Singer Sonu Nigam has publicly apologized to Karnataka’s people following an FIR against him for allegedly making derogatory remarks about the Kannadiga community during a Bengaluru music event. The apology, posted on Instagram, came after police issued a notice requiring Nigam to appear for investigation.

The court observed the prosecution has proved the crime was committed by the accused in the building’s elevator when the victim was 10 years old.

The Centre has asked 244 districts to conduct a drill on May 7 to test wartime standard operating procedure (SOP) and measures.
