This government has forgotten Valmiki and Kanakadasa and such other great men,” he said. The leaders later submitted a memorandum to Governor Vajubhai Vala.

Lok Sabha member Shobha Karandlaje, MLC?V?Somanna, former deputy chief minister R?Ashoka took part in the protest.

Elusive bamboo shrimp resurfaces in Mangaluru estuary after 70 years

News Network

December 7,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A rare bamboo shrimp has been rediscovered on mainland India more than 70 years after it was last reported, confirming for the first time the presence of Atyopsis spinipes in the country. The find was made by researchers from the Centre for Climate Change Studies at Sathyabama Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai, during surveys in Karnataka and Odisha.

The team — shrimp expert Dr S Prakash, PhD scholar K Kunjulakshmi, and Mangaluru-based researcher Maclean Antony Santos — combined field surveys, ecological assessments and DNA analysis to identify the elusive species. Their findings, published in Zootaxa, resolve decades of taxonomic confusion stemming from a 1951 report that misidentified the species as Atyopsis moluccensis without strong evidence.

The shrimp has now been confirmed at two locations: the Mulki–Pavanje estuary near Mangaluru and the Kuakhai River in Bhubaneswar. Historical specimens from the Andaman Islands, previously labelled as A. moluccensis, were also found to be misidentified and actually belong to A. spinipes.

The rediscovery began after an aquarium hobbyist in Odisha spotted a shrimp in 2022, prompting systematic surveys across Udupi, Karwar and Mangaluru. Four female specimens were collected in Mulki and one in Odisha, all genetically matching.

Researchers warn the species may exist in very small, vulnerable populations as freshwater habitats face increasing pressure from pollution, sand mining and infrastructure development. All verified specimens have been deposited with the Zoological Survey of India for future reference.
