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.

Bengaluru, Feb 19: Karnataka Forest Minister Anand Singh on Wednesday said that there was no criminal case filed directly against him.

When asked about PIL filed in the Karnataka High Court against him, Singh told media: "Some lawyer has filed a PIL against me in the High Court. I cannot stop anyone from filing the PIL."

"I have given my criminal record. There is no criminal case directly filed against me. My name is there in some cases but in 'others category'. We will see what happens," he said.

When asked about Congress leader Siddaramaiah's comments criticising him for being given the forest portfolio, Singh said: "I cannot comment on what he said against me as he is a former chief minister and very senior leader."

"Also the opposition always tries to make allegations against me. That is why he criticised me," he said.

Leader of Opposition in Karnataka Assembly Siddaramaiah on Monday demanded that Forest Minister Anand Singh should either be expelled from the ministry or assigned a different portfolio.

A number of cases are pending against Singh including those registered under the Karnataka Forest Act.
