Hyderabad, May 23: Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has received a shock when the High Court has rejected his petition to exempt him from personal appearance before the CBI on May 25, as he was busy with his election campaign.

The High Court has rejected the lunch-motion filed by Jagan’s lawyer seeking time for appearance before the CBI which has summoned him to be present on May 25, three days ahead of his appearance before the CBI court.

The High Court has directed CBI to act as per section 41 A of the Cr. PC. Section 41 A provides for the investigating agency to summon any one for questioning to attain valuable information. It also gives power to the agency to take the person into custody, in case of necessity.

Jagan’s lawyer has argued in the High Court that CBI has summoned Jagan on May 25 only to arrest him. The lawyer has also explained how Jagan was seriously engaged in his party’s election activity being the chief campaigner of the party. He has urged the court to exempt Jagan from personal appearance till June 15.

The CBI in its summons has stated that Jagan was being summoned for interrogation in connection with the Vanpic deal of industrialist Nimmagadda Prasad. Jagan’s lawyer has questioned why the CBI has called Jagan after taking Prasad into custody though he was not called when Prasad was questioned for 13 times earlier. 


Entire state on high alert    

Meanwhile, the entire state has been put alert, giving a clear indication that Jagan might be arrested. According to information, SPs of all districts have been asked to be alert and keep an eye on the activities of the YSR Congress. Likewise, they were also reportedly asked to check any movement of party workers to Hyderabad and also be vigilant against possible agitations.

In Hyderabad prohibitory orders were imposed under Section 144. City police Commissioner Anurag Sarma has said that the police had intelligence inputs that some political parties were making arrangements to mobilize people on a large scale. He said the prohibitory orders would be in force until May 29 (Jagan is summoned to appear before the CBI court on May 28). The Commissioner said that heavy mobilization of people would effect on law and order and hence the prohibitory orders.

Mumbai, May 22: The Indian rupee Tuesday slipped to 55.47 against a dollar, hitting a fresh record low for the fifth session in a row, due to increased demand for the American currency from oil firms and weak cues from global markets.

The Indian currency hit a record low of 55.47 against a dollar before closing at 55.40 at the Interbank Foreign Exchange Market here. 

The rupee had hit a low of 55.05 against a dollar in the intra-day trade Monday and closed at 55.03. 

Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said the fall was largely due to the uncertainty in Eurozone and the government was taking steps to curb the slide. 

"The government is taking a series of steps. However, managing rupee is market-related. There is a lot of volatility," Mukherjee told reporters. 

The Indian currency has lost over 20 percent of its value against dollar since the beginning of this year. 

Mukherjee said the Reserve Bank of India will intervene in the foreign exchange markets as and when required. 

In the last few weeks the RBI has announced some steps to control the slide in the value of Indian currency. 

The RBI has asked banks to sell half of the foreign currencies in their accounts. In a bid to attract money from overseas, the RBI has raised interest ceiling that local banks can offer to overseas Indians in forex accounts. 

The RBI has opened a direct dollar window for oil companies, which are worst hit because of the weakness in the domestic currency as they have to pay higher money for the same quantum of import. 

Earlier in a written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha, the finance minister said the government has taken a number of steps to "augment supply of foreign exchange to step stem rupee decline". 

The government's steps include liberalisation of External Commercial Borrowings policy and portfolio investment norms, steps to improve access to corporate bond market through infrastructure debt funds and the RBI's initiatives to curb speculation in the forex markets.

Sydney, May 21: Australia's largest airline Qantas Airways announced Monday that it would cut 500 jobs following a review of its heavy aircraft maintenance and engineering operations.

The airline said it would consolidate heavy maintenance work into Brisbane in Queensland and Victoria's Avalon, Xinhua reported.

Qantas said the restructure was necessary as there was not enough heavy maintenance work required for three separate facilities and the introduction of new technology and modern aircraft would lead to a further 60 percent reduction in heavy maintenance requirements over the next seven years.

