The interim bail was granted to ensure the accused can appear for his engineering exams.

The interim bail was granted by the Malkajgiri Court till 26th of this month.

Public prosecutors did not object to the bail petition filed by Bandi Bhagirath’s legal team.

Good to see that the RSS debate is now attracting “legal luminaries” too.

I am ready to discuss, deliberate and debate this issue anytime, anywhere on law, Constitution, transparency and accountability.

And I sincerely hope this post targeting me by @JethmalaniM will not be billed to either the BJP or the RSS.

Mr. Mahesh, you say:

“A dynast indulged by inheritance does not become larger than the Constitution merely because he sits in a ministerial chair.”

Interesting pravachan coming from the son of Shri Ram Jethmalani.

A surname may open doors, but it does not automatically give weight to every argument. And certainly, invoking the Constitution while defending opacity does not make the argument constitutional.

Let me remind you of a basic distinction:

You are selected representative.
I am an elected public representative

Not once. Not twice. But, Thrice.

So, before lecturing me on constitutional morality, please answer the real question: why should any organisation of such scale, influence and public activity remain outside ordinary legal transparency?

Please get yourself appointed as the RSS designated legal representative and respond to our queries in my office if they allow you.

Also, this applies equally to all the “legal luminaries” writing editorials and delivering pravachans on TV.

PS: if you don’t mind me asking Mahesh ji, do your children:
- attend RSS shakhas
- spend time Gau Shalas
- drink Gau mutra
- Are they Gau or Dharam Rakshaks (at least part time)

If they aren’t doing it, are they also anti nationals like me?

Unpopular opinion. You can dump on Janhavi Nilekani all you want, but she isn't responsible for the mess in our education or healthcare. YOUR electoral choices are.

Janhavi did not ask you to bang plates and shout Go Corona Go. She did not saffronize school syllabi. She did not promote pseudoscience.

YOU on the other hand voted for people who did. Because you wanted lynchmobs and bulldozers. You didn't think you would be affected but here we are.

ग़ुलामी! जानते हैं क्या होती है? इस विडीओ में समझ आएगा।

समस्या भाषा नहीं है, नरेंद्र मोदी अंग्रेज़ी नहीं बोल पाते, इसलिए हिन्दी बोल रहे हैं और अनुवादक अंग्रेज़ी में बोल रहा है, यहाँ तक कोई दिक़्क़त नहीं है।

दिक़्क़त है शब्दों में, दिक़्क़त है बॉडी लैंग्वेज की, दिक़्क़त है राग-दरबारी गाने से। आमतौर पर अमेरिका के राष्ट्रपति को 'मिस्टर प्रेसिडेंट' कह कर सम्बोधित किया जाता है। लेकिन यहाँ नरेंद्र मोदी उन्हें बार-बार 'एक्सेलेन्सी' कह रहे हैं। ये है सबसे बड़ी ग़ुलामी की निशानी।

अब आते हैं शब्दों पर। नरेंद्र मोदी, डॉनल्ड ट्रम्प की किस बात के लिए भूरि-भूरि प्रशंसा कर रहे हैं? पूरी दुनिया में तहलका मचाने के लिए? पश्चिमी एशिया में कौन सी शांति स्थापित की ट्रम्प ने, जिसकी नरेंद्र मोदी इतनी तारीफ़ किए जा रहे हैं?

हमारे नाविक मारे गए, उसके लिए इतने मीठे शब्दों में अनुनय-विनय? कि उनकी जान की रक्षा महत्वपूर्ण है? माना कि डिप्लोमैटिक बातचीत में आप किसी का कॉलर नहीं पकड़ सकते, लेकिन इतना घिघियाया भी नहीं जाता। आपको बोलना चाहिए था कि भारत शान्ति का पक्षधर ज़रूर है, लेकिन भारत की सेनाओं ने चूड़ियाँ नहीं पहन रखी हैं। अमेरिका की ऐसी कोई भी धृष्टता, हमारे सम्बन्ध हमेशा के लिए चौपट कर सकती है।

आप हाथ में पर्ची लिए एक-एक लाइन डर-डर के बोल रहे हैं, आपका हलक़ सूखा जा रहा है। बुला लीजिए किसी बॉडी लैंग्वेज एक्स्पर्ट को, और पूछिए उससे कि क्या ये विडीओ देख कर ऐसा नहीं लग रहा है कि शहंशाह के दरबार में बैठा एक मुलाज़िम, उस शहंशाह की शान में क़सीदे पढ़ रहा है?

