Ramsena State President arrested for duping man by promising post of VC at Mangaluru University
Mangaluru: Local police on Monday arrested the Ramsena State President Prasad Attavar for allegedly duping people of money by promising them the job of Vice-Chancellor at Mangalore University.
Prasad Attavar who heads the state unit of Ramsena and is also the founder of the Hindu organization had reportedly promised one person named Vivek Acharya of elevating him to the position of Vice-Chancellor at the Mangalore University and had duped him of 17.5 lakhs rupees. A case in this regard was registered at Kankanady Police Station in the city following which he was arrested on Monday.
According to the reports, Vivek was lobbying for himself for the post of VC as he believed he was the able contender for the post at the Mangalore University where he was posted as Chemistry Professor. Taking advantage of the situation, Prasad approached him and claimed that he can elevate him as the VC of the university using his connection with the Chief Minister.
Prasad reportedly sought 15 lakh rupees as a bribe and additional 2.5 lakh rupees for miscellaneous expenses from Vivek.
Vivek filed a complaint with the police when there was no progress on the job for more than a year after he gave money to Prasad.
Prasad was an active member of Shri Ramsene and later came out of it to form his own organization Ramsena of which he was the founder and State President. The group had linked itself to BJP.
Several cases of fraud and cheating are registered against Prasad at Kankanady, Bunder, and Kadri police stations in the city. The initial investigations have also revealed that he had duped more people in similar cases and the city police commissioner has added that the case will be thoroughly investigated.

Indian delegation holds talks with key entities in UAE on IME Economic Corridor
Dubai (PTI): An inter-ministerial Indian delegation on the framework agreement on the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEEC) has visited the UAE for the first time to hold discussions with the key entities there on cooperation for the empowerment and operation of the strategically vital project.
The visit, which took place within three months of signing the Agreement, reflects the importance both governments attach to the IMEEC project, a press statement by the Embassy of India, Abu Dhabi said.
The Corridor will provide effective alternate supply routes generating efficiencies and reducing costs. Both sides agreed to continue discussions for early implementation of the Agreement, it said.
"India Middle East Europe Corridor (IMEEC) takes shape with the 1st visit of an Indian Inter-Ministerial Delegation to the UAE for the India-UAE Intergovernmental Framework Agreement on IMEEC. Amb @sunjaysudhir led the discussions with key UAE entities like @DPWorldUAE, @ADPortsGroup @CUSTOMSUAE," the Indian mission posted on X.
The IMEEC will comprise two separate corridors, the east corridor connecting India to the Gulf and the northern corridor connecting the Gulf to Europe.
The corridor will provide a reliable and cost-effective cross-border ship-to-rail transit network to supplement existing maritime routes. It intends to increase efficiency, reduce costs, secure regional supply chains, increase trade accessibility, enhance economic cooperation, generate jobs and lower greenhouse gas emissions, resulting in a transformative integration of Asia, Europe and the Middle East (West Asia).
The IMEC corridor, which aims at integration of Asia, Europe and the Middle East involves multiple stakeholders and is at an incipient stage, the Ministry of External Affairs said in February this year.
The visit by the Indian delegation to hold meetings under the Framework Agreement between India and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) concerning cooperation for the empowerment and operation of the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEEC) to the UAE took place from May 15 to 17, the statement said.
The Framework Agreement was signed between India and the UAE on February 13 in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President of the UAE Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi.
The Agreement provides for cooperation towards developing the IMEEC and exploring potential joint investment and technical collaboration towards this objective.
The Indian delegation comprised senior officials from the Ministry of Shipping, Ports & Waterways, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Central Board of Excise and Customs and Deendayal Upadhyay Port, Kandla. They visited Khalifa Port, Fujairah Port and Jebel Ali Port where they held detailed discussions with the respective Port authorities for facilitating the movement of goods between India and the UAE and beyond.
They also held meetings with UAE Customs Authorities.