As a result of the restructure, heavy maintenance on Boeing 737 aircraft will move from its base at Tullamarine in Melbourne and be maintained in Brisbane along with B767 aircraft and Airbus A330s, the airline said.

The base at Avalon will continue to maintain Boeing 747s.

"There will be a net reduction of 500 positions as a result of the restructure," Qantas said in a statement Monday.

The airline said 422 jobs would go from its Tullamarine and 113 positions would be axed at Avalon.

But 30 new line maintenance jobs will be created in Melbourne and five in Sydney, Qantas said.

The airline said consolidating heavy maintenance and other engineering initiatives would save the company up to $AU 100 million ($US 98.54 million) annually.

One-off costs associated with the restructure will be about $AU 50 million ($US 49.27 million).

Qantas Chief Executive Officer Alan Joyce said the airline was working with the Victorian government to help employees affected with future employment opportunities.

"Dozens of companies in mining and resources, engineering and manufacturing who are looking for highly skilled workers have contacted Qantas seeking to make contact with affected workers," he said in the statement.

 Mallika Sherawat always manages to make news at Cannes - especially for her ensembles. In fact, many people were disappointed when the sassy actor opted for a subdued look sporting a Victoria Beckham outfit at a recent event there, but not much later she did a Mallika Sherawat as always.

At the Cannes premiere of Madagascar 3, the actor went a step further with her red carpet style - she wore a nude plunging backless dress that was held together by a thin blingy belt at the waist. As for her makeup and hair, she went 70s, choosing winged eyeliner and a bouffant a la Saira Banu.

While the look was simple, Mallika's outfit was definitely a better and more daring choice than some of dresses she wore the previous two years at Cannes. But whether her regular red carpet appearances here will fetch her more roles in Hollywood is the big question.

So those who thought that Mallika had gone understated this year at Cannes now stand corrected. The lady always makes sure that at least her outfits, if not her roles, make an oomphy statement!

New Delhi, May 21: Four days after an American woman alleged she was molested by Australian cricketer Luke Pomersbach, playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL), the case took a new turn Monday with the cricketer telling the police that he inadvertently touched the victim as he was under the influence of alcohol, police sources said.

A police officer claimed that Pomersbach, who plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL, has confessed that he was under the influence of alcohol and inadvertently touched the victim.

According to the officer, the name of another IPL cricketer belonging to the RCB team K.P. Appanna has also cropped up in the case as he was found accompanying Pomersbach to the room of the victim.

"Appanna's name came to light after he was seen in CCTV footage recovered from Maurya Sheraton hotel where the American woman was molested during a party," said the officer. 

Police spoke to Appanna, a leg spinner who plays for Karnataka in Ranji Trophy. But the cops have not formally questioned him yet, said the officer. 

The officer informed that they were yet to ascertain whether Appanna entered the room where the victim was staying.

Pomersbach was arrested Friday after the victim Zohail Hamid alleged that he molested her and hit her fiance Sahil Peerzada when he objected to the cricketer's behaviour. Peerzada was punched in his ear following which he had to undergo a surgery.

The official said that Peerzada, who is a friend of RCB owner Siddhartha Mallya, was invited to the post-match party at the hotel. 

At the time of the incident, Peerzada was present along with his fiancee, his friends Moiz and Miraj, and Pomersbach.

Pomersbach misbehaved with Hameed in the party.

"When she left the party along with Peerzada, she was followed by Pomersbach and Appanna after a few minutes," said the official. 

Appanna had come to ask whether Mallya was there in the room, the official said, adding Zohail had also corroborated this.

The official informed that they had recorded Moiz's statement too. 

Zohail had alleged in her complaint to police Friday that five to six members of the IPL team had pressurised her to withdraw the case against Pomersbach.

Police is not ruling out the possibility that she was pressurised to withdraw the complaint against Pomersbach.

