As a MP his duty is to take care of the citizen I/O that he still is standing with his old low grade showing rowdism. No need to wait for any judicial advise. Dept must book him non bailable case. Being a MP and behaving like a Desh Drohi he has no right to enter to our respectful parliament house.
This is the right time all peace loving Mangaloreans stand together and demand his resignation n send him behind bar at least for 5years period.
Then u see no pumpwell satyajith or puranik will open their mouth with communal speech.
Jai Hind!

Shivamogga, Jun 30: The organic farmers' market in Shivamogga in Karnataka has seen a rise in the demand for organic fruits and vegetables in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Residents of nearby areas frequently visit the market to get fresh produce.

According to Sridhar, a farmer who sells his produce in the market, the demand for organic fruits and vegetables was very low before the coronavirus outbreak.

"I have been involved in organic farming for the last two decades but there was no real market. Since these days everyone is trying to boost their immunity, we are getting a lot of positive response from the locals," he told news agency.

Sridhar and other farmers come from villages near the city. They are authentic organic farmers under the Vikas Trust and Savayava Krishi Parivar, a federation of organic farmer's families based in Karnataka, and they promote pesticide and fertiliser free agriculture.

Gurumel Singh, who often comes to the local market said, "My family has started eating more organic fruits and vegetable now because of the pandemic. We have been told it is important to take care of our health and organic fruits and vegetables are good immunity boosters. The fruits I buy from the organic market are also much sweeter than the ones I get elsewhere."
