Akash Vijayvargiya, 34, was garlanded by supporters as he stepped out of prison on bail.

Akash Vijayvargiya – a first-time party lawmaker – had assaulted a civic official with a cricket bat in Madhya Pradesh’s Indore last Wednesday. In a video clip shown on TV channels, the 34-year-old was seen chasing the official with the bat and beating him in the presence of policemen, who did nothing. A video of the dramatic scenes was shared widely on social media.

The official was working as part of a team removing encroachments when he was attacked by Akash Vijayvargiya, 34, and his supporters.

Mr Vijayvargiya had justified himself saying the officials had dragged and verbally abused women occupants of a residential building.

His father Kailash Vijayvargiya, a veteran BJP leader, had downplayed his son’s offence, calling him “kachha khiladi” or a “novice” and insisting that it wasn’t a “big issue”.

Akash Vijayvargiya, who was arrested after the attack, received a grand welcome from his family and supporters as he walked out of a prison on Sunday. Kailash Vijayvargiya, too, was present outside the jail where his son was garlanded by supporters as he stepped out. Supporters even fired shots in the air to celebrate his bail.71 COMMENTS

Mr Vijayvargiya was unapologetic. “I am not guilty or embarrassed about what I did as it was in public interest… I pray to god that I should not be given another opportunity to pick up the bat (I pray to god ki vo dobara ballebazi karne ka avsar na de),” he said after stepping out of prison.

Om Birla will succeed Sumitra Mahajan as Lok Sabha speaker
NEW DELHI: 

The BJP’s surprise pick – Om Birla – is all set to become next Lok Sabha Speaker after his candidature on Tuesday was backed by all NDA allies as also by the YSR Congress Party, the Biju Janata Dal and key opposition parties, including the Congress.

A notice was given to the Lok Sabha Secretariat by the BJP, proposing the name of Om Birla, a two-time MP from Kota-Bundi seat in Rajasthan, for the Speaker’s post and bringing a motion for his election, which will be held on Wednesday.

As per sources, Prime Minister Narendra Modi proposed 57-year-old Birla’s name for the post. The Rajasthan leader is considered to be close to both PM Modi and BJP president Amit Shah.

Om Birla’s surprise nomination is seen by many in the BJP as a message from the top leadership that the party will promote leaders who keep a low-profile and work at the ground-level.

BJD, YSRCP, JDU, Shiv Sena, Akali Dal, National People’s Party, Mizo National Front, Lok Janshakti Party, AIADMK and Apna Dal have given the notice to support Mr Birla’s candidature for the Speaker’s post, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi told reporters.

Later, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said the party and the UPA allies have also decided to support Mr Birla’s candidature as the Speaker.

Mr Chowdhury also said the Congress has already moved a motion supporting the ruling party candidate.

The decision to support Om Birla’s nomination was taken at a meeting of the UPA allies, where the leaders also discussed the opposition strategy during the Parliament session.

Om Birla, who won his first Lok Sabha election in 2014 and was re-elected from Rajasthan’s Kota-Bundi seat. He defeated Congress’s Ramnaraian Meena with a margin of over 2.5 lakh votes in the recently concluded general elections.

He has also been elected to Rajasthan assembly for three consecutive terms in 2003, 2008 and 2013.

Om Birla will succeed eight-term MP Sumitra Mahajan as the Speaker, a post traditionally held by senior MPs.

However, this will not be for the first time a relative newcomer will hold the position. In 1996, TDP leader G M C Balayogi was also a two-time MP when he was elected as the Lok Sabha Speaker and after his death in a helicopter crash in 2002, Shiv Sena leader and first-time MP Manohar Joshi was appointed to the position.

A Special Investigation Team is probing the IMA case.
BENGALURU: 

Special Investigation Team (SIT) on Monday said that a Bengaluru Development Authority engineer was taken into custody and important documents were seized from his possession in connection with the alleged IMA Jewels financial fraud case.

The head of probe team said they searched three Frontline Pharma shops owned by the IMA Jewels in Bengaluru and seized pharmacy and electronic items worth Rs. 70 lakh along with Rs. 4.4 lakh cash.

“The SIT searched three Frontline Pharma shops owned by IMA and seized pharmacy and electronic items worth Rs. 70 lakh along with Rs. 4.4 lakh cash. A Bengaluru Development Authority engineer was taken into custody and important documents were recovered from him,” he said.

IMA has allegedly cheated a large number of investors, mainly Muslims, after promising them impressive return on their deposits.

IMA founder Mansoor Khan, who is on the run, released a video urging police to arrange his return to India so that he could join the probe.

He disappeared earlier this month after sending an audio clip to some investors threatening to commit suicide due to what he alleged was “harassment” by some politicians and goons.

The SIT had earlier conducted a raid at his office and seized jewellery worth Rs. 20 crore. It had arrested the firm’s auditor Iqbal Khan and seven directors of different entities linked to Khan.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had also issued summons to the IMA founder directing him to appear before the agency on June 24, but he failed to appear as he is believed to be in a foreign country.

