Bengaluru: BBMP member Imran Pasha held for taking out procession post-discharge
Bengaluru: Imran Pasha, member of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike from Padarayanapura, was arrested on Sunday, for participating in a procession by his fans.
The followers organised the procession when the corporator was discharged from hospital after treatment for Corona infection. The doctors had instructed Pasha to return home directly and stay in home quarantine, but the corporator has been accused of indulging in a road show with his followers.
Following the arrest of Pasha by JJ Nagar police, Padarayanapura was sealed down again. The police also went on a beat to find people who were roaming around the area.
In addition, CrPC Section 144 was imposed in Padarayanapura. Two KSRP and Garuda squad police staff were put on duty in the area.
MLA demands action
Legislator Zameer Ahmed has condemned Pasha going out in procession after discharge.
“I was glad that Pasha has recovered from an attack of Corona, but it was not right of him to take out a rally like a candidate who has won an election. I request the authorities to take suitable legal action against him,” he urged.
“When the entire state is struggling against Corona, taking out a procession with hundreds of people was very irresponsible of Pasha. If the people who should instruct the citizens to maintain social distance are themselves so careless, how can it be acceptable?” Ahmed added.

New York, Apr 30 (PTI): New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he would encourage King Charles III to return the Koh-i-Noor diamond.
“If I was to speak to the King separately from that, I would probably encourage him to return the Koh-i-Noor diamond,” Mamdani said at a press conference Wednesday before he met the British monarch in the city later in the day. Mamdani was asked what he would say to the King, who visited New York City on the second day of his State Visit to the US.
King Charles addressed a joint meeting of the US Congress Tuesday, as he and Queen Camilla were honoured at a state dinner hosted by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump in the White House.
King Charles and Queen Camilla visited the 9/11 Memorial in the city and paid their respects to the victims of the terror attack.
They also visited Harlem Grown, a network of urban farms supporting children and families in Upper Manhattan.
Mamdani met King Charles at the 9/11 memorial. The 105.6-carat Koh-i-Noor diamond was given to Queen Victoria in 1849 by Maharajah Duleep Singh. It was worn by the Queen Mother on her crown in 1937.
India has indicated that it will continue to explore ways to bring back the Koh-i-noor from the United Kingdom.
The country has been raising the matter from time to time with the UK government and said it will continue to explore ways and means for obtaining a “satisfactory resolution of the matter.”
The Koh-i-Noor diamond is currently displayed at the Tower of London. The diamond, set within the Crown of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, has "many previous owners, including Mughal Emperors, Shahs of Iran, Emirs of Afghanistan, and Sikh Maharajas,” according to the Historic Royal Palaces charity.
The 34-year-old Indian-descent Mamdani is the son of renowned filmmaker Mira Nair and Columbia University professor Mahmood Mamdani.
He is the first Muslim, the first Indian-origin, the first born in Africa, and the youngest one in more than a century to become New York Mayor.
