Union Minister Karandlaje demands SIT probe into sting operations in Karnataka

Digital Desk | Mysuru (Karnataka), Oct 19 (IANS) Union Minister of State for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and Labour & Employment, Shobha Karandlaje, on Monday alleged that the Karnataka government was resorting to blackmail to retain power and demanded an immediate Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe into the alleged sting operations targeting political leaders. Speaking to reporters in Mysuru, she alleged that blackmail was being used within the ruling party and the government to manage political affairs and secure positions of power. She claimed that sting operations were being conducted and CDs containing alleged compromising material were being used to threaten certain individuals. They are running the administration by blackmailing people within their own party and government. There is information that former Chief Minister and Congress Working Committee (CWC) member Siddaramaiah was forced to step down from the Chief Ministers post using these sting operations, she alleged. Karandlaje termed the alleged practice a black mark on the state, accusing those involved of resorting to unethical means to gain and retain power. She said the developments had attracted attention outside Karnataka, with people in other states questioning what was happening in the state. This will not bring honour to anyone. Such practices must come to an end, she said. The Union Minister demanded that the state government immediately order an SIT investigation into the alleged sting operations and ensure stringent punishment for those found responsible. I am requesting the Chief Minister in this regard. People are pointing fingers at you, she alleged, urging the state government to take immediate action. Karandlaje's remarks come amid the ongoing political controversy surrounding alleged sting operations and claims of the use of compromising material to influence political developments within the ruling party. Earlier in the day, she participated in a programme at the Mysuru Palace premises, where she arranged breakfast for the families of mahouts and kavadis accompanying the Dasara elephants. It can be noted that the sting operation row has created a stir in the state politics. Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Steel H.D. Kumaraswamy on Saturday led a padyatra with hundreds of JD(S) workers to the office of Director General and Inspector General of Police M.A. Saleem in Bengaluru, demanding swift action and the arrest of those behind the ongoing sting operation controversy. BJP Karnataka President and MLA B.Y. Vijayendra has urged Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar and Deputy Chief Minister G. Parameshwara to take the sting operation case seriously, conduct a comprehensive investigation and take it to its logical conclusion. Meanwhile, Karnataka Police, investigating the sting operation controversy and the uploading of a video allegedly related to Siddaramaiah, have written to YouTube seeking technical details, including the IP address from which the video was uploaded and information about the person who uploaded it, officials said on last Saturday.

Karnataka govt to complete recruitment process for 17,000 teachers by December: Minister Bangarappa

Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 14 (IANS) The Karnataka government has announced that the recruitment process for 17,000 teacher posts will be completed by December, State Minister for School Education and Literacy Madhu Bangarappa said on Wednesday. Addressing the media in Bengaluru, the Minister added that the state government had already completed the recruitment of 13,500 teachers, a process that had remained pending under the previous Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, after pursuing the matter in the Supreme Court. In addition, the state government has granted approval for the recruitment of 6,000 teachers in aided schools. The recruitment process for these posts is expected to be completed by December or January, he said. Bangarappa added that the recruitment drive would help address the shortage of teachers in the state and improve the quality of education by ensuring better learning opportunities for children. The state government has been taking steps to fill vacant teaching positions and strengthen the education system in Karnataka, he said. Later, speaking after inaugurating the Children's Dasara programme at Kalamandira in Mysuru on Wednesday, organised as part of the Nada Habba Mysuru Dasara Mahotsav-2026, Minister Bangarappa added that when it comes to God and children, I will always give priority to children. Children should be regarded as being in the place of God. They are the beacon of hope who can lead the country in the future. Around 6,500 children are participating in various cultural programmes as part of the Dasara celebrations. Even before taking the stage, the children enthusiastically participated in rangoli and painting competitions. Through their paintings, they expressed the Nada Habba Dasara from their own unique perspectives. Recognising and honouring children's talents is the responsibility of all of us, the Minister said. As Education Minister, I have been working sincerely for the welfare of children. Around 1.16 crore children in the state come under the purview of my department. It is my privilege to be involved in shaping the educational future of such a large number of children. Providing quality education to children is one of the key priorities of our (Congress) government, he added. Significant changes are being introduced in the state's education sector through Karnataka Public Schools (KPS). Steps are being taken to establish 1,250 KPS schools in the first phase. Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had taken a keen interest in establishing 1,000 KPS schools during his tenure. The current Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar has directed officials to take steps to establish an additional 1,000 KPS schools. With these initiatives, around 2,500 KPS schools are expected to come up across the state, Bangarappa said. The KPS schools will provide quality education and essential facilities to compete with private schools. Children will have the opportunity to study under one roof, from pre-primary to pre-university (PUC) level. The state government will also provide free school bus facilities to ensure that education is easily accessible to children, the Minister added.

Ktaka: BJP MLA meets Siddaramaiah amid sting operation row

Digital Desk | Mysuru, Oct 14 (IANS) Amid the sting operation controversy and former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah obtaining a court stay against the dissemination of allegedly defamatory content about him, prominent BJP MLA and former minister Ramesh Jarkiholi met him at his residence in Mysuru and held a private discussion on Wednesday. The meeting has assumed significance as Congress leaders have alleged that those behind the sting operation involving Ramesh Jarkiholi, which led to the circulation of his private video and compelled him to resign from his ministerial post in the previous BJP government, are also behind the sting operation targeting Siddaramaiah. Speaking to the media after meeting Siddaramaiah, Jarkiholi said the former Chief Minister should not have obtained a stay in connection with the sting operation controversy and should instead have fought the issue. I will not speak about the sting operation. I had come to meet Siddaramaiah to discuss other matters. Irrespective of which party he belongs to, he is our leader, Jarkiholi said. Jarkiholi visited Siddaramaiah's residence in T.K. Layout in Mysuru and held discussions with him for some time. Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah declined to comment on the sting operation controversy when reporters sought his reaction in Mysuru. Questioning what more he could say on the issue, he said he had obtained a court stay and would not comment further. Asked about Jarkiholi's visit, Siddaramaiah said the BJP MLA had come to enquire about his well-being. He came to enquire about my well-being. Ramesh came, had lunch and left, Siddaramaiah said. Former minister and Congress MLA K.N. Rajanna on Tuesday said that those behind the controversial CD involving former Karnataka Minister and BJP leader Ramesh Jarkiholi were also responsible for the video allegedly targeting former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. Rajanna's remarks came after Siddaramaiah, a Congress Working Committee member, approached a Bengaluru court seeking an injunction against the circulation and broadcast of allegedly defamatory audio and video clips linked to a reported sting operation. Speaking to the media in Bengaluru, Rajanna, a close associate of Siddaramaiah, said, You tell us who was behind Ramesh Jarkiholi's CD? Those who got his CD done have got Siddaramaiah's as well. The controversy has revived political speculation over the alleged involvement of Shivakumar in the 2021 release of a purported CD, involving Jarkiholi, who resigned as a minister in the then-BJP government following the controversy. However, Rajanna's remarks did not establish any evidence of Shivakumar's involvement in the current episode. Rajanna also claimed that an attempt had been made to conduct a sting operation against him when he was a minister in the previous Siddaramaiah-led cabinet. Such an attempt was made against me as well. They tried to carry out a sting operation against me. Since it was a government residence, I assumed that CCTV cameras would have been installed for security. However, I later came to know that no CCTV cameras had been installed, he said. This development occurred amid reported differences between Rajanna and Shivakumar in 2025. Rajanna had stated that he was ready to become Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) President, the post held by Shivakumar then. He had also demanded that a Dalit be made the Chief Minister in the event of a change in state leadership of Siddaramaiah.
