Sangeeta claimed the assault was sparked by a complaint she had filed against Bagalkot BJP General Secretary Raju Naikar, accusing him of harassing her over a property issue. Mahantesh, on the other hand, claimed that he did not assault Sangeeta because he was provoked by someone.

Raju Naikar also dismissed the allegations, claiming that they were part of a political smear campaign against him. He claimed that he purchased the house legally, did not misuse his power, and did not instigate people to assault the woman. Sangeeta claimed that her uncle sold the house without informing her family. The case is still pending in court. She said that Naikar pressurised her to leave the house.

Mahantesh is a photographer at Bagalkot’s University of Horticulture Sciences in Navanagar. According to reports, the woman and Mahantesh are neighbors.

Meanwhile, former MLA H Y Meti paid a visit to the hospital to look at the woman’s condition.

Six minors were apprehended after a video of them allegedly riding two-wheelers holding the Palestinian flag surfaced on social media platforms, Karnataka Police said on Monday.

According to police, the incident took place on Sunday around 1 pm on Dantaramakki road in Chikkamagaluru town in Karnataka.

The official said that three of the 6 boys were on a two-wheeler and one of the pillion rider, a 17-year-old boy was allegedly holding and waving a Palestinian flag while three of their friends followed them on another bike.

They also shouted slogans on ‘free Palestine’, according to police.

A senior police officer said that police apprehended all the six boys involved in the incident. They are all minors, he added.

The police have registered a case under appropriate sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including sections for disturbing communal harmony, a police officer said. Adding that both the vehicles have been seized along with the flag, according to news agency PTI.

The police found during the interrogation that the boys had watched some videos of a procession in Uttar Pradesh in which people were seen carrying Palestinian flags and so they wanted to make a similar reel on Instagram.

Speaking on the matter earlier today, former BJP national General Secretary and MLC CT Ravi alleged that without permission a rally was held yesterday in more than 20 two-wheelers and one four-wheeler holding a Palestine flag.

Ravi said: “I have got information that some influential people had tried to influence in favour of the people involved, more than 200 people came in front of the police station, so an explanation was sought and they were let go. I urged the police for a detailed probe and to destroy the network behind them, the incident should not be taken lightly.”

Former Karnataka Chief Minister and senior BJP leader BS Yediyurappa has been booked under the POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Act, and 354 (A) IPC for assaulting a 17-year-old girl.

According to the FIR, the victim was sexually harassed on February 2 when she and her mother visited him seeking help in another alleged sexual assault case. Reportedly, the 81-year-old BJP leader sexually assaulted the victim after dragging her into a room. When the victim ran out of the room, she complained to her mother about the assault, as per the reports.

The mother of the minor girl filed a complaint with the Sadashivanagar Police in Bengaluru.

Meanwhile, Yediyurappa has rejected the allegation and questioned the timing of the complaint, coming just weeks ahead of the Lok Sabha election.

Addressing the media, the senior BJP leader said he helped the complainant financially. The timing is questionable since the FIR comes just ahead of the polls, he said.

He also claimed that the minor girl visited him seeking help with some cases of cheating. However, the girl didn’t speak to him properly which gave him the idea that she may not be mentally sound, the former CM said.

A few days ago a woman came to his house. She was crying saying that there was some problem. Yediyurappa asked her what was the matter and he personally called the police commissioner about the matter and told him to help her, the former Karnataka CM said while speaking to reporters. Later, the woman started talking against him. He brought this matter to the attention of the police commissioner, he added. However, police filed a complaint against him on Thursday.

Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara said a lady registered a complaint against Yediyurappa last night. Police have registered the case. Until they know the truth, they can’t reveal anything, he asserted. This is a sensitive thing as it involves a former CM and he added he doesn’t think there is any political angle to this. If the distressed woman needs protection, then it will be given, he further added.

The canteen, along with the kitchen has been constructed at a cost of Rs 1.35 crore. A BBMP official said that the passengers were also expected to have food at the canteen. He added many passengers are going to depend on Indira Canteen for their food.

After unveiling the canteen Siddaramaiah said they are starting 188 new Indira Canteens in Bengaluru taking the total count in the state to 600. He said 2 canteens have been started as per demand as per demand of taxi drivers and other drivers. He said 40 canteens have already been completed and the rest are underway. The Karnataka Chief Minister said the purpose of the Indira Canteen is to provide meals and breakfast to the poor at low rates.

He said breakfast will be provided at Rs 5 and lunch and dinner will be available at Rs 10. The chief minister said the food menu has been changed and a dining hall has been arranged. He said Indira Canteens will be set up in every ward of Bengaluru and also in other parts of the state.
