Delhi ashram chief accused of molestation; BJP fills Bengaluru potholes in protest

The head of a well-known ashram in Delhi’s Vasant Kunj area is absconding after over 15 women accused him of molestation. Following the allegations, the Sri Sringeri Math administration removed Swami Chaitanyananda Saraswati from his position as director. Police have traced his last known whereabouts to Agra.

Karnataka is witnessing a political tussle over road conditions, especially in Bengaluru. The BJP launched a state-wide ‘road roko’ protest across all 224 constituencies demanding better infrastructure. In Bengaluru, party workers even began filling potholes themselves, with Yelahanka MLA taking early action fearing arrest.
