Congress stages protest against Shobha Karandlaje
Bengaluru, October 20: Activists of the district Congress Committee staged a protest against BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje near the Gandhi statue at Mourya Circle in the city on Saturday, condemning her insulting statement on former chief minister Siddaramaiah.
Addressing the protesters, party leader S. Manohar said that Shobha Karandlaje has been using low level language against the Congress leaders just to get publicity. Her statement against former chief minister Siddaramaiah who ensured hunger-free Karnataka, transparent, corruption-free administration in his five years tenure would show her mental condition. Every person in the state knew that Shobha was the ‘poisonous snake’ in the BJP. Shobha Karandlaje who uses unparliamentary words against other leaders should speak about snakes and scorpions within her party, he said.
Congress Campaigning Committee President Janardhan, Leaders Saleem, Hemaraju, Parisara Ramakrishna, Raju, Ravishekar, Anand, Aditya, Rachana, Asha, Vijaya and others were present.

Kalaburagi Jail Chief Superintendent gets threat
Kalaburagi (Karnataka), Nov 28: Kalaburagi Jail Chief Superintendent R Anitha on Thursday said that an unknown person sent an audio message via a police inspector claiming that they will blow up her car.
However, police said they have not received any complaints in this regard.
Speaking to reporters here, Anitha said, "Somebody has sent an audio message to the police inspector saying that they will blow up my car. I personally did not receive any such message so far, so I would not be lodging any police complaint."
Following the alleged threat, Anitha said she would be more cautious now.
Last month, after Anitha took charge as the Chief Superintendent of Jail, raids were conducted and searches were intensified after photographs and video clips purportedly showing three inmates getting special treatment in the Kalaburagi Central prison went viral on social media.
Following the raids, cell phones, gutka and cigarette packets and beedis were seized from the inmates.
