BJP MP Jagadish Shettar on Saturday raised concerns over the alleged honeytrap scandal in Karnataka, claiming that several insiders, including ministers and influential figures, are involved in it. He accused the state government of attempting to suppress the issue to prevent a political crisis and reiterated his demand for a CBI investigation. Speaking to the media, Shettar alleged that a thorough probe could expose high-profile individuals, which is why there is a concerted effort to shut down the case. «Several insiders are involved, and if a serious investigation takes place, many Karnataka ministers and important people will be implicated, which is why they want to close everything. I have insisted multiple times that the honey trap issue should be investigated by the CBI to reveal the truth, as the current government appears to be trying to suppress the matter to avoid a political collapse,» the BJP MP said. Recently, the Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to entertain a PIL seeking an independent probe by CBI or SIT into the alleged honeytrapping of legislators, public servants and judges in Karnataka.

Dhoni's unbeaten 30 off 16 balls only has value for nostalgia merchants as the former India captain is doing disservice to his team by coming in to bat when all is seemingly lost.

Sandeep Kumar Gupta, CMD, GAIL (India), says the Rs 20 increase in tariff which they have filed will translate to Rs 3,400 crore per annum and they are very hopeful that at least two elements out of this, – Rs 1,200 crore for true up-of-the-system use gas cost and about Rs 800 crore due to the APM price deallocation and the capacity determination totalling Rs 2,000 crore – is certain. We expect that this development should be there in the next month itself. How do you see the proposed tariff changes by PNGRB and how does GAIL benefit from this? Sandeep Kumar Gupta: The public consultation document which has been floated by PNGRB proposing certain changes in the regulation covers two-three main changes. First, there will be only two zones instead of the three zonal tariffs presently available and the silver lining is that for all CGDs, for their domestic PNG and CNG volumes, only zone one tariff will be applicable. This will be a big positive for GAIL which is present in 72 geographical areas out of the total 307 geographical areas.
