New Delhi: The Kshatriya Karni Sena has announced a reward of ₹1,11,11,111 for the encounter of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. In a video statement, the organisation's national president, Raj Shekhawat, declared that the reward would be given to any police officer who kills Bishnoi, citing concerns over public safety. The announcement comes after Bishnoi's gang claimed responsibility for the murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique in Mumbai.

Lawrence Bishnoi, currently imprisoned in Gujarat's Sabarmati jail on charges of cross-border drug smuggling, has been involved in multiple high-profile cases. His gang has also claimed responsibility for the murder of Khalistani sympathiser Sukha Duneke and the firing outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan's residence in April.

Raj Shekhawat criticised both the central government and the Gujarat government, holding them accountable for not tackling the growing threat posed by Bishnoi's criminal network. He also accused Bishnoi of being responsible for the murder of Karni Sena chief Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi in December 2023.

The gang's criminal activities have expanded across the country and internationally, with their involvement in shootings outside the residences of celebrities like AP Dhillon and Gippy Garewal in Canada.

BENGALURU: Karnataka home minister G Parameshwara on Monday alleged Electronic Voting Machine manipulations led to the defeat of Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance in just concluded assembly polls in Maharashtra.

While speaking to reporters here on Monday, he said the BJP does selective manipulations to convince people that there were no wrongdoings. He also wanted to go back to the paper ballots system.

The ruling BJP-led Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra won a landslide victory in the assembly elections, shattering the Congress-led Maha Vikas Aghadi's dream to wrest power. The BJP won the highest ever 132 seats for the party, while the Shiv Sena led by Shinde bagged 57 seats and NCP won 41 seats to take the Mahayuti total to 230 seats. Congress as part of MVA won just 16 seats.

"We analysed the Maharashtra poll outcome deeply. We felt that in many places EVMs were manipulated," Parameshwara said. He also said an obvious question would be why not it happened in Jharkhand and elsewhere. The manipulations are done selectively so that no one can question it, he blamed.

According to him, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha is a leading partner. Had the Congress been the leading partner, things would have changed. He backed the ballot papers saying that the same was discussed in Maharashtra Congress as well.
