Mangaluru: Additional fees for parking at airport alleged
Mangaluru, Sept 15: The public has expressed outrage over the alleged additional parking fees at the Airports Authority of India Mangaluru Airport.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, a man Beary Zulfi of Mangaluru questioned a staff member why you are charging additional fees while Rs 55 for parking is mentioned on the board.
The staff member acted as if he does not know anything. Then he replied “Ticket machine is not working properly. So there is a problem. Therefore, you have to pay extra fees." Then Zulfi urged the staff to write down on the ticket that he was charging Rs. 60 instead of 55.
“In many cases, people pay the fees but do not take tickets. Then the staff passes on the same ticket to the next vehicle. These sorts of incidents are increasing,” Zulfi alleged.
‘Action will be taken if the incident happened.'
“We have not received any complaints about such an incident. The appropriate receipt should be given after collecting the prescribed fee. If such incidents have occurred, action would be taken after carrying out the investigation,” Mangaluru International Airport Authority Director Venkateshwar Rao informed 'Vartha Bharati.'

Kantara mimicking case: HC extends interim relief given to actor Ranveer Singh till March 9
Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka High Court on Monday extended the interim relief given to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh till March 9, in a case related to mimicking a character from the movie, 'Kantara Chapter-1', and allegedly mocking a deity.
The actor had approached the High Court seeking the quashing of the FIR against him for mimicking Rishab Shetty's role as 'Chavunda' deity in the movie.
While mimicking, Singh had called the deity a "ghost". The actor was asked to appear before the court in person on Monday.
Appearing on behalf of the actor, his counsel Sajjan Poovayya said Singh was stuck in London and was unable to reach Bengaluru due to the conflict in West Asia.
The complainant, who is a lawyer, alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt by calling the deity a ghost. On the directions of a local Court, the police registered a case against the actor.
The High Court on February 24 granted interim relief to the actor with directions to the police not to take any coercive steps against him.
