Karnataka High Court Halts Deportation Of Russian Woman's Children Found In Cave
Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has intervened to temporarily halt the deportation of a Russian woman's children, emphasising the need to consider their best interests as mandated by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). The decision of Justice S Sunil Dutt Yadav came during the hearing of a writ petition that was filed to challenge a sudden deportation order issued against the children. The petitioner, represented by advocate Beena Pillai, argued that the deportation process disregarded the children's welfare and violated UNCRC principles. The assistant solicitor general (ASG), appearing in the matter for the Union of India, informed the court that the children currently lack valid travel or identity documents. Based on this submission, the court observed that immediate deportation was not reasonable at this stage. However, the court stressed the importance of a detailed hearing to thoroughly examine the case. It directed the respondents to submit a written affidavit, confirming the absence of valid documents, and file their objections within two weeks. Additionally, the court issued a clear directive that no deportation plan can be executed without prior intimation to it, effectively stalling any unilateral deportation effort until the next hearing scheduled for August 18. Nina Kutina (40), along with her two daughters Preya (6) and Ama (4), was rescued by police from the Ramatirtha cave at Gokarna in Uttara Kannada district on July 11. Kutina was staying here even though her visa had expired.

Jangama Lingayat cannot be treated asBeda Jangama: Karnataka high court
Bengaluru: The Kalaburagi bench of the Karnataka high court ruled that Jangama Lingayat cannot be classified as Beda Jangama, a scheduled caste category. Justices S Sunil Dutt Yadav and Ramachandra D Huddar delivered the ruling recently while allowing writ appeals from the social welfare department and the Karnataka State Dalit Sangharsha Samiti, Bidar. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The case involved one Ravindra Swamy of Bidar whose election nomination for Gulbarga parliamentary constituency was rejected due to caste certificate issues. A separate election petition is pending. On Aug 23, 2019, the tahsildar granted Swamy the eligibility for an SC Beda Jangama certificate. The deputy commissioner overturned this decision on April 3, 2023. When Swamy approached high court, a single bench on Oct 11, 2023, referred the matter to the caste verification committee. Swamy contested the directive, citing his maternal uncle's similar certificate. State counsel C Jagadish raised the question of whether a Veerashaiva Lingayat Jangama could claim Beda Jangama status, referencing the Supreme Court's Prabhudev Mallikarjunaiah case. The division bench noted that the caste verification committee lacks jurisdiction over election-related certificates. It also highlighted that Swamy's family members' educational records identified them as Lingayats. The Supreme Court's position prevents courts from extending SC status to similar caste names in constitutional notifications. Therefore, Beda Jangama or Budaga Jangama cannot include Veerashaiva Lingayat Jangamas. The bench concluded that Swamy's Lingayat status precluded Beda Jangama benefits. A family member's certificate possession doesn't entitle others if they belong to the Veerashaiva Lingayat community.