Over 25,000 complaints have been filed against the company.

Trouble For Karnataka Congress, 2 Lawmakers Quit, BJP Keeps Close Watch

July 2, 2019 by Nasheman

Karnataka Congress: Anand Singh resigned first, and hours later Ramesh Jarkiholi gave his resignation to the Speaker

Anand Singh is the legislator from Karnataka’s Vijayanagar.
BENGALURU: 

Two Congress legislators in Karnataka put in their papers today, in fresh trouble for the ruling Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) coalition in the state. Anand Singh resigned first, and hours later Ramesh Jarkiholi gave his resignation to the Speaker.

While the Congress has yet to confirm his resignation, Mr Singh says that he has quit and went to meet the Governor. A senior Congress leader termed his exit “shocking”.

The Congress and the JD(S) are wary of a potential revival of what is referred to as “Operation Lotus”. The term was first used in 2008, when the BJP was accused of inciting several opposition legislators to defect to ensure the stability of its government headed by BS Yeddyurappa.

“I have submitted by resignation as the people of my constituency are agitated over the government’s approval to lease out government land to the Jindals,” Anand Singh told reporters. The state assembly speaker’s office confirmed receiving the legislator’s letter on Monday afternoon.

With two lawmakers gone from the Congress, the party will be down to 77 members in the assembly. The JDS-Congress alliance has 116 lawmakers in the 224-member Karnataka assembly where the majority mark is 113. The BJP has 105, BSP has one and there is one independent.

Earlier this year, Anand Singh was hospitalised with injuries after an alleged fight with a colleague. (File)

Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy is currently in the US on a private visit. “I’m at Kalabhairaveshwara temple foundation laying ceremony (in New Jersey). I’m watching TV channels. Destabilising government continues to be a daydream of BJP,” Mr Kumaraswamy tweeted.

The BJP in Karnataka is keeping a close watch. “Even I have heard about his (Anand Singh’s) resignation through media. We don’t want to destabilise the government… If the government falls on own its own, we will explore the possibilities of forming the new government but there is no question of fresh elections,” Karnataka BJP chief and former chief minister BS Yeddyurappa said.

“Anand Singh resignation is shocking to me… I spoke to the Chief Minister. There is no problem in the coalition government,” senior Karnataka Congress leader and minister DK Shivakumar said.

Anand Singh, the legislator from Vijayanagar, was hospitalised earlier this year after he was allegedly thrashed and abused by another lawmaker during their stay at a resort on the outskirts of Bengaluru where Congress legislators had been taken for safe-keeping.

It was said that Mr Singh had been involved in dissident activity but that he was convinced to stay with the party at that time.

The Congress has been fighting dissidence since the beginning of the year, with several Congress legislators openly critical of the party and staying away from legislature party meets that had been called.

