of Markanja, has created<br />
a work of art, where a cobra<br />

moment one enters the residence<br />

from a distance as if a long<br />
venomous cobra is resting<br />
on a washing stone near the<br />
water tank. The artist took<br />
15 days to complete his little<br />
work of art keeping in mind<br />

STUDENTS FIND NEET-2 EXAM<br />
TOUGHER THAN NEET-1<br />
National Eligibilitycum-Entrance<br />
Test Phase<br />
2, which was conducted on<br />
Sunday, received mixed responses<br />
from the students.<br />
Students who are medical<br />
and dental seat aspirants<br />
wrote the exam on Sunday<br />
but were disappointed<br />
as they found the paper<br />
tougher than the Common<br />
Entrance Test and NEET<br />
phase 1. NEET phase 2 is<br />
considered the last chance<br />
to fetch a seat and many<br />
medical seat aspirants give<br />
up their NEET Phase 1<br />
seat to prepare for NEET-2.<br />
However, the exam on Sunday<br />
seems to have let down<br />
the students.<br />
“As anticipated, the difficulty<br />
level of the paper was<br />
more than the CET. What<br />
made it harder was that<br />
NEET has negative marking,<br />
which CET doesn’t,” said a<br />
student. Students, who had<br />
failed to bag medical and<br />
dental seats through CET,<br />
are now depending on their<br />
NEET scores. Students who<br />
took up the exam said the<br />
questions in NEET were<br />
more application based<br />
and twisted. Teachers at<br />
coaching centres said that<br />

ANOTHER ARRESTED IN DYSP<br />
KALLAPPA CASE<br />
The investigation team<br />
handling the DySP Kallappa<br />
Handbag suicide case<br />
has made another arrest<br />
in connection with<br />
the case in Bengaluru on<br />
Sunday. The arrested Joy<br />
Milton is one of the key<br />
accused in the kidnapping<br />
case in Chikkamagaluru<br />
that led to Deputy<br />
Superintendent of Police<br />
(DySP) of Chikkamagaluru<br />
sub-division Kallappa<br />
Handibag’s suicide.<br />
He was arrested from a<br />
house at Anepalya, Bengaluru.<br />
The police had earlier<br />
arrested Abhiram, an associate<br />
of main suspect<br />
Praveen Khandya, who<br />
along with his associates<br />
Naveen Shetty, Ashwin<br />
Shetty and Jeeva are still<br />
on the run.<br />
The police are on the<br />
lookout for the suspects<br />
in other states also.<br />
CID has expressed its<br />
disappointment over the<br />
lenient police attitude<br />
towards arrested Hindu<br />
leader of Malnad region,<br />
Praveen Khandya<br />
in the abduct case which<br />
prompted the suicide of<br />
Chikkamagaluru DySP<br />
Kallappa Handibag. It is<br />
learnt that the CID has informed<br />
the state government<br />
about the same.<br />
“Though Pravin<br />
Khandya was the main<br />
conspirator in the kidnap<br />
of financier H M Tejas, that<br />
made Kallappa commit<br />
suicide, the local police<br />
were not strict enough to<br />
take action. Tejas had said<br />
that Praveen Khandya is<br />
directly responsible for<br />
the kidnap but the police<br />
have made Khandya the<br />
fourth accused which is<br />
questionable. Khandya<br />
was justifying police action<br />
during peace meetings<br />
relating to communal<br />
riots. Therefore some senior<br />
Police officials have<br />
gone soft on him. In the<br />
circumstances Abhishek<br />
who helped in the kidnap<br />
has been made first suspect<br />
instead of Khandya.<br />
Nataraj who had financial<br />
disputes with Tejas and<br />
Khandya’s friend Navin<br />
Shetty have been made<br />
second and third suspects<br />
respectively. Khandya has<br />
been made fourth suspect.”<br />
added the CID officials<br />
to media.<br />
Chikkamagaluru police<br />
had arrested Tejas and his<br />
assistants for betting on<br />
the basis of information<br />
given by Praveen Khandya<br />
himself. Though the area<br />
comes under Chikkamagaluru<br />
sub division limits<br />
under DySP Kallappa Handibag,<br />
the neighborhood<br />
police authorities did not<br />
notify him prior to the assault<br />
on the betting den.<br />
The circle inspector had<br />
taken leave for personal<br />
work. In this manner the<br />
raid on betting nook was<br />
led under supervision by<br />
higher authorities without<br />
informing the circle<br />
Inspector and the DySP.<br />
Tejas in the police objection<br />
against Khandya<br />
expressed that Abhijith<br />
and six others kidnapped<br />
him on June 28 at 2 am,<br />
took him to Bengaluru<br />
and kept him in unlawful<br />
confinement in a godown.<br />
Navin Shetty ordered Tejas<br />
to pay Rs 25 lacks to<br />
Nataraj. As Tejas declined<br />
to pay, Navin Shetty ambushed<br />
him.<br />
Meanwhile, Handibag’s<br />
family met with the CM<br />
on Monday at his home office<br />
Krishna to request the<br />
government to carry out<br />
a fair investigation and<br />
punish the culprits at the<br />
earliest.<br />

Sunil Kumar who launched<br />
the final phase on Sunday<br />
said, “instead of planting<br />
new sapling in old pits, it is<br />
better to nurture one-yearold<br />
saplings by sprinkling<br />
water and providing soil<br />
that include the entire<br />
planets and elements of the<br />
solar system.<br />
Dr Mukbal Bagawan, Mayor<br />
Sangeeta Pol and Assistant<br />
Commissioner Parashuram<br />
