State government’s stand on state’s flag issue should be condemned: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday noted that the state government’s stand on the separate state flag needs to be condemned as the idea was pitched and insisted by many Kannada activists.
Siddaramaiah took to twitter to express his dissent over the government’s move to oppose separate state flag for Karnataka which was proposed to Central government for its approval by Siddaramaiah government when in power.
The former CM also termed Kannada and Culture Minister CT Ravi’s opposition to the separate flag as ‘Wrong on his part’. “The state is not barred by the constitution or any law to have its own state flah. @BJP4Karnataka govt’s stand is against the sentiments of Kannnadigas” Siddaramaiah added in the tweet.
It is wrong on the part of Kannada & Cultural minister @CTRavi_BJP to oppose our state flag. The state is not barred by the constitution or any law to have its own state flag. @BJP4Karnataka govt's stand is against the sentiments of Kannadigas.#Naadadwaja

Expert committee studied the same & designed the flag which was submitted to Central govt for its approval. But now the state govt is opposing the same. This should be condemned.#NaadaDwaja

Man in Belagavi arrested for murdering 15-day-old daughter by feeding poison
Belagavi: In a murder case reported from Ukkada village of the taluk, a 28-year-old man was held by Kakathi Police on charges of poisoning his 15-day-old daughter, apparently on learning that the infant was female.
The arrested man, Bhimaraya Banappa Chippadi, is said to be a resident of Bhootaramanahatti. He was held by Kakathi Police following an investigation into a case registered against him based on a complaint filed by his wife, Sheela Chippadi, who has accused him of murdering their infant, Priyanka.
Police sources have said that Chippadi was unhappy that his wife Sheela had delivered a female child and had been pressurizing her to leave the infant at her paternal home and return alone.
On Tuesday, March 17 afternoon, Chippadi allegedly poisoned his daughter Priyanka when his wife and child were asleep. A primary investigation has revealed that the accused applied the poison to the opening of a bottle and fed it to the infant.
Chippadi reportedly escaped from the spot after poisoning his daughter.
When his wife Sheela woke up, she noticed the infant foaming at the mouth and immediately took the child to the Belagavi Institute of Medical Sciences (BIMS) Hospital, but doctors declared Priyanka dead, sources said. The doctors have reportedly suspected that the infant was fed a pesticide used on cotton crops.
Kakathi Police, who registered a case against Chippadi, probed the matter and tracked him down on Friday, March 20.
Chippadi, who was produced before the court, has been sent to judicial custody and is currently lodged in Hindalga jail.
