Chikmagaluru, Feb 22: The mistake in printing the name of Lok Sabha Member Shobha Karandlaje in the invitation card of the Railway Ministry for a programme at Tarikere town has created controversy.

The South Western Railways has organised a inauguration of upgradation of platform programme and other various development works. The Lok Sabha Member was supposed to inaugurate the programme. But in the invitation card printed for inaugural programme, the name of Shobha Karandlaje was Mrs Shobha Karandlaje instead of Miss Shobha Karandlaje.

As per hindu tradition, a married woman would be called as Mrs and unmarried would be called as Miss. Since Shobha Karandlaje has identified as unmarried and her name was being called as Miss Shobha Karandlaje. But the Railway Ministry has printed her name as Mrs Shobha Karandlaje and photos of the invitation card have gone viral in social media and people are questioning 'When did Shobha get married?’

"The name of the Lok Sabha Member should have been Miss Shobha Karandlaje in the invitation card. The card was printed by South West Railways Hubballi head office. All invitation cards have come from Hubballi. It could have been occurred due to mistake".

Mumbai (PTI): The Mumbai police have registered a case against a man for allegedly duping seven persons of Rs 91 lakhs on the promise of awarding them works of different government departments, an official said on Tuesday.

The accused was identified as Satish Kadam, a resident of Nanded in Marathwada region, an official said.

A complaint was filed by Hanumant Vadje, who alleged that the accused cheated him and six others of around Rs 91 lakh by promising to give them various works of Urban Development and Social Justice Department, he said.

The fraud occurred between 2024 and 2026, with Kadam collecting money in cash and into his accounts, police said, adding he had returned some amount to them partially.

Multiple cheques issued by the accused bounced, prompting the victim to lodge a complaint at the Marine Drive police station. Based on the complaint, a case of cheating and criminal breach of trust was registered against him.

The case is under further investigation, the official said.
