In a major breakthrough, the Kalaburagi Police have arrested nine persons who were trying to cheat in a police recruitment exam by using a microchip and Bluetooth device here on Sunday.
On receiving a tip-off, the police raided a lodge and arrested nine candidates appearing for the common written exam for the Civil Police Constable recruitment on Sunday through illegal means. All the nine accused tried to take a written exam equipped with Bluetooth and a specially designed electronic device containing a SIM card.
The police have arrested Lingaraj Pujar, Parashuram Hosamani, Maalappa Ankalgi, Peerappa Hosamani, Nagappa Aurad and Rayappa Mallabad of Jewargi taluk and Mahesh Natikar, Rajkumar Natikar and Parashuram from Afzalpur taluk of Kalaburagi district. Along with the electronic devices, the police also recovered ₹24,000 in cash from them.

Away from the memorial of saint-composer Thyagaraja in Thiruvaiyaru, where his 179th aradhana is marked by five days of uninterrupted concerts, unchavritti and rendering of the Pancharatna kritis, a parallel aradhana is under way in Thanjavur. In the narrow Varagappa Iyer Lane off the bustling South Main Street, devotees queue up at a house named after Thyagaraja. It is here that the idols of Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata, Shatrughna and Anjaneya, worshipped by Thyagaraja himself, are preserved, along with a portrait of the saint-composer said to have been drawn by his disciples.
