CAA Protest[edit | edit source]
A massive protest, the largest in North Karnataka, took place in the town of Kalaburagi against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). Around 15,000 people gathered for protest march & came out defying Section 144 notification that was imposed on the entire state of Karnataka. MLA Kaneez Fathima was the major catalyst in mobilising citizens. All local Congress Corporators reportedly came out in support of the protest.[8]
Controversy[edit | edit source]
Kaneez Fatima had purchased 22 acres of agriculture land near Gulbarga. S K Kantha, former minister, had filed a complaint alleging that the purchase was illegal and violated Karnataka Land Reforms Act, 1961. The Act prohibits purchase of agricultural land by any person other than an agriculturist. The Gulbarga tahsildar, in his report to the Assistant Commissioner, stated that Qamarul Islam runs schools and owns commercial complexes and hence the income of Fatima exceeded Rs two lakh per annum. The Assistant Commissioner set aside the purchase of land by Fatima with an observation that the purchaser had violated the provisions of the Karnataka Land Reforms Act. He has directed the tahsildar to take over the land and mention Karnataka Government as the owner of the land.[9]
