Belagavi, Dec 26: Newly appointed Minister Satish Jarkiholi said that he was aware of his brother MLA Ramesh Jarkiholi's behaviour and will talk with him in a day or two to resolve discontent as 'it’s unavoidable'.

Satish told reporters here on Wednesday that Ramesh as a minister did not perform as expected nor responded to grievances of people.

"Discontent was natural for being dropped from cabinet. Will talk to him and convince. We have not met since Ramesh was dropped from cabinet," he said.

"Congress legislators were with the party and no one was rebelling. All have expressed their opinion in party forum. Since coalition government formed, BJP has been making efforts to destabilise it, but will not be succeeded," Jarkiholi added.

Mangaluru: The Mangaluru CEN police have arrested a 23-year-old man for allegedly posting provocative and misleading content on an Instagram page named “mr_a_titude”, targeting the Bajpe police.

Mangaluru Commissioner of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy C H identified the arrested as Abhishek M, a resident of Katipalla in Mangaluru.

A case has been registered at the Bajpe Police Station under Sections 353(1)(c), 353(2), 56, and 57 read with Section 189 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) in connection with the post.

According to police, the accused uploaded a photograph of a hotel on the Instagram page and alleged that accused persons in a murder case under the Bajpe police jurisdiction were being given “royal treatment” by the police, including being served beef meals daily from the hotel.

The post further accused the police of supporting criminals, misusing their authority, and betraying public trust. Police said the content was provocative in nature and aimed at inciting public outrage against the police.

Following the post, a case was registered at the Bajpe police station, and further investigation was transferred to the CEN police station.

Police records indicate that the accused has a criminal history, with multiple cases registered against him, including murder, attempt to murder, assault, and robbery at the Surathkal Police Station, and one case at the Kaup Police Station.

The Commissioner said the accused was traced and arrested using technical evidence.
