Deolapar cops rescue 7 calves from Honda City car
Nagpur: In a swift and effective operation, Deolapar police rescued seven cattle being transported illegally and seized a vehicle used in the crime. The incident unfolded during a routine roadblock set up by the police near the Old Deolapar police station as part of a crackdown on illegal activities. A speeding four-wheeler approached the checkpoint. When officers signalled the vehicle to stop, the driver ignored instructions, fled the scene, and abandoned the vehicle near the Chorbahuli bridge. Upon inspection, police discovered seven cattle crammed into the car. The accused had removed the back seat of the vehicle to make space, forcing the animals into inhumane conditions — their horns and legs bound tightly with ropes, with no access to food or water. Authorities immediately seized the vehicle, valued at Rs3.5 lakh, along with the cattle worth an estimated Rs1 lakh. The total value of the seizure stands at Rs4.5 lakh. The rescued cattle were promptly shifted to the Gau-Vigyan Anusandan Kendra at Deolapar for care and nourishment. A case was registered under relevant sections for cruelty to animals and illegal transport. The Deolapar police are working to identify and apprehend the absconding accused. This operation highlights the department's continued commitment to curbing illegal animal trade and ensuring animal welfare in the region.

Siddaramaiah inaugurates district office complex in Mangaluru
Mangaluru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday inaugurated the newly constructed district office complex at Padil on the outskirts of Mangaluru and underscored his government's commitment to inclusive growth, social justice, and communal harmony. Speaking at the event, Siddaramaiah said that despite decades of progress, socio-economic inequality and social injustice continued to persist. 'Our government has taken several measures to promote equality and empower women and economically weaker sections. The guarantee schemes we introduced ahead of the 2023 elections, costing Rs58,000 crore annually, are part of this broader vision,' he said. Highlighting Karnataka's financial capacity to support development, the Chief Minister pointed out that the state's capital expenditure had increased from Rs58,000 crore last year to Rs 83,000 crore this year. 'This shows we have not compromised on development even while rolling out welfare schemes,' he said. Siddaramaiah also announced that new government medical colleges would be established in Bagalkote, Dakshina Kannada, and Kolar districts. Each college would initially have 250 beds, with plans to expand to 500 beds in the future. He criticised the Centre over the tax devolution formula, stating that while Karnataka contributes Rs4.5 lakh crore to the Union government in taxes, it receives only Rs 65,000 crore in return — just 16 per cent of its contribution. 'Even so, we will ensure that no district is left behind in development,' he said. Calling for peace and unity in the coastal region, Siddaramaiah said Dakshina Kannada should set an example as a land of peace and co-existence. 'The region must rise above communal tensions and lead the way in building a harmonious and progressive coast,' he said. The event was attended by senior ministers, legislators, and officials from the district administration
