Shobha Karandlaje booked for ‘insulting’ Hindus sentiments
Bengaluru, June 8: MP and state BJP general secretary Shobha Karandlaje was booked at the Vidhana Soudha police station against ‘insulting’ the sentiments of Hindu religion.
In his complaint, advocate S Nataraj Sharma urged the police to register case against Shobha Karandlaje under Column 298 for insulting the seers of Hindu religion and take legal action against her. In her press conference, Karandlaje said that Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji of Pejawar Mutt was a Sanyasi and he was aged. He could not watch television. Such statements would hurt the Sanyasis, he said in the complaint.
Pejawar seer spoke against the central government for its failure in cleaning the river Ganges and bringing back the black money.
But while responding to this, Shobha has given irresponsible statement on the seer and insulted him. So, action should be taken against the BJP leader, he demanded.

Online fraud: Hotel chef from Udupi cheated of over Rs 1 lakh by WhatsApp contact
Udupi: Udupi City Police have registered a case of online fraud after a 62-year-old hotel chef was allegedly cheated of Rs 1.13 lakh by a woman who befriended him on WhatsApp, claiming to be based in London.
The victim, identified as Pandu Kariappa Poojary, a resident of Kuthpadi in Udupi, was working at a hotel in Mangaluru.
He reportedly came into contact with a woman identifying herself as Emilda William on WhatsApp. During their interactions, she told Poojary that she planned to start a cosmetics and hotel business in India and would meet him during a visit to Mangaluru.
On April 7, Emilda sent Poojary a flight ticket from London to Delhi via WhatsApp. The following day, Poojary received a phone call from a woman who informed him that Emilda had arrived at Delhi airport carrying a demand draft worth Rs 5 crore along with other items. The caller allegedly asked him to pay Rs 70,000.
Subsequently, Poojary also received a call from Emilda, who was reportedly crying and spoke about the situation. Believing the claims, he transferred a total of Rs 1,13,300 in phases using a scanner. He later realised that he had been cheated.
