Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway toll hike put on hold after criticism
Infrastructure The toll charges on the newly built road were set to increase by 22% within a fortnight of the road being opened to the public. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) on Saturday, April 1 decided to hold the decision to raise toll charges on the Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway by 22 per cent. The decision was made amid heavy criticism that toll charges on the expressway were raised within a fortnight of the road opening for traffic. The NHAI had decided to raise the toll charges on the newly opened expressway from Rs 135 to Rs 165 for cars, jeeps, and vans for a single journey from April 1. For a round trip, the charges were increased from Rs 205 to Rs 250. Toll charges for other vehicle categories were also increased with the journey for light commercial vehicles and mini buses increasing from Rs 220 to Rs 270. The amount was increased to Rs 565 for buses and trucks. However, following opposition from motorists about the steep toll charges, the NHAI reversed its decision on Saturday morning, moments after the collection of revised fares had begun. Mysuru MP Pratap Simha confirmed that the toll price hike in the expressway was put on hold. The MP's statement came a day after a video of him justifying the hike in toll price was shared on his social media accounts on Friday. - . . https://t.co/mujHAtcEh9 Pratap Simha (@mepratap) April 1, 2023 NHAI officials had earlier stated that toll prices are revised annually taking inflation into account, and this hike is not exclusive to the Mysuru-Bengaluru expressway but is implemented on other roads as well. However, social media was flooded with complaints from motorists who bemoaned the steep charges on the Bengaluru-Mysuru expressway within two weeks of it being inaugurated. The project, inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 12, aims to reduce travel time between Bengaluru and Mysuru from three hours to approximately 75 minutes. The expressway was built at a cost of Rs 8,408 crore in two phases, with 52 kilometers being greenfield consisting of five bypasses that will reduce traffic congestion in neighboring towns.

Bengaluru residents miffed after FIR over silent march to save Sankey Road trees
Protest Those booked say they were not informed about the FIR and that it only came to light when the police issued a notice on March 17. Ians Bengaluru police have booked 70 residents who participated in a silent march campaigning to save trees and voice their opposition to the construction of a flyover along Sankey road in the heart of the city. The move was condemned by activists and civil society groups in the city. The silent march was held on February 19 following which police booked 70 people who took part in the march. The police case came to light when one of the participants, activist Avijit Michael, who works with the campaigning organisation Jhatkaa, was issued a notice on March 17 accusing him of violations including unlawful assembly, obstruction of public way and wrongful confinement. Denying the police charges, Avijit said that he was part of a peaceful march to save trees along the Sankey Road. It is my constitutionally guaranteed right to peaceful protest in India, the Mother of Democracies and nation of Mahatma Gandhiji, the stalwart of ahimsa and peaceful protest. I do not accept any of the charges laid out against me, as they have no merit, Avijit said. A representative of Jhatkaa pointed to videos taken during the silent march and said that it contradicted the police's claims. The video shows that none of the conditions of the IPC sections that Mr. Michael is charged with are fulfilled. There was no obstruction of public way, no unlawful assembly, nor was anyone wrongfully confined. Michael and the other citizens were peacefully marching along the footpath of Sankey road and raising awareness about the need to save trees, a statement from Jhatkaa read. Others booked by the police for the silent march include Kimsuka Iyer, a management professional and activist from Malleshwaram, and Rajeev Gowda, a former Rajya Sabha MP from the Congress party.

Yediyurappa rules out son contesting from Varuna seat against Siddaramaiah
Karnataka elections 2023 BY Vijayendra has stated that after his father's decision, there is no question of him contesting from Varuna constituency. Yediyurappa and BY Vijayendra Senior BJP leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday ruled out the possibility of his son BY Vijayendra contesting against Congress leader Siddaramaiah in Varuna constituency. Talking to reporters, Yediyurappa said that the high command had proposed his son contest in the Varuna constituency. I have told them not to go forward in this regard. I will also convince the high command, he said.There is no question of Vijayendra contesting from Varuna constituency. Since I am retiring from electoral politics and not contesting from Shikaripura constituency, he will have to contest from there. We will put up a strong candidate in Varuna constituency, he added. Earlier in the week, Yediyurappa had raised eyebrows by refusing to rule out the possibility of Vijayendra contesting against Siddaramaiah in Varuna. Vijayendra previously wanted to contest from Varuna in the 2018 Assembly elections against Siddaramaiah's son Yathindra. He was denied a ticket by the BJP high command at the time. But in a clarification issued on Friday, Yediyurappa said, The party workers of Varuna are pressurizing for his contest, but he will not leave Shikaripura constituency. He will have to contest from there and it is my decision. Vijayendra has stated that after his father's decision, there is no question of him contesting from Varuna constituency. But, the constituency will have a special place in his heart. Sources close to Yediyurappa said that the Lingayat strongman is concerned about Vijayendra's political career. The decision to contest from Shikaripura is considered a safer choice than contesting against Siddaramaiah in Varuna. Siddaramaiah had stated that it is going to be his last contest and he will retire from politics following the upcoming Assembly elections.

Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway toll hiked: Pay Rs 30 more from April 1
As per the directions, a car/ jeep/van will have to pay Rs 165 for a single journey instead of Rs 135 and Rs 250 for return journey. BENGALURU:Motorists using the Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway will have to pay Rs 30 more for a single journey from April 1. On the directions of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has revised the toll rates. NHAI officials say this is part of the annual revision done across the country. As per the directions, a car/ jeep/van will have to pay Rs 165 for a single journey instead of Rs 135 and Rs 250 for the return journey. As per the NHAI order issued on March 27, motorists have to pay the revised rates from April 1 at Kaniminike and Sheshagiri Halli toll plaza for the six-lane Bengaluru-Niddaghatta section. The toll was introduced on March 14 after PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the expressway on March 12.Many motorists and leaders of some political parties have been opposing the high toll rates and lack of service roads since then. Moreover, within a few days of the introduction of the toll, the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) hiked its busfares by including thetoll fee. Toll revision done every new financial year: NHAI The toll rates have been revised all over India and it is a regular revision during the new financial year. Every activity has a calendar that has to be followed. We had to start levying the toll from December 2022. But due to various reasons, it was not done. Now that it has been imposed, people are opposing it, a senior NHAI official told The New Indian Express. Asked why an exemption could not be made on stretches where the toll was introduced just a few days ago, the official bluntly said that the question was not relevant. Dont ask such baseless questions. If people do not want to pay the toll, they can use the service road or other alternative roads. The decision has been taken as per the government policy. If anyone has an objection, they can write to NHAI or the ministry, the official said. The NHAI order says that on return journeys within 24 hours of payment of toll, there will be a 25-per cent discount for all categories of vehicles. There will also be a 33-per cent discount for all vehicles using a monthly pass for 50 single journeys from the date of payment.

Foresters lathi-charge farmers over land row in Karnataka
Tension prevailed after around 50 farmers allegedly threw stones at 40 forest staffers, who resorted to a lathicharge. TUMAKURU: Farmers, claiming their right over forest and gomala land, clashed with forest department personnel at Gangaiahnapalya village in Gubbi taluk on Thursday evening. A farmer and a forest staffer were injured in the incident. Tension prevailed after around 50 farmers allegedly threw stones at 40 forest staffers, who resorted to a lathi-charge. Members of the Karnataka Prantha Raitha Sangha (KPRS) alleged that the forest department staff attacked a farmer, Doddananjaiah, who was admitted to the district general hospital. Devendra, a forest guard from Koratagere, too was hospitalised for injuries in his head, sustained in the melee. On Friday, KPRS members protested outside the deputy commissioners office, demanding action against the forest staff, including RFO Duggaiah. It is said that the trouble started with the forest department digging trenches on forest boundaries, at a time when farmers are taking up sowing activities. The group of farmers was led by KPRS leader Yashwant. The farmers also tried to damage the machines used for digging trenches, alleged the forest staff. After a heated exchange over the rights of farmers over the land that belongs to the forest department, a scuffle broke out, they added. Assistant Conservator of Forests Mahesh Malagatti said the protesters obstructed the forest staff who were working on 52 hectares of land on Survey no. 31 and 34 that are notified as a reserved forest. In the same area, 66 acres of land on Survey no. 196 have been identified as gomala land, on which the farmers are claiming their right and have applied for title deeds under the Bagair Hukum scheme. He said Tahsildar Arati has ordered a joint survey.
Bengaluru woman gangraped by four men in moving car for over five hours
Victim was allegedly smoking with her male friend in a park attached to National Games Village, when she was reportedly abducted in the car by the accused BENGALURU:In a horrifying incident that cast a shadow on the image of Bengaluru being one of the safest cities in the country for women, a 19-year-old woman was allegedly kidnapped and gang-raped by four men in a moving car for five-and-a-half-hours. The incident took place in the Koramangala police station limits on March 25 night. Four have been arrested. The police said the woman, who works with a private company, was smoking with her male friend in a park attached to National Games Village, which has residential complexes that house several judges and top bureaucrats, around 9.30 pm on March 25. Meanwhile, one of the accused, who reportedly knew the victims friend, approached them and objected to them sitting in the park at night and smoking. The victim and her friend told him that it was none of his business. But then a shocking thing happened. The friend told the victim that he needed to go home and left, even as the accused was standing there and making phone calls. In a few minutes, three others came to the park, forcibly dragged the woman into the car and abducted her. Via Domlur, they drove to Attibele on Hosur Road and made a U-turn before the checkpost and left the woman near her house in Ejipura around 3.30 am. While the car was on the move, the accused allegedly raped the woman, DCP (South-East division) CK Baba told reporters. The victim, who managed to contact her mother, reached a hospital with her help and filed a complaint against the four youth the next day. Within eight hours after the case was registered, all the four accused were secured. We are waiting for the medical reports. More details cant be shared as the investigation is still on, the DCP said. He added that the victim was familiar with the faces of the accused, but was not acquainted with them. The accused have beenidentified as Satish, Vijay, Sridhar and Kiran, all residentsof Ejipura and surrounding areas in Bengaluru, and aged 23-24. Two of the accused work as office boys, one is an electrician and another is employed with a BPO. Role of friend ruled out, says officer A senior police officer said the role of her friend who left her while the accused was still at the park in the incident has been ruled out. At the time of the abduction, a few people were still at the park. When her friend told her he had to leave, the woman told him she would manage as there were still people around as it was around 10 pm. The accused took her in a Maruti 800 car, but no one seems to have paid attention to the incident or realised it was an abduction, the officer said. Home Minister Araga Jnanendra was not available for comment. Bluru unsafe under BJP Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala took to Twitter stating Bengaluru is unsafe under BJP rule. Another NIRBHAYA? #Bengaluru is one of the unsafest city under BJP! TIME TO RETHINK. If u cant go out of ur house safely, If u cant go to a park safely, If u cant meet with friends, If sexual assault & gang rape will scar ur soul in public places, Should u not vote out BJP?