Get ready to pay more if caught for any traffic violation from today in Bangalore as the Karnataka state government has issued a notification based on which the Karnataka state transport department has hiked traffic fines.According to the special gazette,contrary to fixing fines depending on vehicle categories.
For example,till now Rs-300 was flat fine for overspeeding of two wheeler,Four wheeler was Rs-500 now the motorist will asked to pay Rs.1000,and while driving if the owner is found seated in the back and the driver driving the vehicle in over speed then additional Rs.500 rupees will be added to fine totally they need to pay Rs.1500 for the over speeding as owner will also be equally responsible for this as when the owner is also in the vehicle the driver drives in over speed means the owner has not given instruction and educated the driver to drive slow for the safety of him and others,Like this till now Rs-100 was the flat fine for using mobile phones while driving or riding,now Rs 1,000 will be the first penalty of such an offence while offenders have to pay Rs 2,000 for subsequent violations.Similarly, driving without vehicular insurance will now attract a fine of Rs 1,000 which was previously Rs 500, while parking violation was Rs 100 but now it will cost users Rs 1,000 for the first offence and Rs 2,000 for future offences.
Using a mobile phone while driving will attract a fine of Rs 1,000 for the first offence and Rs 2,000 subsequently (earlier it was Rs 300 to Rs 500), while the fine for driving a vehicle without insurance has been increased to Rs 1,000 from Rs 500. At the same time, the parking violation will attract a fine of Rs 1,000 henceforth.
The notification,signed by M.Sathyavathi under Secreatery to the government (transport department),says that the penalties have been revised under the purview of motor vehicles Act of 1988
The revised fines have come into effect immediately after the gazette notification.
According to the notification, exceeding speed limit will earn the driver a ticket of Rs 1,000 while carrying goods with load projection on either side can get you fined of Rs 2,000. 
The revised fines have come into effect immediately after the gazette notification :
P.Harishekaran,Additonal CP Traffic,Said last year BTP has sent a proposal to enhance the traffic fine government has taken it very seriously and enhanced the fine for various violations to prevent accident based on the report the Government of karnataka state has issued a new notification on Thursday as on 27th June 2019.In which there are four traffic offences fee the fine have been enhanced from 100 rupees to 1000 rupees.The four offences are,Over speeding,Using Mobile phone or any other electronic gadgets while on driving,Uninsured vehicles and wrong parking these are the four important matter in which the government has issued a special notification to enhance the fine amount.The objective of the state the objective of the government not collecting fine from the public but to reduce accidents and to increase safety and security in metropolitan city like in Bengaluru.It is all our image is there Bengaluru is internationally as very known city where a lot of accidents taking place therefore the government is very serious about it we have submitted the report a year back government has kind enough to consider the all the reports which we have submitted from the police department and Promoglated the orders yesterday enhancing amount from 100 ruppes to 1000 rupees.when asked about the increasing cameras in the city.Harishekaran said right now in Bengaluru City we have 1000 cameras are there there are three types of cameras among the 1000.PTZ cameras,RLVD cameras as Red light violations detection cameras,and Number plate recognition cameras,So in near future we are going to purchase 6000-7000 cameras altogether in another 1 year 1000 cameras to 10,000 cameras is going to be in Bengaluru city it will help the traffic department,law and order department and also crime department.When asked about the government has banned Ola and Uber pooling or sharing while has been stepped in for this Harishekaran said this is the policy matter where the government authority has to react the transport department it not falls under my jurisdictions will you conduct checking regarding this for this he said If they send the report to me for my opinion definitely I will offer my opinion.When asked about how are you going to check the speed as usual over speed is also one of the major offence for this Harishekaran said to check over speeding vehicles we have fifteen special vehicles known as Interceptor vehicles with gadgets to collect the speed of the vehicles so on which we can collect the amount on the based of the evidence based fine collection.Our aerials our aim our objective is not disturbing or humiliating any public.I want to repeat again so it is all evidence based we have lit of electronic gadgets with us and of course I can react to your question in Bengaluru city in CBD as Central Business District area this issue doesn’t arise normally because the speed limit in the hardcore bengaluru city the overspeeding is not a possibilities are very megere and I personally analysed that after 12 o clock I think so after midnight 12 o clock to 6 o clock we have to watch the over speeding within the city there is a possibility.But apart from that the peripheral roads the ring roads and international airport road and all major roads which are seven roads which connects to the bengaluru city there is a possibility of over speeding where we are going to concentrate on the issue simply to reduce the accidents and save the lives.is in major step taken on wheeling by the traffic department,Harishekaran said after assuming charge as a Commissioner  Traffic in Bengaluru city this is one of my very very important project because wheeling it is challenging the police it is not only offence it is challenging the police therefore in law and order crime we used to parade all the rowdies like that I have instructed my officers to call all these wheelie fellows or wonkers last 3 years 4 years and educate them properly because it is not only to endanger life of the wheeler and also the performer or the others it is the open challenge to the police department because there is a department existing here to protect the people this guys are challenging so for this we have to take stringent action against them.The revision in fines is also expected to make drivers more alert and to be aware of the importance of following traffic rules for his/her own safety as well as for the others on the road,When asked about the Bounce bike taxis menace in the city as they park wherever they want in Hapzard manner obstructing the traffic on footpath middle of the road on flyovers too in bus stop and other places he said we have received many complaints from public on various social media platform and the policy is with the government at any

Dino Morea And DJ Aqeel Summoned In Sterling Biotech Bank Fraud Case

July 1, 2019 by Nasheman

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) said it has got evidence that the two were paid some money by the Gujarat-based pharmaceutical group in the past.

Dino Morea And DJ Aqeel Summoned In Sterling Biotech Bank Fraud Case

ED said it has evidence that Dino Morea was paid money by the pharmaceutical group.
NEW DELHI: 

The Enforcement Directorate has summoned Bollywood actor Dino Morea and DJ Aqeel for questioning in the Sterling Biotech alleged bank fraud and money laundering probe case, officials said on Monday.

The actor and the popular disc jockey (DJ) have been asked to depose before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as it has got evidence that the two were paid some money by the Gujarat-based pharmaceutical group in the past, they said.

They will be questioned about the circumstances of these payments made out of the proceeds of crime identified in the case and their statements will be recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the officials said.

While Dino Morea, also a model, has worked in a number of Hindi films, Aqeel is a popular DJ.

The two could not be immediately contacted for reaction.

The agency last week had made one of its largest PMLA attachments and frozen assets worth 9,778 crore of the group in India and abroad.

The alleged Rs. 8,100 crore bank loan fraud is being alleged to have been perpetrated by the Vadodara-based pharma firm and its main promoters Nitin Sandesara, Chetan Sandesara and Dipti Sandesara, all of whom are absconding.

The Sandesaras are also under probe for their alleged nexus with some high-profile politicians by the ED as also by the CBI and the Income Tax Department under criminal sections that deal with corruption and tax evasion respectively.
