Denizens join the chorus in virtual mode from their homes
The daily recital of the national anthem in the Punganur municipality completed three years on the 75th Independence Day on Sunday as a 150-foot-long national flag was paraded with great enthusiasm as part of the celebrations. The municipality with a population of 60,000 shot to fame on August 15, 2018, with the municipal authorities launching the novel programme of recital of the national anthem everyday.“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
The High Court of Karnataka on Monday declined to interfere, at present, in the investigation against a Bharatiya Janata Party worker, who is among the accused persons facing charges of circulating obscene clips, related to “morphed” images and videos clips related to Prajwal Revanna, former Hassan MP, in public domain through pen drives and other modes.