Coastal Karnatakaa BJP fort, but Congress may up its tally from 2018 polls
Congress is also blaming hate crimes and moral policing for the regions failure to attract enough investment, resulting in the migration of youth. MANGALURU:In 2018, the BJP almost swept the entire coastal Karnataka garnering 16 of 19 seats. This tally rose to 17 after the 2019 by-election. This time, riding high on the Modi factor and achievements of the double-engine government, the saffron party is trying its best to hold on to its fort even as Congress is trying to breach the bastion by banking on the anti-incumbency factor and corruption charges against the ruling dispensation. Except in one or two segments where JDS has some presence, it appears to be a straight contest between BJP and Congress elsewhere in the region, which has Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada districts. It is too early to tell whether the fledgling AAP and SDPI will have any impact here. Congress is looking to increase its 2019 tally of just two seats, and the party could bag a few more if it fields the right candidates. But already, dissidence is brewing over the selection of candidates in some seats. Congress is, however, confident of winning Bantwal, Bhatkal and Kaup. ALSO READ | Congress picks young guns for battle in BJP turf Dakshina Kannada Veterans like RV Deshpande, B Ramanath Rai and Vinay Kumar Sorake, who are contesting from these seats, have appealed to voters emotions saying it will be their last election. The party is also going all out to win back the Backward Classes, telling them that BJP is misusing them for political gains. In 2018, BJP triumphed because of issues surrounding Paresh Mestas death. But the CBI later filed a B report in the case, much to the partys embarrassment. Congress is also blaming hate crimes and moral policing for the regions failure to attract enough investment, resulting in the migration of youth. But BJP has countered this narrative, blaming Congress minority appeasement politics for the ills plaguing the region. It is turning arrests in alleged terror activities by NIA in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi to its advantage to drive home the message that only the BJP can cleanse the region of anti-national elements. ALSO READ | Congress'10-point manifesto for coastal region in Karnataka Setting up of Shree Narayana Guru Development Corporation and installing his statue at a major junction has helped the party blunt the opposition attack that it is ignoring Narayan Guru or Billavas. BJP workers were upset over the murder of party Yuva Morcha member Praveen Nettaru, but the party appears to have managed to douse the fire. The cabinets recent decision on increasing the quota for Lingayats and Vokkaligas and internal reservation for Dalits will not have much impact here because of their slender population. But one has to see whether scrapping the 4 per cent Muslim quota will have any impact. There is a feeling that allowing Muslims to claim quota in the EWS pool will affect the upper castes in the coastal region more than anywhere else.
