Rules will be formed for transfer of police personnel: Home Minister G. Parameshwara
Bengaluru: Karnataka Home Minister announced that proper rules will be formulated for transfer of police constable at inter-district level. He was addressing the reporters in the city on Monday.
He pointed out that till now there were no rules on the transfer of constables. “This time, transfers involving husband and wife will be done. I have discussed this matter with the Director General of Police. The issue of inter-district transfers will be resolved soon."
Responding to allegations from the BJP that the government is showing partiality in cases, particularly in the illegal activities involving the Valmiki Corporation compared to actor Darshan's case, Parameshwara asserted that the government is not protecting any wrongdoers. "Action will be taken according to the law, regardless of whether the culprits are officers or political figures," he said.

He clarified that the CBI is investigating the fraud involving bank officials, while the SIT is probing the fraud within the department. Addressing the BJP's protests and threats to besiege the Chief Minister's house, he remarked, "Let them protest, who says no? It is natural for accusations to be made against ministers and MLAs during investigations. Action will be taken based on the investigation report."
Regarding the impact of the three new criminal laws enacted in the country, Parameshwara noted that it is too early to assess their effects. "These new laws will apply to cases registered from today. We will have to see how they are addressed in court once cases are registered," he added.

Darshan case: Photo of child in prisoner's dress on social media; child rights body seeks action
Bengaluru, Jul 3: Taking a strong view of a photo of a child on a social media platform dressed like a jail inmate with a prisoner number 6106 -- suggesting Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, Karnataka State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (KSCPCR) on Wednesday directed the cyber crime police to take action in the matter.
Darshan, his friend Pavithra Gowda and 15 others are currently in the Central jail at Parappana Agrahara here in connection with the Renukaswamy murder case.
The photo of the baby, with hand-written slip ‘Jai D. Boss’ pasted next to it -- an apparent reference to Darshan -- was shared by an Instagram user, who said it is "trending".
In a letter to the Cyber Crime Division of the Criminal Investigation Department, the KSCPCR Chairperson K Naganna Gowda said action should be taken against those responsible for sharing the photographs.
“We don’t even call children as accused or criminals even when they do something wrong unknowingly. We call them ‘children involved in legal fight’. Such effects should not befall on children,” Gowda said in his letter.
“Instead of providing a good atmosphere for children we should not thrust our love or blind love for someone on them,” he said.
