The post has been lying vacant ever since Rakshith, who was earlier serving as Commissioner, was appointed as private secretary to Urban Development Minister Yathindra Siddaramaiah. Addressing a press conference in Mysuru on Wednesday (July 15), Mr. Kautilya, who is also the BJP’s OBC Morcha president, said the functioning of MDA, which had been in the news over the alleged scam relating to the 50:50 ratio scheme, has been seriously affected without a Commissioner. He also questioned the allocation of the Urban Development portfolio to Mr. Yathindra in view of the allegations of his family members’ involvement in the scam.

The portfolio can, however, be allocated if their family is cleared of the charges, he said. …

According to the Portuguese news outlet Record, Jorge Jesus is set to be unveiled as the new head coach on Friday — a move that should bring joy to their talisman, Cristiano Ronaldo. Notably, Ronaldo won his first Saudi Pro League title last season — at the fourth time of asking — under the stewardship of Jesus. Ronaldo also played an instrumental role in bringing Jesus, who had already won the league with Al-Hilal previously, to his team, Al-Nassr. At the time of joining, Jesus mentioned that his sole goal was to win trophies for Ronaldo. “When I received the invitation from Jose Semedo (Al-Nassr CEO) and Cris(tiano Ronaldo), I only accepted this challenge to help Cris win titles in Saudi Arabia. That was my purpose. We really want it, for the nation of Al Nassr, and for Cris as well. It’s fundamental. Especially for …
