Mangalore, August 3: Members of the Akhila Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) held a protest in front of the Deputy Commissioner's office in Mangalore on Friday demanding a ban on Popular Front of India (PFI) and Campus Front of India (CFI) organisations.

The students participated in a procession from Jyoti circle to the Deputy Commissioner's office where they held the protest.

Speaking on the occasion Ramesh, State Secretary, ABVP, said that through organisations like CFI, terrorism is growing in college campuses. “The PFI and CFI are nothing but wings of SIMI and are carrying out terrorist activities. They have killed activists of ABVP in Kerala. They are also spoiling the college culture and atmosphere. Through the burqa and scarf issues, they have misguided Muslim girl students”, he said, demanding a ban on the organisations.

Certain college lecturers like Pattabhirama Somayaji expressing support to them is also disheartening, he said.

Mangalore is increasingly becoming a centre of drug mafia. Certain politicians too are behind it. In the name of birthday parties, immoral sexual activities are taking place. Girls should not participate in such parties, Mr. Ramesh said.

Tejas, University College Student Council President, in his address said that members of PFI and CFI are terrorists in the guise of students and accused them of having loyalties towards Pakistan.

Pavithra, another ABVP member, said that organisations like PFI and CFI have contributed in creating conflicts among the students.

Bengaluru, July 20: The Karnataka government has reiterated that no final decision has so far been taken on reopening of schools in the state.

The clarification comes after minutes of the July 15 HRD ministry meeting where Karnataka education department officials said schools are reopening on September 1 went viral on social media. 

“The state government has not decided yet on starting schools. That they will reopen in September was only a general opinion expressed by our officials at the meeting. At present, we have no plans to start schools unless there is a conducive environment. There’s no need for anxiety,” said primary and secondary minister S Suresh Kumar.

Kumar said the government is involved in meeting the education sector’s changed priorities in the current scenario.

The minutes were of a virtual conference on school-safety plans, with representatives of state governments and Union territories expressing views on reopening of schools. 

Against the name of Karnataka, “After September 1” was written. Similar datelines were given by Kerala, Ladakh, Manipur, Rajasthan, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh, while in case of many other states it said “no decision”.

An education department official said Karnataka submitted to MHRD that it will be able to take a decision only after September 1, depending on the situation in the state.
