MLA Sriramulu booked
Bengaluru, August 01: BJP leader and MLA B Sriramulu was booked against giving a provocative statement on separate north Karnataka state, at Malleshwaram police station on Wednesday.
Kannada Implementation Board president R A Prasad and members lodged a complaint against Sriramulu at the police station demanding stringent action against the BJP leader.
Speaking to reporters later, Prasad said that Sriramulu had said that Telangana model protest should be launched for separate north Karnataka state, at a programme in Ballary on July 27 and supported the August 2 bandh call. Sriramulu was in a responsible position and it was not fair to give such statement. A complaint was lodged against him under the Karnataka State Reorganisation Act and the police should act against him, he said.

Allahabad High Court directs Centre to decide on Rahul Gandhi's citizenship by December 19
Prayagraj: The Allahabad High Court has instructed the Union Home Ministry to decide on a petition regarding Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Indian citizenship. The Bench, led by Justice Attau Rahman Masoodi and Justice Subhash Vidyarthi, set a deadline of December 19, 2024, for the government to update the Court on the matter.
The petition, filed by S Vignesh Shishir, requests a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into allegations that Rahul Gandhi holds British citizenship. Shishir claims that evidence, including confidential emails shared by VSS Sarma, suggests Gandhi may be a British citizen. However, due to UK data protection laws, the British government has not disclosed full details without Gandhi's consent.
During the November 25 hearing, Deputy Solicitor General SB Pandey informed the Court that the Home Ministry is reviewing the representation. The Court directed the government to report on the status of the petition by the next hearing on December 19.
A similar petition challenging Rahul Gandhi's citizenship is pending before the Delhi High Court, where the matter will be heard after the Allahabad High Court's proceedings.
