The victim has been identified as Shiny Kiran K, a resident of Ulsoor, and a student of a private pre-university college. The tragedy occurred at around 8:30 p.m. on Thursday on Old Madras road in Indiranagar Traffic police station limits.

According to an eye witness who has lodged a complaint the biker was performing wheelies with Shiny riding pillion. While they were passing Gopalan Mall in front of RMZ, he lost control of the speeding bike and she fell down.

A speeding Canter which was coming behind ran over her. The biker, who escaped with minor injuries, fled on his bike. The locals rushed Shiny to a nearby hospital where she was declared brought dead.

"The biker did not stop the vehicle when the girl fell on the road and the Canter driver also escaped. Traffic came to a halt for some time and the Traffic police who rushed to the spot cleared the way. The CCTV camera in a nearby mall may have captured the tragic incident," an eye witness said.

Indiranagar Traffic police have launched a hunt for the biker. They said they have got the CCTV footage to identity him.

In an effort to prevent road accidents in the cyber city, the Bengaluru police recently said they would crack down on two-wheeler riders who perform dangerous stunts in public areas and on arterial roads.

Madikeri, Feb 23: Back-to-back floods and landslides in the last two years, has led to a fall in the number of tourists coming to the coffee-growing region of Kodagu, forcing the district administration to intervene and take confidence-building measures, telling tourists that Kodagu was safe to visit.

According to the statistics of the Karnataka State Tourism Department, Kodagu recorded a moderately good number of tourists in 2018 and 2019, the years that the district witnessed devastating floods and landslides.

The Department’s statistics reveal that 17 lakh tourists visited Kodagu in 2018 and 18 lakh in 2019. This means the flood-ravaged years did attract tourists contrary to what the stakeholders had claimed.

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
