Mahatma Gandhi delivered speech for just ten minutes, and donations poured in: Pro. Venkatasubbiah
Bengaluru: Mahatma Gandhi had delivered a speech for only ten minutes, that too in Hindi language and in front of Kannada people who did not know Hindi. All of them were villagers. They were economically weaker and poor. Most of them were women. However, people who understood Gandhi's speech gave donations generously and participated in India's freedom struggle. Besides, the people of Madhugiri in Tumkur had become kind-hearted in the Mahatma’s eyes; stated Kannada writer Prof. G Venkatasubbiah.
The 105-year-old Professor Venkatasubbaiah, the father of Kannada grammar, was speaking through video call during the celebration of the Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary, organized by the Sharada Stree Samaj of Chamarajpet in association with the Department of Information and Public Relations.
Sharada Stree Samaj President Umesh Rudra, DP. Muralidhar, Deputy Director, Department of Information and Public Relations, Bengaluru District; BV Chetan Kumar, and others were present.

'Must stop': SC censures lawyers for filing 'bulky' appeals
New Delhi (PTI): The Supreme Court on Thursday deprecated lawyers for filing "bulky" appeals which run into a number of pages and annexing unnecessary documents.
A bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Ujjal Bhuyan said, "What is this tendency? In synopsis, case law is cited, grounds are there in synopsis. And there is a very bulky compilation. Every matter we see now in Supreme Court, in first part of synopsis people cite quotations then the grounds of appeal are reproduced in synopsis. This must stop."
The bench went on, "What kind of bulky compilation is being thrown at us? The bulk of the compilation depends upon the monetary capacity of the litigant and capacity to engage senior advocate. This is happening everyday. We have forgotten the basic rule that pleadings should not contain law."
The top court expressed "shock" on finding in such compilations synopses of cases, grounds of challenge aside from case laws.
"We deprecate this tendency. A copy of this order shall we forwarded to the Supreme Court advocates on-record association," it added.
