FIR filed over hacking of Vartha Bharati’s email ID, YouTube Channel
Bengaluru, Nov 14: An FIR has been lodged at the Bengaluru Cyber Crime Police Station following a hacking incident involving the email and YouTube channel of the media outlet Vartha Bharati. The FIR was registered on Thursday based on a complaint from Vartha Bharati.
The hacking was discovered on Thursday morning, revealing that cybercriminals had gained unauthorized access to the official email and subsequently the YouTube channel, youtube.com/varthabharatinews. As a result, Vartha Bharati was unable to broadcast any programs on the platform, raising concerns that the hackers could potentially misuse the channel to disseminate anti-social messages or content. In its complaint, Vartha Bharati requested action to secure the release of the hacked accounts and prevent any misuse.
By Thursday afternoon, YouTube had restored Vartha Bharati's channel to a secondary official email account, allowing the organization to resume its broadcasts. However, the primary hacked email remains inaccessible, and investigations are ongoing to resolve the issue.

Marathi-speaking people in Belagavi supressed, says Aaditya Thackeray; demands UT status
Pune, Dec 9: Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Monday alleged that injustice was being meted out to Marathi-speaking people in Belagavi in Karnataka, demanding that the region be declared a Union Territory.
Talking to reporters in Mumbai, Thackeray said while celebrations are underway over the formation of the new government in Maharashtra, the situation was deteriorating in Belagavi in the neighbouring state.
As the winter session of the Karnataka assembly begins on Monday, members of the Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti are opposing it. The outfit organised a congregation in Belagavi, but the Karnataka government allegedly prohibited the gathering and banned leaders from Maharashtra from entering the state.
"Marathi-speaking people in Belagavi are being suppressed. Since yesterday, the situation has been deteriorating in the region. Our party workers are being detained. The previous 'unconstitutional' chief minister had promised that they would give extra funds to the Marathi-speaking people living in the disputed territory. What happened to that assurance?" the MLA asked.
He questioned whether the BJP-led government in the Centre was willing to declare Belgavi as a Union Territory.
"Our demand was and is that Belagavi should be declared a Union Territory," he added.