None of her films have given her a peaceful sleep and satisfaction till date. Thanks to 'Gabbar Singh', the one that made her walk in the air with its stupendous success. After Gabbar Singh, she scored another hit in a row.
Shruti Hassan Scores Second Hit!
Shruti Hassan is on cloud nine for scoring a hit with 'Gabbar Singh'. Her happiness got double when another hit has fallen into her kitty. Shruti's latest Tamil movie 'Sridhar' is also doing well at Kollywood BO, says a trade pundit. This movie is the dubbed version of Siddharth and Shruti's 'Oh My Friend' that bombed in Andhra Pradesh for its pale narration. However, the makers have changed few portions of it to suit Tamil audiences before making it sound loud in theatres.

Initially there is a critical response for this movie due to poor ratings, but it slowly picked up as youths started flowing in heavily. Among all other co-stars of the movie, only Shruti Hassan got applause in Tamil circuits. This can be called as transformation of 'iron leg' into 'golden leg'!

Sexy heroines are always hurried to erase the line between glamour and skin show to woo mass fans. The most demanded item from them is a 'navel show' and then a 'thigh peek'.
Actress Under Demand For 'Navel Show'
One new actress is now getting lot of offers but with the condition that she should be ready to show her navel. She is Nandita, who shot to fame with Teja's recent movie 'Neeku Naaku Dash Dash'. While mesmerizing eyes and attractive smile are the primary assets of this ravishing beauty, our makers are expecting something sizzling this time. In Teja's film she has not given peeks of her skin though she looked glamorous sometimes.

Right now, she is not accepting any offer that demands her for a skin show, revealed a close friend of this hot beauty. Critics say that if Nandita wants to break into top heroines' zone, she has to take skin route now itself, as a red-hot show sometime later will not help attracting anyone. It is for Nandita to decide!

India will soon file a case in the WTO against visa fee hike by the US, complaining that Indian IT companies face discrimination in regard to their employees who are on short-term contracts in America.
"We have finalised our case. The US visa fee hike is a discriminatory move against Indian IT firms. This week, we will formally file the complaint and seek consultations under WTO," a senior Commerce and Industry Ministry official said.
As per the procedure of World Trade Organisation (WTO), consultation is the first stage of a complaint filed with the global trade body.
The US had raised visa fee in 2010 to fund its enhanced costs on securing border with Mexico under the Border Security Act. Since then, India has been protesting against the measure.
Consultations give parties to the dispute an opportunity to discuss and resolve the issue without proceeding further with litigation. After 60 days, if consultations fail, the complainant may request adjudication by the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB).
The law – Emergency Border Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2010 – has substantially increased the fees for H1B and L1 categories of visas for applicants which employ more than 50 persons in the US or have more than 50 per cent their employees admitted on non-immigrant visas (the
50:50 rule).
"... This is prima facie discriminatory for Indian companies," an official said.
The H1B visa fee has been increased significantly to USD 2,000 and L1 to USD 2,700.
Some of the top Indian companies TCS, Infosys, Wipro and Mahindra Satyam were affected by the US action on visa fee. The US is the largest market for the Indian software exports.

However, the large American high-tech corporations which may bring higher numbers of skilled immigrants into the US would not be affected, since vast majority of their workforce is of Americans.

What ever reason could be, this made those film makers to leave expectations on Nayan playing a key role in ‘Dirty Picture’ remake and search for another heroine…

Vijayawada MP Lagadapati Rajagopal has taken on YSR Congress party president and Kadapa MP Jaganmohan Reddy yet another time.  Comparing Jagan’s irregularities to the convict Bangaru Lakshman, Lagadapati questioned as to how many decades of punishment should Jagan face when Bangaru Lakshman got four year term for accepting one lakh rupees.
Jagan will be arrested soon: Lagadapati
Rajagopal has said that Jaganmohan Reddy would be arrested soon and appealed to the public not to melt in case the family members of Jagan move in public and cry over Jagan’s arrest.
Lagadapati, who was touring West Godavari district, as a part of his election campaign spoke to the media last night. He has said that those who followed the foot steps of Jagan and invested in his companies were behind the bars and Jagan was happily campaigning for by-polls.
Will Jaganmohan Reddy be arrested really as said by Lagadapati? In case he gets arrested before by-polls, will that act not gain the sympathy of followers of late Y S Rajashekara Reddy and his son Jaganmohan Reddy? The coin that would presumably decide political game in the state apparently went for a toss, one has to wait and watch what would be the outcome.

