‘IT raid is politically motivated’
IT sleuths raid on house, office of businessman
Mangaluru, May 2: Income Tax department sleuths conducted a raid on the house and offices belonging to a businessman here on Tuesday evening.
It is said that the IT officials have conducted the raid on the house of Vaishnavi Express Cargo Private Limited Managing Director Rajesh GP at Morgangate in the city on Tuesday evening from 5 to 8 pm and verified the documents.
Admitting the raid, Rajesh told Varthabharati that the IT officials have verified all the documents and searched for cash. But they could not find anything. The officials have done their duty and he has also cooperated, he added.
“I am a businessman. Leaders of all political parties and politicians visit my house. Apart from them, hundreds of people of surrounding places including Hindus, Muslims, Christians are closely associated with me. But unfortunately, a leader of a national political party has failed to digest it. I have suspected his hands behind this IT raid. But I would disclose who is that person and his background in a couple of days”, Rajesh said.

India Post launches first ‘Gen Z’ post office in Bengaluru
Bengaluru: India Post has launched its first Gen Z Post Office in Bengaluru at the Acharya Institute of Technology, aiming to attract college students in an age dominated by emails, WhatsApp and social media.
According to a report published by The New Indian Express, Harsha MR, Assistant Superintendent, Bengaluru West Division Post Office, said the new post office, officially named Gen Z Post Office, Achit Nagar, Bengaluru (PIN 560107), will be inaugurated on Wednesday. It has been creatively designed and painted with graffiti by students of the institute to make it more appealing to young people.
He said “In the Gen Z post office, we have introduced two categories in one category, students can come and work with our staff and get good experience, know more about the schemes and services available under India Post”. “In another category, they can work with us part time and they will be provided with incentives but it is still in the pipeline and yet to be implemented.”
Harsha said the initiative is meant to bring postal services closer to students, researchers and the campus community. Similar Gen Z post offices are also planned at GITAM University and the National Law School of India University.
According to the report, they can also use the services to communicate with students across the campuses also. Unlike other post offices, it is a blend of physical and digital world giving students WIFI services, air-conditioned rooms and even coffee vending machines which Gen Z prefer to use.
Harsha said student representatives who will be in-charge of the campus work at post offices within the campus are yet to be decided.
“A roster will be prepared and different students will be given tasks to serve at various service counters. A senior post master will be in charge of Gen Z post offices and he will guide the students,” TNIE quoted Harsha as saying.
India Post officials allegedly said similar Gen Z post offices will soon be launched in Bengaluru North, South and East divisions as part of a broader effort to connect with younger generations.
