I won’t contest again against Siddaramaiah: G.T. Deve Gowda
Shivamogga, October 27: “There are no eternal foes and friends in politics. So, there is no question of contesting against Siddaramaiah again”, said Higher Education Minister G.T. Deve Gowda.
Speaking to reporters here on Saturday, the Minister said that “I don’t know whether the Election Commission is working as per the direction of the Central government or independently in the democratic system in the country. What is the intention of conducting elections to the constituencies for just five months? Either the Election Commission or the Central government should clarify about it. Those who will win this by-election will have just five months term. At least, let them enjoy the next five year term. Otherwise, stop holding such meaningless elections”, he said.
Chief Minister H.D Kumaraswamy has waived off the farm loans availed from cooperative banks and commercial banks. When he was the chief minister 12 years ago, Kumaraswamy had sanctioned degree colleges. Now once again, the government has taken steps to establish degree colleges and fill the vacant posts, he said.
Both Central government and the Election Commission should not allow a single person contesting from two constituencies simultaneously, he said.

Belagavi youth’s murder case projected as road accident, cracked in Uttara Kannada; Three arrested
Karwar: Uttara Kannada police have cracked a murder case in which a Belagavi youth was killed and his body burnt inside a car to make it appear like a road accident.
Addressing a press meet in the city, Superintendent of Police Deepan M.N. said three accused from Old Hubballi have been arrested in connection with the case. The crime was a pre-planned act driven by personal enmity, he said.
The case came to light on April 8 morning when a car (KA-04/MJ-8996) was found completely burnt in a roadside ditch near Talekumbri bus stand in Yellapur. Only charred human remains were found inside the vehicle. Initially, it was suspected to be an accident caused by overspeeding, and a case was registered at Yellapur police station based on a complaint filed by the deceased’s father, Jagannath Dhapale.
However, the father later expressed suspicion that his son’s death was not accidental, prompting a detailed investigation.
Taking the matter seriously, two special teams were formed under the leadership of Yellapur Inspector Ramesh Hanapur. On analysing technical evidence and CCTV footage, police found that it was a planned murder.
The accused have been identified as Abdul Raheem Basheer Ahmed Mujawar (32), Maulasab Bavahan Wada (36) and Dadapeer alias Aftab Mehboob Saab Balasangi (22), all chicken traders from Old Hubballi.
Police have seized the car used in the crime along with two scooters. The accused have been remanded to judicial custody.
Investigations revealed that the accused killed Nitesh Dhapale due to personal enmity and later set the car on fire along with the body to project it as an accident.
SP Deepan M.N. appreciated the efforts of Inspector Ramesh Hanapur, PSIs Rajashekhar Vandali and Siddappa Gudi, and the entire team for solving the complex case.