Vijayawada Congress MP Lagadapati Rajagopal has said that YSR Congress president and Kadapa MP Jaganmohan Reddy cannot become a chief minister at any cost. Adding pun to his statement, Lagadapati Rajagopal said women will have to mortgage their 'mangal sutras' (the holy marriage thread worn by Hindu women in India, which is often made of gold and considered auspicious).
Jagan can never become CM: Lagadapati
Lagadapati has said that if there’s something like ballot against corruption, except in Kadapa district, people in all parts of the state would vote that Jagan should go to jail. He has also exuded confidence that Congress would make a clean sweep in all 18 assembly constituencies and one Lok Sabha constituency.
YSR  Congress party is yet to defend the statements of Lagadapati Rajagopal. It looks like YSR Congress is really in a dilemma as by-polls are approaching on one hand and CBI's enquiry is also going on in full swing. Will the hopes of all followers of Jagan get dashed in by-polls? May be yes, say sources!

Well, Mumaith reportedly stated that when in Hyderabad it was very difficult for her to go out as she used to get mobbed and gossips were written a lot.

But currently in Mumbai, no one cares about her so wherever she goes or whoever she goes with doesn't really matter. It is heard that Mumaith is enjoying this newfound freedom and making the most of it. Now, many are trying to understand what she means by 'roaming' and 'doing' anything.

Directed by: Ram Gopal Varma Produced by: Siddhant Oberoi, Amit Sharma Written by: Nilesh Girkar Starring: Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Rana Daggubati, Madhu Shalini, Lakshmi Manchu, Nathalia Kaur Rating: * The last decent movie that Ram Gopal Varma made was Rakht Charitra (part 1) in 2010. Rann was decent as well. He went horribly wrong with the sequel to that film and of course, Not a Love Story. Department seemed promising because of its impressive cast and RGV has a grip over the crime/gangster genre. Sadly, Department is a monstrous disappointment. RGV is obsessed with crotches and the female anatomy as is amply evident in the gross item song featuring hottie Nathalia Pinheiro Kaur. He is also fascinated by weird cinematographic angles and dark tones which make watching Department rather difficult. The viewer has a migraine and distorted vision by the end of this movie! The story is nothing new and nothing much. We have seen special cops operating against the mafia in secret/higher operations in too many movies. Some examples are Kahaani, Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, Ab Tak Chhappan, Jannat 2, and international films like The Departed. So this movie is about the department of cops played by Sanjay Dutt and Rana Daggubati who want to wipe out the crime scene in Mumbai. Vijay Raaz plays the prime gangster and Amitabh Bachchan plays a gangster-turned-politician. There is ample sleaze in the movie which also adds to the painful experience. The action and violence is too much to tolerate. The music is bad and the dialogues make you cringe. There is a lot of nonsense and no sense of reality in the movie. You really wonder how RGV can outdo himself in making unwatchable movies! Sanjay Dutt looks haggard and has his usual “I give a damn” swagger. So he does nothing new. Rana Daggubati looks good but that is about it. The characters do not have soul. You don’t care for them. Vijay Raaz is erroneously cast as the gangster and Abhimanyu Singh and Madhu Shalini as his allies are plain terrible. Abhimanyu Singh needs to do something new. Anjana Sukhani is, surprisingly, a breath of fresh air in a suffocating film. Lakshmi Manchu is a delight to watch. Amitabh Bachchan sportingly plays his character but one does wonder what made him sign this movie. He makes the movie a tad tolerable in a few scenes. At two-and-a-half hours, this is unbearably long and you feel like walking out several times during the movie. By now it is clear that Department doesn’t merit a watch ever! I have run out of words to criticize it further. For Department my review rating is 1 out of 5 stars.

