YSR Telangana Party chief hears woes of common people
Promising sheep and buffaloes to the downtrodden rather than jobs, Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, however, had provided political jobs to five people in his family, president of the YSR Telangana party Y.S. Sharmila alleged.
On the second day of her ‘padayatra’ in several villages in Chevella constituency, she said English liquor was freely flowing in the State while English medium education was being denied to the poor people. The only way to throw out this ‘anti-people’ government was by blessing her and the YSR Telangana party, she claimed.
Ms. Sharmila walked for 12.9 kms on the second day starting from Nakkalapalli and throughout the day she interacted with people trying to understand what they were seeking from the government and what they were actually getting. She promised them that the welfare rule that people saw when Y.S. Rajashekhar Reddy was the Chief Minister would be brought back if she was voted to power.
“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.
