Bengaluru, July 25: The Karnataka High Court on Wednesday issued notice to Jagalur MLA SV Ramachandra against winning the Assembly election by producing fake caste certificate. The HC also issued notices to remaining 11 candidates contested in the last Assembly election.
Hearing an application filed by the defeated candidate HV Rajesh from Congress, the High Court issued notices to BJP MLA SV Ramachandra and 11 other candidates. The advocate, who argued in favour of the applicant, said that the Jagalur Assembly constituency was reserved for ST category. But MLA Ramachandra belonged to Maratha community which comes under backward classes. He appealed the High Court to disqualify him from the post of MLA following this issue. He also appealed the court to announce the second highest votes taker as the winner in the election. Hearing the argument, the Court postponed the further hearing to August 20.

Kalaburagi: A 29-year-old woman, Jyothi, who was a resident of the Sangameshwara Colony in the city, was allegedly murdered and her body set on fire, in an incident reported from Itaga village of Kalaburagi taluk.
Jyothi, who got married 10 years ago, had left her husband five years ago, returned to her parents’ house and was living there since then. Jyothi had gone out of home on Thursday morning; in the afternoon, however, her body was found in a charred state.
