Govt to give more funds for ‘Save Soil’ movement by Sadhguru: CM Bommai
Bengaluru: Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said on Saturday that the government has already released Rs 100 crore for the ‘Save Soil’ movement launched by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev.
Addressing the gathering during the inauguration of the ‘Naga Mantapa’ built by the Isha Yoga Center near the Jalari Narasimhaswamy Hill, Chikkaballapur district, Bommai said that the government would release more funds for the global movement, reports Deccan Herald.
Bommai said, “With the awareness that saving the soil leads to saving human beings, Sadhguru launched the campaign. He has also aimed at doubling the income of the Chikkaballapur farmers,” and added that the initiatives of Sadhguru would be expanded to all over Karnataka.
Health Minister Dr K Sudhakar, who also spoke on the occasion, said, “Sadhguru started the center in Chikkaballapur as requested by me, within a short time. Farmers should visit the center and take up initiatives that are implemented at the center.”
Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev said that there are also plans to open Sanskrit and Yoga schools as well as a leadership academy. “The Isha Foundation will also constitute a Farmer Producer Organization to help increase the income of the farmers. The farmers’ income has increased by 800 per cent, with the formation of similar other organizations,” he added.
The Sadhguru, it is said, launched the ‘Save Soil’ movement to get the people from across the world to overcome the soil crisis by working together for soil health. It also urges leaders of all nations to frame policies to help increase organic content in cultivable soil.
A 112-foot tall statue of Adiyogi was installed in just about four months, said Sadhguru.

Hearing for HD Revanna's anticipatory bail adjourned to 2:45 PM today
Bengaluru: The Special Court of People's Representatives has deferred the hearing of the anticipatory bail application filed by former Minister HD Revanna in connection with a woman's kidnapping case.
Advocate BN Jagadish, representing the SIT (Special Investigation Team), requested time to present arguments and file objections against Revanna's anticipatory bail. An accused has already been apprehended in relation to the kidnapping case, and the SIT aims to gather pertinent evidence from this individual. Consequently, they sought an extension to prepare their objection.
However, Murthy Naik, Revanna's advocate, opposed the request for additional time, citing a notice issued under IPC Section 41. He further argued that Revanna must attend the hearing by 5:30 PM today and seeked attention towards the absence of specific allegations directly implicating Revanna in the kidnapping within the FIR.
Following deliberation, the court instructed the SIT to submit their objection and postponed the hearing until 2:45 PM.