पुराने ज़माने में अगर बादशाह सलामत किसी को चाकू फेंक कर मारें और निशाना चूक जाए तो दरबारी कहते थे कि 'ख़ंजर ने ना-फरमाबरदारी कर दी' मतलब चाकू ने महराज के आदेश की अवहेलना की है। आप भी कुछ वैसा करते नज़र आ रहे हैं।

@narendramodi जी, पूरी दुनिया में एक सनकी ने जीना हराम कर रखा है, और आप उसे 'शान्ति के प्रयासों' के लिए धन्यवाद कर रहे हैं?

बेहद शर्मनाक है ये!

#WATCH | Bengaluru, Karnataka: After meeting CM DK Shivakumar, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Founder of Biocon and honorary consul of Ireland, says, "Honorary consuls of Bengaluru had a very good meeting with Chief Minister DK Shivakumar. We are all supporting him on all the new initiatives that are required to develop Bangalore into a world-class city. I think every country that we represent is willing to basically support this effort. So, I think that’s the main essence of our conversation. The Chief Minister is very committed to developing not just Bengaluru, but Karnataka, and making it both a world-class city and a leading state in the country. I think he’s doing a lot. Now, I think he’s going to double down and really get things moving. Bangalore needs better infrastructure, including the tunnel road, many elevated highways, corridors. So, I think a lot is going to happen, and of course, he has taken bold measures in garbage and solid waste management. So, I think we should, as citizens, really do our bit to be very civic-minded."

Let RSS decide who they are. Sometimes they call themselves cultural organisation or think tank or parent org of BJP. Once they decided, they will register under the relevant act.
Why are they afraid to get registered? Are they above the law or constitution?

[J Gopikrishnan @jgopikrishnan70]

Does RSS have registration is an old question by Digvijaya Singh ... Priyank Kharge just rehashed the question.. Question is where to register and under which Act RSS to be registered??? There is an Income Tax exemption for RSS, terming its main income is thru Guru Dakshina... Political party has to be registered (if wanted to contest) under Representation of People's Act and Election Commission Rules ..

NGOs have different registration like under FCRA, if foreign donation receiving, Charitable Organisations have another Act, some States have Charitable Society Act.... Let Priyank Kharge tell... Knowing the reality he just shoots questions ... And always Police approval need for annual route march of RSS... Some time Police objected and Court gave clearance for Root March ... Now Priyank Kharge is Home Minister of Karnataka. Will he block next route march of RSS in Karnataka? 😎

Congratulations, hope you serve the people better.

[Mansoor Khan @MansoorKhanINC]

Yesterday, I received my Certificate of Election as a Member of Parliament in the #RajyaSabha, elected by the members of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly.

This is my first public office. I do not take that lightly.

I stood outside the Vidhana Soudha with a copy of the Constitution of India in my hand and made myself a promise: everything I do from here gets measured against that book.

I have spent nearly two decades in the Indian National Congress, almost all of it behind the scenes, in the organisation. Many people outside the party and outside of Bengaluru Central Lok Sabha constituency have not heard of me. I understand the question: who is this person, and why has he been given this responsibility? I want to answer that honestly, and then tell you what I plan to do with it.

My father, @KRahmanKhan2, served as a Union Minister and a Member of Parliament. In the mid-2000s, when he was at the height of his career, I started mine. I did not start in his office or in Delhi. I started on the ground, as an ordinary party worker at the block level in the Jayanagar Assembly constituency.

