Hubli: KPCC President D. K. Shivakumar said, “Prime Minister Modi, Chief Minister Bommai has reduced the prices of petrol and diesel after seeing the response of the voters. They have now come to this realization, and if the prices of gas, iron, cement, essential items in daily use and cooking oil are not reduced, then they can expect this same response from the voters in the upcoming elections”, he said. 

Speaking to the media after participating in the public rally in Shiggavi at Hanagal Vidhana Sabha constituency, DKShi said, “We have complete faith in the voters. The government is resorting to picking pockets of the people daily. Women are shedding tears. Farmers are exhausted. Labourers and street vendors are waiting for their compensation. But, none of this had reached the people. I have not propagated any message during the promotion. I asked a few questions to the voters related to the matter. Has compensation reached you? Have you received help from the government, or not? Have there been any changes in your life or not? Has the income of farmers doubled? When asked these questions, they said, no. Then I asked, won’t you respond to this? They said that they have already given their answer”, he said.

Ludhiana (PTI): Six persons have been arrested in connection with the murder of Congress leader Parminder Tiwari, who was hacked to death with an axe on Sunday in Machhiwara here.

Tiwari, the block president of the Congress party from Machhiwara in Ludhiana, was murdered on March 29 while sitting outside his rented quarters near Takhran village

Deputy Commissioner of Police Jaskaranjit Singh Teja stated the case is neither linked to politics nor gang rivalry.

The main accused, Vijay Kumar and Lucky, were apprehended in Jamalpura village in Munger district, Bihar, by a special team dispatched there, police said.

Preliminary investigations suggest that the suspects aimed to illegally occupy a piece of panchayat land in the Machiwara area, but Tiwari opposed their plans. The accused allegedly visited Tiwari at his rented quarters on March 29 and attacked him with an axe, resulting in his immediate death, officials said.

The other four individuals arrested are relatives of the main accused and were aware of the murder plot, the DCP added.

Police have recovered the axe used in the crime, as well as the motorcycle the accused used to flee the scene.