HYDERABAD: An illegal kidney racket involving a nephrologist of a government hospital in the city was busted on Sunday with the arrest of two agents who lured a private employee from Medak to sell away his kidneys. According to police, the agents collect details of patients who are in need of kidney transplantation from various hospitals and strike a deal with them. They contact poor people who are in need of urgent money and lure them into a deal. Two such agents, Rajendra Prasad of Khairatabad in the city and Venkata Srinivas of Addanki in Prakasam district, were caught by the police with the help of a journalist of a TV channel which conducted a sting operation. Approached by decoy police for a kidney, the agents zeroed in on a man from Dubbaka in Medak district and offered him Rs 5 lakh if he donated his kidney. In need of money, the man agreed to be the donor. According to Punjagutta police sub-inspector K Ravi Kumar, the agents take prospective donors to the nephrologist, Dr Ramesh Chada, who works at a government hospital and also at Indu Super Specialty Hospital at Karkhana. `After the doctor gives a certificate that the person can become a donor, transplantation surgery is performed,'' the SI said. On Sunday, when the decoy police approached the doctor in his chambers, he recognised the journalist and, denying his involvement, rushed out of the hospital. Two of his assistants, PS Praveen and Prasanth, who are also allegedly working as agents, also fled the hospital. The two arrested agents had been luring donors with money for the past six months. The transplantation surgeries are being performed at a corporate hospital in the city, police said. Cases under AP Human Organs Transplantation Act, 1995 and Sec 420 of IPC were registered against racketeers and a hunt is on to nab other accused, the SI said.

CHENNAI: Actress Ranjitha has approached a city court to file a complaint against Kanchi Seer Jayendra Saraswathi for his alleged defamatory remarks against her. Ranjitha, who was not present when the matter was called for being taken up by the First Additional Chief Magistrate on file, has been asked to be present in court on May 14. In her complaint, the actress said she is a strong believer in the principles of Hinduism and had attended discourses of self-styled godman Nityananda in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka and became his disciple. She claimed that the insinuation by the Kanchi Seer, during an interview on Wednesday, that she was always in the company of Nityananda and in the habit of accompanying him wherever he went had subjected her to 'immense agony and stress' and was defamatory. In her complaint, she wanted the court to take cognisance of the alleged offence committed by the Seer, which was punishable under Section 499 (defamation) and Section 500 (punishment for defamation) of the IPC. The Kanchi seer had reportedly made the remarks on Wednesday when he opposed Nityananda's appointment as the head of the 1,500-year-old Saivite Mutt, Madurai Adheenam. 'Madurai Adeenam is one of the oldest mutts in India and headed by famous saints like Thirgnana Sambandar. The pontiffs of Madurai Adheenam should tonsure their head and wear 'Rudraksha',' Jayendra Saraswathi had said while alleging that Nityananda was involved in a sex scandal. The appointment of Nityananda, who is facing criminal charges, including rape, as the head of the Mutt, has triggered a controversy, with many religious leaders and political outfits protesting against his appointment. Nityananda had landed in controversy after a video footage purportedly showing him in a compromising position with an actress was telecast by local TV channels in March 2010. He was arrested on April 21 from Solan in Himachal Pradesh and granted bail on June 11 the same year by Karnataka High Court. The Kanchi Seer and his junior Vijayendra are facing murder charges in connection with the killing of Sankararaman, manager in Varadarajaperumal temple in Kancheepuram in 2004. Trial in the case is on in a Puducherry sessions court.

