The viral videos have given rise to suspicion that Saturday's stone pelting in BC Road was a pre-planned act by trouble mongers.

Thousands of Hindutva activists and over one hundred vehicles took part in the funeral procession of 28-year-old Sharath, who breathed his last at a hospital in Mangaluru last evening three days after he was stabbed by unidentified miscreants in B C Road.

The mortal remains were taken through procession to Sajipa Munnur village in Bantwal taluk, the home town of the victim. However, the Sangh Parivar had planned to keep the mortal remains in front of BJP office in BC Road for sometimes and stage a massive protest for second consecutive day in violation of prohibitory orders.

When the police denied the permission to keep the mortal remains in BC Road and resorted to mild baton charge to disperse the errant mob, the “unknown” miscreants began to pelt stones at shops and vehicles.

According to sources, stones were pelted by some of those who had participated in the procession. Police have taken around a dozen persons into custody following the stone pelting.

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 10: Eight foreign nationals from Italy and United Kingdom, who were undergoing treatment in Kerala, have recovered fully from COVID-19, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said on Thursday.

Of the eight foreign nationals, seven were undergoing treatment at the Ernakulam Medical College Hospital and one in Thiruvananthapuram Medical College Hospital, Vijayan said, adding that some of the patients were in a serious condition.

The seven foreigners from UK, admitted in Ernakulam medical college, were part of the group which had on March 15 tried to leave the country without permission while being under observation at Munnar, a hill station in the state.

New Delhi, Feb 13: Two SpiceJet pilots have been suspended today for an improper landing at Mangalore Airport which damaged three runway edge lights. The incident took place on October 31 last year when the private carrier's Boeing 737 aircraft was returning from Dubai.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) suspended the licenses of the pilots for four-and-half months from the date of the incident.

DGCA had issued a show cause notice to the Pilot in Command and the First Officer demanding explanation of the "lapses" and found their replies unsatisfactory, the aviation watchdog said in a statement.

Investigation revealed that the touchdown was improper as it deviated to the the left on the runway in turn damaging three runway edge lights.
