Will campaign against Pramod Madhwaraj’s scam in the constituency: RTI Activist Abraham TJ
Udupi: RTI Activist Abraham TJ on Saturday added that he will campaign against the JD(S) Udupi-Chikmagalur Lok Sabha Constituency Candidate Pramod Madhwaraj, who he alleged had availed loan of Rs. 193 crores but has showed his wealth to be only one crore on papers.
In March 2018, Abraham had filed a complaint in Finance Ministry that Madhwaraj had availed loan of Rs. 193 crores from Syndicate Bank’s Malpe branch. Pramod had then filed a defamation suit in Udupi court in the matter.
Speaking to reporters after appearing before the court in the case Abraham said “I will highlight this issue throughout the constituency and urge people to vote anybody except Madhwaraj. The man who loots the country should not go to Parliament”.
“This is personal decision, not affiliated to any party. I will take this opportunity of election against Madhwaraj who used the court against me”
“He filed defamation case against me to harass me, he has violated my human right. Now it is time to pay back, I will teach him the lesson during the election. I am also preparing to file criminal case against him, I have all the data against him which will bring all his deeds in public” he added.
“I have been attending the court regularly. This is the 11th time I have appeared before court while Madhwaraj has given the hearing a miss on many occasions. Last time the court had compulsorily asked Madhwaraj to be present today but he again did not appear. Now the court has asked him to be present during next hearing” he said while briefing about the case progress.
The court has now posted the next hearing on May 4.

KKR defeat LSG via Super Over
Lucknow (PTI): Kolkata Knight Riders edged Lucknow Super Giants via Super Overs in a battle between two bottom-placed teams in the IPL, here on Sunday.
Chasing a modest 156, LSG suffered a batting collapse and managed to tie the contest and take it to Super Over with No. 9 Mohammed Shami striking a last-ball six against a wayward Kartik Tyagi, who leaked 16 runs in the final over.
But Sunil Narine bowled a stunning Super Over conceding just one run and taking two wickets to give KKR an easy target.
Rinku Singh then finished the chase with a boundary off first ball from Prince Yadav.
Earlier the KKR were in deep trouble with 93/7 in 15 overs but Rinku smashed a sensational 83 not out from 51 balls including four sixes in a row in the final over to lift them to 155/7.
Cameron Green (34) was the only other batter to reach double-digit scores as KKR suffered a familiar batting meltdown with Mohsin taking his maiden fifer.
In reply, LSG continued their dismal show with the bat to succumb to their fifth loss in a row.
Brief Scores:
Kolkata Knight Riders 155/7; 20 overs (Rinku Singh 83 not out, Cameron Green 34; Mohsin Khan 5/23). Lucknow Super Giants 155/8; 20 overs (Rishabh Pant 42). KKR won via Super Over.