Gabbar Singh Movie Review: 
Banner: Parameshwara Art productions Producer: Bandla Ganesh Director: Harish Shankar Music: Devisri Prasad Cast: Pawan Kalyan, Shruti Haasan, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Abhimanyu Singh, Ajay, Suhasini, Brahmanandam, Ali, Tanikella Bharani, Malaika Arora Rating: 3.5 Story: Power star Pawan Kalyan ‘Gabbar Singh’ is a remake of Bollywood hit film ‘Dabangg’. Though it is a routine story, Salman image and entertaining elements worked in favour of the movie. Director Harish Shankar chooses the same script and reworked on the screenplay to suit Telugu audience. Director Harish Shankar who is a big fan of Pawan Kalyan made sure that there is no disappointment for Pawan Kalyan fans this time. Let’s see how the movie is fared. Police officer Gabbar Singh ( Pawan Kalyan) looking to bridge the gap with his step brother Ajay and stepdad (Naidu) Nagineedu after the death of his mother ( Suhasini). At the same time Gabbar Singh has to stop the atrocities of local don Siddhappa Naidu (Abhimanyu Singh), an aspiring politician. And there is an overtime job for Gabbar Singh to lure Bhagya Lakshmi (Shruthi Haasan) who refuses to fell in his trap. Can Gabbar Singh successful in his three missions? Performance: Pawan Kalyan Rocks. After Kushi, undoubtedly this is the best movie for Pawan Kalyan. His comedy timing is awesome. Rocked in dances and fights. Pawan Kalyan dances are highlight. In one word, it is a tailor made role for Pawan Kalyan. Shruthi Haasan justified her role and acted well in the limited scope she got. This will be a first hit to her credit. Abhimanyu Singh gave a terrific performance in antagonist role. He matched Pawan Kalayan in confrontation scenes. You get to see more him in coming days. Ajay performed well as step brother. Ali as Samba, Brahmanandam as recovery Ranjith Kumar are hilarious. Nagineedu, Suhasini, Tanikella Bharani, Jaya Prakash Reddy etc justified their roles. Malaika Arora sizzled in item song ‘Kevvu Keka’. Technical: Full credit to director Harish Shankar for choosing an age old script and making it an out and out entertainer. Harish Shankar is in full control of the movie. His screenplay is flawless till the pre climax. Movie lags a bit at the end, but it is expected. Director fully knows the strengths of Pawan Kalyan and his fans expectations. He just worked on them to make it out and out entertainer. Harish Shankar also penned some powerful dialogues much to the delight of Pawan Kalyan fans. Next big thing is Music. Devi Sri Prasad music and background score is an asset to the movie. This time Pawan Kalyan also complemented his tunes with his dances. Cinematography by Jayan Vincent did a commendable job. Ram Laxman composed terrific fights. Editing by Goutham Raj is good. Production values are high. Analysis: First thing first, it is out and out entertaining film with all masala ingredients. Though it is a hackneyed story, director made it enjoyable with screenplay filled comedy scenes and Pawan Kalyan Action and dialogues. First half of the movie is fast paced and there are no dull moments. However, second half is bit slow towards climax before ending on predictable note. Pawan Kalyan Comedy, Dialogues and Dances are major pluses for the movie. All songs are picturised very well. But, ‘Kevvu Keka’ is bit disappointing considering the hype it got. Anthakshari episode in police station, Background songs are enjoyable. On the flipside, routine age old story, weak climax might work against the movie. Finally, it is a neat Commercial Entertainer which can be Enjoyed by Everyone. Go and watch it!!!

Hyderabad: Director Gopichand Malineni, who has carved a niche for himself with films like 'Don Seenu', 'Bodyguard', is set to direct 'Mass Maharaja' Ravi Teja again in his next movie. The buzz making the rounds in the tinsel town is the movie is tentatively titled as 'Balupu'. SS Thaman will score the music for the movie. Goan beauty Ileana D'Cruz is likely to play the lead role opposite Ravi Teja who will play a 'play boy' role in the movie. Sources close to the director said, 'We haven't finalised the title, but we're considering the title 'Balupu' which will be apt for the mannerism of 'energetic' actor Ravi Teja. Ileana is being considered for the lead role. Currently, director Gopichand is busy in music sittings with SS Thaman.' Previously, Ravi Teja and Gopichand Malineni worked together for 'Don Seenu' which was a hit at box-office.

