Karnataka: ED raids Minister Jarkiholis residences, associates properties over alleged overseas investments (LD)

Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Sep 9 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials stated that search operations were conducted at the residences of Karnataka Minister Satish Jarkiholi and those of his close associates under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), 1999. Officials are examining alleged illegal investments and financial transactions carried out abroad. The ED on Wednesday conducted searches at more than 15 locations across Bengaluru, Belagavi and Goa in connection with the investigation. The searches included Satish Jarkiholis private residence in Dollars Colony, Bengaluru, his residence in Belagavi and a government-allotted residence in Bengaluru. According to preliminary information, searches were conducted at five locations in Bengaluru, five locations in Belagavi and three locations in Gokak town in Belagavi district. According to officials, a team of more than 25 ED officers arrived in around 18 vehicles and began the searches at around 7 a.m. The premises were secured with the assistance of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel. The ED team also searched a flat associated with Jarkiholi in Bengaluru and properties linked to his daughter and MP Priyanka Jarkiholi. ED officials are questioning staff members at Minister Satish Jarkiholis government residence in his presence. Officials said the search was initiated after they learned that Jarkiholi was at the residence preparing to attend the Cabinet meeting scheduled for today. Sources said Satish Jarkiholi does not frequently use his private residence in Bengaluru. During the searches, ED officials reportedly took the housekeeper from Dollar's Colony private residence locality along with them for questioning. The searches are part of a FEMA investigation into alleged overseas investments and financial transactions in violation of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines. The ED is reportedly examining whether funds were transferred or investments were made in foreign countries, including South Africa and Uganda, and whether such transactions violated FEMA provisions. Officials are also examining documents relating to foreign investments, fund transfers, properties and other financial transactions. Apart from Satish Jarkiholis properties, ED officials also conducted searches at the premises of three of his close associates. The residence of Dr. Girish Sonwalkar, a doctor and reportedly a close associate of the minister, in the Laxmi Tech area of Belagavi city was searched by the officials. Searches were also conducted at the residences of Raju Dharagashetti and Vitthal Parasannavar, two other associates of Jarkiholi, in Gokak. According to sources, the ED conducted searches at around five locations in Belagavi district as part of the operation. The ED is reportedly scrutinising financial records to determine whether there were any violations of FEMA provisions in connection with overseas investments and fund transfers. Sources said Y. Manjunath, a senior Excise Department official and relative of Satish Jarkiholi, had also come under the agencys scanner in connection with alleged irregularities in the Excise Department. Manjunath, who is the Additional Commissioner of Excise for the Belagavi Zone, is reportedly the ministers brother-in-law. The ED had earlier conducted searches at Manjunaths residence and other premises in June. Searches were also carried out at locations in Bengaluru, Belagavi, Mysuru and Athani. Officials had reportedly recovered a diary during an earlier search and gathered details relating to financial transactions. Manjunath is also understood to have properties in Goa. Sources further claimed that investments in Africa were made in the name of Manjunaths wife several years ago. The agency is examining the nature and source of such investments as part of its investigation. Rahul Jarkiholi, son of Satish Jarkiholi, is also reportedly a partner in a business entity linked to the investigation. The ED is examining the financial dealings and business links of persons associated with the case. The latest ED searches have also acquired a political dimension, coming at a time when the Karnataka government headed by Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar is completing 100 days in office. Satish Jarkiholi, a senior Congress leader from Belagavi, has in recent months figured prominently in discussions within the party, with sections of political circles projecting him as a potential future Chief Ministerial contender. There has also been speculation in some quarters about the possibility of a Dalit Chief Minister. The timing of the ED searches is therefore likely to trigger political reactions, with Opposition parties expected to question the alleged Excise Department irregularities and the financial dealings under investigation. However, the ED searches and investigation do not by themselves establish wrongdoing by Satish Jarkiholi or any of the individuals whose premises were searched. The agencys findings and any subsequent legal proceedings will determine the nature of the alleged violations. The searches were continuing on Wednesday, and further details are awaited from the ED.

Karnataka cuts Cauvery water release to Tamil Nadu by 57 pc amid rainfall dip

Digital Desk | Chennai, Sep 8 (IANS) The quantity of Cauvery water being released to Tamil Nadu from Karnataka's Krishnaraja Sagar and Kabini reservoirs has been reduced sharply to 5,200 cubic feet per second following a decline in rainfall and inflows across the upper catchment areas. The combined discharge had stood at 11,983 cusecs the previous day. It has now fallen by 6,783 cusecs, representing a reduction of nearly 57 per cent within a day. The decline is significant for Tamil Nadu, which closely monitors releases from Karnataka's Cauvery basin reservoirs. The water flowing downstream contributes to the storage at the Mettur Dam and supports irrigation in the Cauvery delta, where farmers rely on timely supplies for standing crops and seasonal cultivation. Of the total quantity released towards Tamil Nadu, 4,800 cusecs were being discharged from the Krishnaraja Sagar reservoir, commonly known as KRS. The remaining 1,200 cusecs were being released from the Kabini reservoir. KRS is situated at Srirangapatna in Karnataka's Mandya district. Its catchment area includes Kodagu district and parts of Wayanad in Kerala. Rain has completely stopped in Kodagu, leading to a steady reduction in the volume of water entering the reservoir. By Monday morning, the water level at KRS stood at 106.84 feet against its full reservoir level of 124.80 feet. The inflow was recorded at 2,511 cusecs, while outflow remained higher at 4,800 cusecs. As discharge exceeded the inflow, the reservoir's stored water continued to decline. A similar situation was reported at the Kabini reservoir in Mysuru district. Its water level was recorded at 2,268.50 feet above sea level, compared with the full reservoir level of 2,284 feet. The inflow into Kabini stood at 2,514 cusecs, while 1,200 cusecs were being discharged downstream. The releases from Kabini and KRS together accounted for the 5,200 cusecs flowing towards Tamil Nadu. Reservoir discharges are normally regulated after considering rainfall, inflows, available storage and downstream requirements. With rainfall weakening across the upper Cauvery catchments, the authorities are expected to closely monitor reservoir levels before making further changes. The reduction has renewed attention on water availability for Tamil Nadu's Cauvery delta. Any fresh spell of rain in Kodagu and Wayanad could improve inflows into KRS, Kabini and other reservoirs in the basin.
