We sought blanket, Centre gave merely handkerchief: Prakash Raj slams Centre on interim flood relief
Bengaluru: Actor turned politician, Prakash Raj on Sunday slammed Modi led Central Government over the announcement of Rs. 1200 crore interim flood relief aid to the state added that it is merely a ‘handkerchief’ when the state asked for ‘Blanket’.
Taking to twitter, Prakash Raj on Sunday added that Rs. 1200 crore flood relief aid was not sufficient for the state as it has estimated the total damage and loss to be worth Rs. 38000 crore.
The Centre earlier last week released Rs. 1200 crore aid for Karnataka as interim funds for flood relief which triggered mixed reaction in political circle and social media platforms. Several leaders and activists slammed the Centre for ignoring the state’s needs.

Man arrested with Rs 2.54-crore heroin in Mumbai
Mumbai (PTI): Police have arrested a man and seized over 500 grams of heroin worth Rs 2.54 crore in the illicit market from him in Mumbai, officials said on Friday.
The police's Anti-Narcotics Cell (ANC) made the drug seizure in Santacruz in the western suburbs. The operation was conducted by the Kandivali unit of the ANC on Thursday as part of a special crackdown against drug trafficking in the area, they said.
Acting on specific inputs, an ANC team conducted a raid in Santacruz (East) and intercepted a man. During a search, the team recovered 508 grams of high-grade heroin from his possession, an official said.
The seized contraband, a highly addictive, opioid drug derived from morphine, is estimated to be worth Rs 2.54 crore in the international market, he informed.
Following the seizure, a case was registered against the man under relevant sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985, and he was formally placed under arrest in the early hours of Friday.
The police are currently investigating the source of the drug and trying to identify the intended recipients of the consignment, he said.
