With reference to the above, we bring to your kind notice that Karuna Animal Welfare Association of Karnataka, Bangalore was started as BSPCA in 1916 and the name was Changed to Karuna Animal Welfare Association of Karnataka, Bangalore on 2001. Karuna is involved in giving succour to animals in pain and distress and providing shelter to accident, abandoned and orphaned animals. It also educates children and the public through seminars and workshops on humane education and teaches them to be compassionate towards all animals.
The activities of Karuna is herein enclosed with a brochure. Even before the advent of societies for prevention of cruelty to animals by the state government, Karuna was in the forefront giving help to injured animals and propagating animal welfare. Karuna being an NG0, does not receive any assistance either financial or material from the state or the union government nor does it receive any foreign aid. With this background Karuna functions with financial and material help in the form of donations from the philanthropic public. Evincing interest in the functioning of Karuna, the Dharmadhikari of Dharmasthala, Sri.Veerendra Heggade, built an animal shelter for Karuna.
In recent times, seeing the growth of Karuna both in infrastructure and services rendered, several non government organisations and self proclaimed animal Welfare activists and other vested interests are heaping accusations on the functioning of Karuna.
Allegations:1. The organisation is being run on Government land: Answer: As per the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore, land was granted in 1975 and shelter and other buildings were constructed in 1978. This understanding is valid till 2035. This cannot be violated until such date i.e 2035. The property tax of the land and lease amount is being paid annually to the BBMP and the university respectively.
2. Demanding money from people who have come to leave their companion animals at Karuna. Answer: As mentioned above, Karuna does not receive any funds from the authorities concerned. Karuna functions based on the philanthropic donations received from animal lovers and animal owners who use the facilities at the Karuna shelter.
3. Helpless Animal s are being killed brutally at the Karuna animal Shelter: Answer : This allegation is baseless, for a large percentage of animals which come to the Karuna shelter are terminally ill, aged, ferocious and suspected rabies cases. At all times the animals that are sheltered are being given necessary veterinary care 24/7 and are given nutritious food, and sheltered with proper management.
4. Public are not being allowed to visit the animal shelter: Answer: Everyday, animal owners and the public are allowed to visit during stipulated hours. However visits are restricted due to pandemic and zoonotic importance.
As regards the above allegations, the Hon. Government of Karnataka has constituted an enquiry committee to look into and report on 11th August 2021. But the few committee members in the enquiry team who were involved in making the allegations against Karuna are in the enquiry committee constituted by the Hon. Government of Karnataka. Due to this reason we sought the stay to get fair enquiry, the Hon. High court of Karnataka has issued a stay order to the enquiry committee on 7th September 2021.

Imprezz is a business operations software that manages accounting, GST compliant invoicing, inventory, customer data, order processing etc for various industries like services, manufacturing, automobile, and more. What makes Imprezz unique is its Point of Sale (P.O.S) solution on the mobile app with 2,00,000 available product data for grocery and kirana merchants.
The Imprezz software application which is available both on web and as an android app has helped business from diverse industries generate invoices worth ₹ 600 crores from more than 22,000 small and medium businesses. With the launch of its end-to-end Point of Sale (P.O.S) solution on the mobile app, Imprezz promises to be a game changer for the neighbourhood grocery and kirana stores by providing a feature equivalent to a cash register popularly used by the retailers to manage their sales, inventory and customer data. The P.O.S application has been successfully beta tested by over 100 retailers across Bengaluru and Mumbai.
Announcing the group’s plans for India India, Moritz Buhl, Managing Director and CEO, The Buhl Group, said, “We are happy to introduce the P.O.S solution on our flagship product Imprezz for the Indian market. India is one of the largest retail market in the world and yet is unique in that it is characterized by its unorganised retail, primarily kirana stores. The pandemic in the last year has forced retailers to adopt digitisation more than ever before and we feel this is just the right time to offer Imprezz P.O.S to the retail market here. Our test phase in Bangalore has provided us a very positive response and we are looking to scale pan-India soon. We are confident in the leadership spearheaded by our country head Amit and in the team that he has put together for us here”
Amit Mundra, CEO and Country Manager, Buhl Data Service Pvt. Ltd. added, “India was among the few countries world over to show growth in retail sales in 2020. The retail market size in India is expected to grow to 1.7 trillion USD by 2026, according to a report by Statista. Groceries contribute to 65% of India’s retail and more than half of them belong to the unorganised segment – single outlet supermarket and neighbourhood provision stores. Therefore, it is only appropriate for us to target this vertical for Imprezz in the initial phase of its launch in India. We have listed over 200,000 brands on the P.O.S mobile app even as we launch and we hope to expand this to another 500,000 in the next three months. Such a large and comprehensive listing of brands and products and the app’s capability to address inventory management, invoicing, payments and customer profile management and overall supply chain, together make it compelling for retailers to adopt it, making their processes more efficient and their lives easier.”
