MP Nalin-Shobha bring bad name to D.K district: Prof. Radhakrishna
Mangaluru: The incidents of conflicts are on the rise in Dakshina Kannada district. MP Nalin Kumar Kateel and Shobha Karandlaje are responsible for this. Both of them have brought a bad name to DK district, alleged KPCC vice president and media division chief Pro. Radhakrishna.
Addressing a press conference at the district Congress office here on Monday, he said that there was togetherness among the Hindu-Muslim communities in Dakshina Kannada District. But, there was an attempt to ruin it for the political reason. “MPs Nalin Kumar and Shobha Karandlaje incited youths by inculcating religious and emotional feelings and ruined the harmony,” he said.
In the past four years, PM Modi has deceived the people by 37 announcements, including Sabka Vikas and Achhe Din. No announcement has been implemented evenly. The Modi government has not been able to prevent oil and gas prices from rising. Union Minister Arun Jaitley, Nirmala Sitaraman and Nitin Gadkari are lying. Vijay Mallya has said that he had spoken to Minister Arun Jaitley when he was leaving the country. When two politicians meet each other, they speak regarding politics and not household matters.
Similarly, Lalit Modi has also stated that Minister Sushma Swaraj had helped him. What is the response of Modi Bhakts to all these developments? Prof. Radhakrishna asked.
Party leader Ibrahim Kodijal, corporator AC Vinayaraj, DCC secretaries Bharathi, Neerajpal and office secretary Nazir Bajal were present.

Power tariffs under BESCOM to rise from May 1
Bengaluru (PTI): Power bills for consumers under the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited (BESCOM) will go up from May 1, following an order issued by the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) on Friday.
The hike comes after KERC allowed the BESCOM to recover a revenue deficit of Rs 2,068 crore incurred in 2024-25, from the consumers.
As a result, for every unit of electricity consumed in 2024-25, the customers will be charged an additional 56 paise, it said.
"BESCOM shall calculate, for each of the active consumers of FY2024-25 the amount to be recovered based on their actual energy consumption during FY2024-25. Such amount shall be recovered during FY 2026-27 in equal monthly instalments, to be called as 'FY25 True up Charges', commencing from the first meter reading date falling on or after 1 May 2026 and concluding with the reading date ending on 30 April 2027," the order said.
"It is further ordered that BESCOM shall maintain a separate head of account, allocated for the purpose, to record the adjustment of the said amount to ensure full recovery of the deficit," it added.
Similarly Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation Limited (CESC) has also recorded a revenue deficit of Rs 121.71 crore and can collect an additional 15 paisa per unit for consumption in 2024-25, official sources said.
