New law for Jawans: Deputy CM Parameshwar
Kargil Vijay Diwas Celebration
Bengaluru, July 26: Deputy Chief Minister Dr. G. Parameshwar has said that the government is trying to bring in a new law so that the families of martyred and retired jawans can get all their funds and facilities within three months.
The deputy chief minister said this after paying a rich tribute to the martyred jawans at the The National Military Memorial Park during the celebration of Kargil Vijay Diwas.
“More than 500 jawans were martyred in the 1999’s Kargil war. Their service and sacrifice are Commemorative. We celebrate this day to commemorate them. Many jawans survived in the Kargil war. I salute them too. Martyrs are ideal for today's younger generation,” he added.
Those jawans who are securing borders have dedicated their lives to this country. The process of giving compensation to them should not be delayed. That is why the Army Welfare Board was opened. Even then there is an allegation of delay in the process. So we are going to bring a new law. A law will be made so that the families of martyred and retired jawans can get all their funds and facilities within three months.
Responding to the BJP’s Ramanagar-to-Bengaluru Padayatra, he said the BJP has no moral right to take out such yatra. Instead of the yatra, they must go to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and ask for farmers’ loan waiver if they have concerns towards farmers’ problems. Manmohan Singh had waived off Rs 72,000 crore loans. Let the central government do the same. Let them take its credit also.
There is no attempt to ban media’s entry into Vidhana Soudha. There is an increase in the movements of unnecessary persons in the Vidhana Soudha. Besides, the police department has advised that it is better to cut off the movements of unnecessary persons in the Vidhana Soudha for security purpose. "We have discussed this issue," he said.

PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer fined for slow over rate vs CSK
Chennai (PTI): Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer was fined Rs 24 lakh for maintaining a slow over-rate during his team’s IPL 2026 match against Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium here.
The last season's runners-up PBKS secured their second sucessive win, defeating five-time champions Chennai Super Kings by five wickets here on Friday.
As this was Punjab Kings’ second offence of the season under Article 2.22 of the IPL Code of Conduct, which relates to minimum over-rate violations, the penalty was enhanced and Iyer was fined Rs 24 lakh, said the IPL media advisory.
"The rest of the members of the Playing XI, including the Impact Player, will be fined either INR six lakhs or 25 per cent of their respective match fees, whichever is lesser," it added.
