The Lingayat Panchamasali community, which is seeking reservation under 2A category, will hold a Pratijnya Panchayat in Hubballi on September 25, in the run-up to the second phase of the agitation.
Addressing presspersons in Hubballi on Wednesday, president of the reception committee of the Panchamasali Agitation Committee Ninganna Karikatti said that the event in Hubballi was another step towards reminding the State government about its promise of including the community under 2A category.
Mr. Karikatti said that the then Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa and then Home Minister and present Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai had sought time for fulfilling the demand. “Now that time has ended. We urge Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to take a decision on the issue by October 1, failing which the community will resume its agitation at Freedom Park in Bengaluru,” he said.

When fed into Latin, pusilla comes out denoting “very small”. The Baillon’s crake can be missed in the field, when it is at a distance, as the magnification of the human eye is woefully short of what it takes to pick up this tiny creature. The other factor is the Baillon’s crake’s predisposition to present less of itself: it moves about furtively and slides into the reeds at the slightest suspicion of being noticed. But if you are keen on observing the Baillon’s crake or the ruddy breasted crake in the field, in Chennai, this would be the best time to put in efforts towards that end. These birds live amidst reeds, the bulrushes, which are likely to lose their density now as they would shrivel and go brown, leaving wide gaps, thereby reducing the cover for these tiddly birds to stay inscrutable.
