Life of Madhukar Shetty itself is a message to the youth: DCP Abdul Ahad Puthige
Udupi, Jan 11: Bengaluru Whitefield DCP Abdul Ahad Puthige said that for the first time, IPS officer Madhukar Shetty entered into the Legislators Home in Bengaluru and arrested a corrupt MLA.
He was speaking at a programme organized to pay respect to senior IPS officer late Madhukar Shetty, by Udupi district Muslim Okkoota at Ammanni Ramanna Shetty Auditorium here on Friday. He said that Madhukar Shetty played a major role in punishing those who were involved in Bellari illegal mining. The life of Madhukar Shetty itself was a message to the youth. The onus of continuing his message was on people now.
“We could pay our respect just by working against the corruption and helping the oppressed classes and raising voice in favour of the truth and justice. Madhukar Shetty had clear vision on checking corruption. He believed that corruption could not be checked just by arresting the clerks or constables. Instead, one has to find out the root cause of corruption. If he was given just two more years time and support, he would have completely controlled the corrupt activities in the state ”, Ahad Puthige opined.

UP: 90 Bangladeshis, including 28 children, held in Mathura for illegal stay
Mathura (UP), May 16 (PTI): As many as 90 Bangladeshi nationals, including many children, were apprehended from Uttar Pradesh's Mathura district on Friday for alleged illegal stay in India, officials said.
They were taken into custody from local brickyards at Khajpur village under the Naujheel police station limits, a senior officer said.
"Regular searches were being conducted throughout the district. During one such operation, police were searching some local brickyards when they came across Bangladeshi nationals working there," SSP Shlok Kumar said.
Giving a break-up, the officer said in all, 35 men, 27 women and 28 children have been taken into custody.
"During interrogation, all of them admitted to being Bangladeshi nationals living illegally in India. They moved to Mathura three to four months back from a neighbouring state. Police are trying to establish their links," the SSP said, adding that their job contractor and other associates are also being questioned.
The officer told PTI that police also recovered some Aadhaar cards from the Bangladeshi nationals, apparently issued on forged documents in some other state.
Further legal proceedings are underway, Kumar said.
