Vishwanath Sajjanar

It is also not for the first time that the upright IPS officer's name is heard in such heroic feats. He had even encountered an Auto driver, accused in throwing acid on a married woman in Warrangal district. Then he was serving as Superintendent of Police(SP) at Warangal.

The country woke up early in the morning on Friday with the breaking news of the culprits behind the rape and torching to death of 26 years old Veterinary doctor being shot dead in an encounter in the wee hours.

Vishwanath Sajjanar's instant action following an attempt by the culprits to snatch rifle of the Police Commissioner and move to attack the police team with stones as reported has drawn a huge applause over the social networking sites.

The police action has also raised alarms about the genuinity of the police action in some quarters while it has been hailed as "right and proper justice" to the rape and burning to death victim, among general public.

The 1996 batch police officer was allotted Andhra Pradesh cadre and has been serving in the state from then and continued in Telangana state after the unified Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated. He has served as SP of eight districts and his stint in Anti Naxal Force brought him many a laurel for persuading the Naxalites to surrender and return to the mainstream.In fact Vishwanath Sajjanar's father is a native of Asuti village of Ron taluk in Gadag district. However, Vishwanath Sajjanar was born and brought up in Hubballi. He is a B Com graduate from Jagadguru Gangadhar College of Commerce popularly known as JG College of Commerce. He later did his MBA from Karnataka University, Dharwad.

His family continues to reside at Kanchgar Galli in Hubballi.

When Punjab Chief Minister's Son Was Paraded On Underwear

Year, 1959, Place Amritsar. Some Indian Army Officers & their wives went to the Railway Station to see off one of their colleagues. Some goons made lewd remarks against the women & tried to molest them. The Army Officers chased the goons who took shelter in a nearby Cinema Theatre. The matter was reported to Commanding Officer Col Jyothi Mohan Sen. On learning about the incident, the Col ordered the Cinema Hall to be surrounded by troops. All the goons were dragged out, the leader of the goons was so heady and drunk with power; he was none other than the son of Chief Minister of Punjab, Pratap Singh Kairon, a close associate of the then PM, Jawahar Lal Nehru.

Countries with Surplus Budgets

*By Dr. Devan A budget surplus is one of the clearest signals of fiscal discipline, economic prudence, and long-term stability in governance. While many nations run chronic deficits, there remain countries that stand apart, demonstrating to the world that living within one’s means is not only possible but advantageous. A budget surplus occurs when a government’s revenues exceed its expenditures over a fiscal period. This provides room for investment in infrastructure, health, education, and sovereign wealth funds, while also acting as a shield against future economic downturns. In this essay, I will explore which countries currently maintain budget surpluses, why they succeed in doing so, what structural characteristics enable this, and what lessons deficit-ridden nations may derive from their example. Defining the Budget Surplus A government raises money primarily through taxes, duties, royalties, and state-owned enterprise dividends. Against this revenue, it spends on public wages, d...

World-renowned Cartoonist BG Gujjarappa says: My Best is Yet to Come

Many people are in the fond practice of complaining every now and then that they hardly get any time to pursue their passions. Maybe, they could be genuine in their own ways, but never ever in the case of the veteran artist, political cartoonist, caricaturist, children’s illustrator, and also into multimedia, Banagere Gangaiah Gujjarappa. Perhaps BG Gujjarappa or Gujjar as he is popularly well-known is a household name to readers of Newspapers, Tabloids, Periodicals, and a variety of books for several decades.

The Siddeshwara Temple is renowned for the four famous Shiva shrines as Lord Shiva appears in the human form, like in seated yoga posture, deep in meditation etc. q...
