Mysuru: Kuvempunagar Police have taken two students, aged 19 and 25, into custody for the possession of lethal weapons. The authorities also seized the two weapons along with a car from the arrested individuals. The detainees have been identified as Samarth (25), a resident of Ramakrishna Nagar D Block, and Utsav (19), residing in Giri Darshini Layout.
Reportedly, the apprehended students, along with their friends Rahul, Manoj, Darshan, and Abhi, were allegedly carrying a weapon in their vehicle with the intention of intimidating another individual named Merdin.

Upon police approach, some of the young individuals managed to flee the scene. However, Samarth and Utsav were successfully apprehended. During the subsequent questioning, the detained individuals admitted to carrying the weapons with the intent of intimidating Merdin.
The Kuvempunagar Police Station has filed a case against the duo, Samarth and Utsav, while also initiating an FIR against seven other individuals involved in the incident.

Belagavi: Speaker U.T. Khader on Friday warned that members who disrupt Assembly proceedings by talking in their seats during debates will be made to sit in the House for an entire day as a disciplinary measure.
The warning came after the Question Hour, when Deputy Leader of the Opposition Arvind Bellad was permitted to initiate a discussion on the development of North Karnataka.
At this point, expelled BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal objected, stating that he had been seeking a debate for the past three days but had not been given an opportunity.

Responding to the objection, Speaker Khader said Bellad had already been granted permission and assured Yatnal that he would be allowed to speak at the next opportunity. He noted that even as a serious discussion was underway, several MLAs were speaking among themselves with their microphones on, disrupting the proceedings.
Expressing displeasure over the conduct of members, Khader likened the situation to football, where players receive red, yellow, or white cards for violations. Similarly, he said, the Assembly issues warning cards to members who disturb the House. If they fail to correct themselves despite repeated warnings, they would be required to remain seated in the Assembly hall for a full day as punishment, he stated.
