Bengaluru, Apr1: Opposition leader in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly B S Yeddyurappa, who is also BJP State President, took strong exception to AICC President Rahul Gandhi referring to alleged Dairy contents and taking his name stating he had paid Rs 1800 crore to BJP central leaders when he was the chief minister.

Rahul Gandhi while launching joint election campaign with JDS Supremo H D Devegowda here on Sunday had alleged that Yeddyurappa has stated that the Dairy that he (Yeddyurappa) had sent crores of rupees to Union Ministers Nitin Gadkeri, Arun Jaitely and Rajnath Singh, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi claims himself as 'Chowkidar' of the nation.

Taking strong exception to Rahul Gandhi's allegations, Yeddyurappa, in a statement here, said that "AICC chief Rahul Gandhi should immediately stop making irresponsible statements. Despite the officials of the IT department describing the contents of the so called diary found in Congress leader D K Shivakumar during an IT department as "fake", Rahul Gandhi referring to alleged Rs 1800 crore entry in the diary was nothing but irresponsible and unfounded allegation.

‘Profit’ trap: Mangaluru trader duped of ₹33.1 lakh in online App scam

December 7,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A 34-year-old fruit and vegetable trader in Mangaluru has reportedly lost ₹33.1 lakh after falling victim to an online investment scam run through a fake mobile app.

Police said the scam began in September, when the victim received a link on Facebook. Clicking it connected him to a WhatsApp number, where an unidentified person introduced a high-return investment scheme and instructed him to download an app.

To build trust, the fraudster asked him to invest ₹30,000 on September 24. The trader soon received ₹34,000 as “profit,” convincing him the scheme was genuine. Over the next two months, he transferred money in multiple instalments via Google Pay and IMPS to different scanner codes and bank accounts shared by the scammers. Between September 24 and December 3, he ended up sending a total of ₹33.1 lakh.

When he later requested a refund of his investment and promised returns, the scammers demanded additional payments, claiming he needed to pay a “service tax” first. Even after he paid a small amount, no money was returned, and the scammers continued pressuring him for more.

A case has been registered at the CEN Crime Police Station.
