Mangaluru, Apr 27: In spite of the increase in the number of cases of murders, murder bids and communal clashes under its jurisdiction, the Ullal police station remained headless for over four months now.

Inspector Savitra Teja was abruptly shunted out of Ullal station four months ago for unknown reasons. Even though the inspector of Panambur police station is currently in-charge of the Ullal police station, it is yet to get a full-time station house officer.

Several communally sensitive and crime prone-areas such as Ullal, Thokkottu, Mogaveerapatna fall under the limits of this police station.

There are two sub-inspectors in the station — one each for law and order, and crime. But, in their absence, routine functions of the police station get hampered. From public point of view, the number of unsolved crimes is piling up.

Replying to the queries of media persons at a press conference on Wednesday in his office, Mangaluru City Police Commissioner M Chadra Sekhar, said that he was not in a position to answer why the station remained headless for a long time.

He, however, said that a proposal had already been sent to the state government for the filling of the vacant posts in different police stations under his commissionerate.

Meanwhile, in the wake of recent stabbing incidents under the Ullal police station limits, additional forces, including 10 KSRP platoons, 5 ASPs, 8 inspectors, 6 SIs, 10 ASIs and 260 police personnel, have been temporarily deployed in the area.

Ironically, Ullal is the hometown of UT Khader, the Mangaluru MLA and Minister for Health and Family Welfare.

My friend Subbu Kotian says aggression in Muslims, aggression not in the entire Islam it is indeed in Hinduism that is why everyday number of suicide cases, murders of own people and fights in the influence of alcohol find in Hinduism. so if you study Islam you will know how great community is this, those who attracted they join Islam without any second thought now the days there are lot of incidents of joining Islam, people more and more attract Islam because there is a difference between create ad creator.

Subbu Kottia, It is fact that ullal is strong base of Congress. So Sanghis tries to get back the seat by creating the tension atmosphere in the region.

It is better you to leave the place. If such of your mentality people vacated, then the region will be most safe.

Wherever there is majority of Muslim population there is communalism. this is neither exaggeration nor generalization. The reason for this is that the number of uneducated is more among Muslims. If the district administration takes necessary steps to shift at least 5,000 Muslims from Ullal to regions like Bayalu Seeme this place will be peaceful.

Kotian, Khader is a good person and a minister...these criminals more or less trying to create problems for him rather Muslims....

Mangaluru, June 21: A gang of miscreants intercepted a goods auto-rickshaw which was legally transporting beef from an abattoir to market and attacked its driver in heart of the city this morning. 

The attack comes exactly a week after a gang of Bajrang Dal miscreants thrashed a cattle trader at Urwa while legally transporting four buffalos to Kudroli abattoir on June 13.

Today, a person identified as Abdul Rasheed was transporting around 200 kilograms of beef from Kudroli abattoir to Kankanady market.

Meanwhile, miscreants began to chase beef laden vehicle and managed to waylay it near Highland Hospital. They thrashed Abdul Rasheed and poured kerosene on the beef besides damaging the vehicle. 

The miscreants fled in their car and motorbikes after passersby began to gather.

Dear DC Dr. Harsha, we want to know if you will take strict action on these anti nationals / rowdis / day robbers / terrorists who ransacked auto + beaten the auto driwer and stolen Rs. 10,000 from him though he was legally transporting the meat.   They same terrorists are involved in transporting live animals to beef export houses in Gujrat owned by Brahmins / Jains.   Will you be loyal to your duty and promise.   We will see how you will handle the issue failing which you will lose our respect and we will consider you as a dramabaz and phenku.   You should follow the law and treat everyone equally.  There should not be any pity on goondas/ terrorists belonging to sangh parivar.   The terrorists who thrashed the auto driver and damaged the auto and burnt the meat by pouring kerosene are not human beings and should be treated as anti nationals + terrorists.    We hope you will discharge your duty as per the oath taken by you while accepting your post.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Wednesday urged Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa to waive all property taxes in urban local and rural panchayats for a period of one year as citizens are bearing a huge financial brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Taking to Twitter, Shivakumar wrote, "Citizens are bearing a huge financial brunt of the Corona Pandemic. It's imperative on the government to ease the financial burden on citizens. I urge CM B.S. Yediyurappa to waive all property taxes, in urban local bodies and rural panchayats, for a period of one year on humanitarian grounds."
In yet another demand, Shivakumar on Tuesday said the state government should give details of the amount it spent on migrants and labourers during the coronavirus crisis if it is transparent.

"The image of Karnataka has come to a very rotten position. We all know that Karnataka has failed in sorting out the problem. Let them (the state government) tell what has been the amount spent on the labour, migrants and food kits on the health department. We want an account (of the expenditure) if they are so transparent," Shivakumar said.

He said the state government should have approached the hospitals for treating COVID-19 patients and if any private hospital refused, a message should have been given that the government would take it over.

He also accused the state government of corruption.
