The city police arrested a man who had sexually harassed a co-passenger on a Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) bus recently.
The arrested has been identified as Madhusudhan Reddy, from Ballari district and residing at Vijayanagar in the city. He works at a private firm.
The victim, a student who is also from Ballari and studying in a college in the city, had gone to her parents’ house for Gowri-Ganesha festival and was returning to the city on an overnight KSRTC bus trip. As the bus approached Peenya-Dasarahalli in the city, the accused, Reddy, who had been allegedly staring at the girl for a long time got up, sexually harassed her and got down from the bus at Peenya and ran away.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