Hyderabad: Upping the ante against the Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy, the YSR Congress Party has made a serious allegation on Wednesday that it suspected the role of Kiran Kumar Reddy in the death of former chief minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy. Addressing the media, party's spokesperson Gattu Ramachandra Rao said, 'He was to travel along with YSR on the fateful day of September 2, 2009, but did not board the flight. He had suddenly changed his mind and informed that he was not going with YSR in the BELL helicopter just fifteen minutes before its scheduled departure. Why did he do so? Was he aware that something terrible was going to happen? Afterall, Rachchabanda programme was to start in a village near his constituency and he had to be present there. But Kiran chose to stay away. We strongly believe that he is also a conspirator and demanded a thorough and impartial probe.' Ramachandra Rao further said that it was not his personal allegation but it was what the party felt. He challenged the Chief Minister to resign and get elected afresh if he had the backing of people. 'Will he resign if his party is defeated in the by-polls? All those who are leveling serious charges against Jagan had signed a declaration to make him the next CM soon after YSR's death,' Rao said. Coming down heavily on Congress high command, he alleged that all the script work of summoning Jagan, freezing of accounts had been done in Delhi with close monitoring by some senior leaders of All India Congress Committee (AICC). 'This was aimed at creating a sense of fear among the YSR Congress Party cadres and confusing the electorate as Congress fears that it would lose the by-polls. Congress and Telugu Desam Party have been colluding in trying to implicate Jagan in false cases' Rao said.

May 9: Senior journalist Kuladip Nayyar has strongly condemned the freezing of accounts of Sakshi newspaper by the CBI. In his response to the decision of the agency investigating into the alleged disproportionate assets of the YSR Congress chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, the noted journalist has said despite their political differences, leaders should not interfere with the functioning of newspapers. He said the act of the government was in a way stifling of freedom of the press, as enshrined in the Constitution. He said he was worried about the action taken against Sakshi newspaper. Kuldip Nayyar has said that all CBI was making was mere allegations and no action could be contemplated until they were proved. He demanded that all the action being taken against the newspaper be immediately withdrawn. He said whatever be the tenor of Sakshi’s voice, he said the newspaper had its own right to express in the democracy. He reminded that CBI should bear in mind that it had no good reputation and was often charged of working under the directions of the government. He has advised the agency to look at politics and the media from two different angles. He also said that the government should remember that a large number of employees were working in Sakshi newspaper.

Hyderabad, May 9: The state government has issued orders stopping advertisements to Sakshi newspaper and TV owned by the YSR Congress chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy. A GO (no. 2097) was issued by the government on Thursday, stopping advertisements to Jagan’s media. Officials of the Information and Public Relations department have explained that the decision was taken in view of the CBI investigation and filing of charge-sheets against the newspaper and its owners, in a case of illegal procurement of funds and money laundering. It is learnt that the CBI has recently searched the Information and Public Relations department and seized 46 files concerning advertisements to the Sakshi media. The Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy has reportedly discussed the matter with the Advocate General Sudarshan Reddy and Information and Public relations Commissioner Chandravadan a couple of days ago. It is learnt that the Chief Minister has sought the opinion of the two on the propriety of continuing government’s patronage as CBI has filed charge-sheets about flow of illegal funds into the newspaper and TV channel. It is learnt that the three have decided that it would be perfectly legal to stop advertisements, pending finalization of the case. It is being said that Kiran Kumar Reddy is of the view that if the government strikes at the economic base of Jagan’s media before by-polls, it would be advantageous to the Congress party. Several leaders of the Congress party hold a view that Jagan’s popularity largely depended on his media and by forcing a near closure of Sakshi newspaper and TV channel, his influence could be considerably contained. But there are others in the ruling party who hold a different view. They feel that all these acts of persecution would only strengthen Jagan further.
