Belthangady, June 21: With the timely action, a 5th standard student rescued his friend from falling into the flowing stream while crossing it over the foot-bridge at Phandije in Nittade village in the taluk on Thursday evening.

While crossing the stream on the foot-bridge made out of areca palms, Aditya slipped and started falling into the stream. Noticing this, Sujay tried to rescue him. Sujay caught one of the Uday’s legs and tried to lift him. As Aditya was hanging below the foot-bridge along with his bag and umbrella, Sujay was unable to lift him up. So, Sujay started shouting for help along with Aditya. Hearing their shouting, Jayananda Sate and Adiyta father Rathnakar Hebbar and others rushed to the spot and lifted Aditya up. For more than five minutes, Sujay was holding his friend from falling into the stream and thus rescued him.

Mumbai, Nov 24: There is unrest in the Maha Vikas Aghadi camp and its five to six MLAs might join the ruling Mahayuti in the next few months, claimed NCP chief whip Anil Patil, who has retained his Amalner assembly seat, on Sunday.

The MVA of Congress, NCP (SP) and Shiv Sena (UBT) suffered a crushing blow in the Maharashtra assembly polls, winning only 46 of the state's 288 seats. By contrast, the BJP-led ruling coalition, which also has NCP and Shiv Sena as partners, bagged an impressive 230 seats.

“There is tremendous unrest among some NCP (SP), Congress and Sena (UBT) MLAs who have been re-elected. Those having good relations with us have expressed concerns over MVA’s massive defeat,” Patil told Marathi news channel ABP Majha.

If one wants development works in his constituency, it is good to be in power, said the legislator from Ajit Pawar’s party.

“The MVA MLAs feel their future is uncertain. It shouldn’t be a surprise if five to six MLAs cross over to the Mahayuti in the next four months,” he said.

In the results of the Maharashtra polls declared on Saturday, BJP won in 132 constituencies, while its partners Shiv Sena and NCP walked away with 57 and 41 seats, respectively.

From the MVA camp, Shiv Sena (UBT) bagged 20 seats followed by Congress’ 16 and 10 by NCP (SP).