That was my choice, shaped by a value system my father instilled early: that public life is earned from the ground, not inherited from an office. Over nearly two decades, I worked my way through the organisation, from a block-level KPCC worker to AICC Secretary. The party trusted me with responsibilities in Telangana and Kerala, where we were fortunate enough to help form governments.

In 2024, I was given the opportunity to contest the Bangalore Central Lok Sabha election. It was hard fought. In the course of that election, serious discrepancies in the voter rolls of my constituency came to light. Under the direction of the party leadership, we undertook a thorough investigation into these findings. Shri @RahulGandhi ji recognised their gravity, took them up at the national level, and made it the Vote Chori campaign that shook the country. What started in Bangalore Central is now a much larger reckoning with electoral integrity. That fight is far from over.

That climb, posting by posting, campaign by campaign, taught me more than any office could. And I want to be honest: this is not an arrival. This is a beginning. We are on the ground floor.

For those who do not know my style of working: I am a data-driven person. In business and in politics, my approach has been the same. I listen, I try to understand the real problem, I find the bottleneck, and I work to solve it as efficiently as I can.

I do not cut corners on policy. I am new to this role, and I know it. But the Rajya Sabha demands seriousness, and I intend to match it. What sounds good and what actually works are often different things. I care about the difference, and that will define how I work in Parliament.

Bengaluru is home to some of the finest startups in this country. The people of this city work day and night to contribute to India's growth and its GDP. The best of them build in public: they share their process, invite scrutiny, iterate in the open.

I want to take a page from that book.

I have always been a Bengaluru boy at heart. I grew up surrounded by this city's technocratic culture, and I connect with it deeply.

I will try to represent in public.

And through that, involve the people of this country in the legislative process itself.

My research, my positions on policy, my understanding of the issues will be shared openly through X, Substack, social media, long-form articles, and every other medium that helps these ideas reach the people, before they are final. Every first pass will be open to suggestions and criticism.

I will set up a web portal and as many other touchpoints as needed, online and offline, so that any citizen can reach me with policy ideas, grievances, or questions that fall within the scope of what a Rajya Sabha MP can address. These access points will grow as the feedback comes in and the needs become clearer. I will be upfront about what I can do and what I cannot, so nobody's time is wasted.

I will scale my core team and its capabilities to encompass all the new responsibilities that come with this position. That will take time, but it is the very first thing I am investing in.

I invite the media, educationists, policy specialists, and every citizen of this country to engage with this process. What I pursue, why I pursue it, and how I plan to act will be publicly documented and open for input at every stage. The goal is that no one goes unheard.

I represent Karnataka in Parliament, and this state will always be my primary focus. But I also get the opportunity to sit in the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of the Indian Parliament. That is a responsibility to the country. The issues I raise will serve Karnataka first, and India always. This post, and everything that follows, is addressed to every citizen of this country.

The party has entrusted me with this platform. I intend to use it to contribute to what the Indian National Congress stands for, and I will strive my very best to earn that trust every day.

I am deeply grateful to CPP Chairperson Smt. Sonia Gandhi ji, @INCIndia President Shri Mallikarjun @kharge avaru, Leader of the Opposition Shri @RahulGandhi ji, Member of Parliament and AICC General Secretary Smt. @priyankagandhi ji, AICC General Secretary (Organisation) Shri @kcvenugopalmp ji, AICC General Secretary In-charge Shri @rssurjewala ji, Karnataka Chief Minister Shri @DKShivakumar avaru, Shri @siddaramaiah avaru, @INCKarnataka President Shri @HariprasadBK2 avaru, and all @INCIndia leaders for placing their trust in me.

And to the workers, the ones who have been with this party through every season, in the heat and in the rain, booth by booth: this seat belongs to you as much as anyone.

The certificate is in my hand. The oath, before the Vice President of India, lies ahead. But in my mind, the work has already begun.

ಕರ್ನಾಟಕಕ್ಕಾಗಿ. ಭಾರತಕ್ಕಾಗಿ. ಸಂವಿಧಾನಕ್ಕಾಗಿ. ಕೆಲಸ ಆರಂಭ.

For Karnataka. For India. For the Constitution. The work begins.
