Though Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa himself has appealed to seers of various mutts to desist from campaigning for his continuation as Chief Minister, various seers have decided to organise a convention in Bengaluru on Sunday. Seers claimed that the convention was being held not to back any particular individual, but to take stock of various developments and to take a stand. They also clarified that the convention was not confined to only Lingayat mutts and that seers from across communities would participate in the event.“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.
