A BJP protest in Bangalore this month.
Written by Johnson T A , Harsha Raj Gatty | Bangalore/thirthahalli | Posted: November 23, 2014 4:28 am
Three Muslim boys lure a 14 year old Hindu girl to a hillock near her house, try to assault her and force her to drink poison. At that moment, they are spotted by an elderly woman who stumbles upon the scene, the boys panic, they escape, the girl is taken home, she dies.
That was the story from Thirthahalli, about 300 km from Bangalore, that spooked an entire state three weeks ago.
But now, sources in the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of Karnataka police say what really happened is this: The girl was depressed after her father moved her to a new school and committed suicide after being unable to cope with studies.
The rest was partly scripted by the scared girl herself before her death, her father who wanted to escape the social stigma of the suicide, and a relative who was a member of the local Bajrang Dal unit, they added.
The investigators have also concluded that Suhan, the only Muslim youth the girl had named, was an unfortunate victim in this episode, a mere acquaintance of the girl who has been kept in protective custody following fears that he may be publicly attacked in the communally charged atmosphere.
Amid the heat and the headlines, all it took for the CID to crack the case was this set of clues: a suicide note found in the girl’s school bag in her own handwriting; lack of any sign of sexual assault; cell phone location data for the Anandagiri hillock and Thirthahalli; forensic reports indicating poisoning as the probable cause of death; medical evidence since the night of October 29 when the girl started vomitting inside her home; and eye-witness accounts.
A CID report on the death – stating that the girl was alone on the hill on October 29, that she concocted the story of her abduction, and that she committed suicide – is now being readied to be handed over soon to the state government, the sources said.
The report is expected to put the lid firmly on weeks of speculation, indignation and conspiracy theories that have been doing the rounds since the girl’s death.
While the girl’s father A G Krishnamurthy had demanded the arrest of Suhan, the BJP’s top leadership in Karnataka had launched protests alleging that the police were shielding the accused because he was a member of a minority community. Thirthahalli was even shut down for a week in the aftermath of the death.
Now, the CID’s findings, from the beginning.
The 14-year-old eighth standard student at the Government School in Thirthahalli, and the elder of two daughters of a small shop owner, was declared dead on the evening of October 30 at the Kasturba Medical College in Manipal.
That night, her father lodged a police complaint stating that his daughter was abducted and taken to the Anandagiri hillock by three persons — including one she identified as an acquaintance from continued…

You should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself. Don't use a dead 14 year old kid to further your bankrupt religio-political ideals.Investigators find no sting in poison tale that spooked a state | The Indian Express

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the East Asia summit, his official Twitter handle, @PMOIndia, stated: ‘We changed Look East policy into Act East policy in the last six months.’ Such glib statements suggest that the PM is not getting briefed accurately or that he is unaware of India’s recent history or he is just happy to mislead the people of India.
We witnessed something similar recently when Modi visited Japan. Anyone who lived through that media coverage would be astonished to learn that India and Japan had any kind of relationship before the change of government. In the frenzy, we lost sight of the fact that Modi’s visit to Tokyo was the culmination of years of solid foundational work on the part of the UPA governments, and that the warm ties between our countries go back over time.
It was the Japanese government that restored some balance. It bestowed one of its highest honours, the ‘Grand Cordon of the Order of the Paulownia Flowers’, on former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. He became the first Indian to receive this award. Singh was honoured for his significant contribution to the enhancement of relations and promotion of friendship between India and Japan.
So what exactly did his government do? It signed a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement that will eliminate 94% of tariffs between us by 2021. It added Japan to Russia as one of only two countries with whom we have a bilateral annual strategic dialogue. It got Japan to join India and the US in trilateral naval exercises. It facilitated Japan becoming the main investor in our mega-infrastructure projects: The Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, whose dedicated freight lines will transform the Indian economic landscape and the Chennai-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor project that will boost commerce with East Asia. Singh visited Japan and appointed Ashwani Kumar as special envoy to ensure prompt follow up action. In turn, we hosted the Japanese emperor and Abe was the chief guest at the 2014 Republic Day Parade.
The razzmatazz associated with Modi’s foreign visits tends to obscure the fact that India’s foreign policy enjoys broad support across party lines and builds on years of effort by diplomats. Breakthroughs come when the strategic landscape changes and countries feel the need to come closer.
Australia had historically focused across the Pacific and was aligned closely with the US, while we pursued non-alignment. In recent years, it changed focus to its geographic location, started engaging its Asian neighbours. But India went off Australia’s radar when the NDA government conducted Pokhran 2. Australia was opposed to India’s nuclear test and all the cricket we played did not bring our countries together.
It has taken the rise of China, increasing student inflows from India, and enhanced bilateral trade to get Australia to reach out to India. The UPA government took advantage of these openings. The fact that India even attended the East Asia Summit and that the definition of the Asia-Pacific region has been expanded to include India is testimony to the UPA’s efforts, which will surely see India gaining admission to the Asia Pacific Economic Council soon. Most importantly, the UPA got the previous Labour government of Australia to lift the ban on selling uranium to India.
During Modi’s trips we get to see the Indian diaspora demonstrate a new self-confidence because of its numbers, success and integration into host countries. Together with cricket, historic ties, etc., they contribute to the soft power aspects of diplomacy. But we need to go beyond drama. Modi’s bonhomie with Japan did not see our countries signing a civil nuclear deal. Beyond the rockstar events, we need results.
Indian diplomacy achieves results when it builds on the farsighted efforts of those who laid and strengthened its foundations earlier. Recognising their initiatives is more appropriate than tastelessly trying to appropriate all the credit for stronger ties with East Asia and the Pacific.

"Administration is an art, which requires patience and seriousness. The BJP lacked these," claimed Rahul Gandhi. (Source: Express photo by Deepu Sebastian)
Press Trust of India | Panki | Posted: November 22, 2014 5:35 pm | Updated: November 22, 2014 5:40 pm
Attacking the BJP for failing to bring back black money within 100 days of power, AICC leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday claimed that administration was “an art that required patience and seriousness” and the BJP lacked the abilities.
Addressing a poll meeting at Panki in Palamau district, Gandhi reminded the BJP as to how it mocked Congress over the latter’s efforts in bringing back black money, but BJP itself “failed” in getting the stashed money from foreign banks.
Attributing the problems surrounding diplomacy for the delay in the pursuit of black money during the UPA regime, he said the Narendra Modi government was talking of the same problems confronting it now.
“Administration is an art, which requires patience and seriousness. The BJP lacked these,” claimed the Congress vice president, adding governance was not run impulsively.
Taking on Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the “Swachh Bharat Campaign”, Gandhi said that the important factor in cleanliness was to make the people aware of cleanliness instead of just placing brooms in the hands.
Accusing the BJP of making moves to amend tenancy acts of Chhotanagpur and Santhal Pargana, Gandhi said the Congress would not allow any change in the acts, which protect land of tribals.
Stating that the Congress had never been in power in Jharkhand directly, Gandhi alleged that Jharkhand was ruled by the BJP for nine of the 14 years that “increased” corruption in the state.
He said the Congress was serious about the state’s development and would definitely take the opportunity if it got, to serve the people of Jharkhand this time.
