Mangaluru, Jul 27: A fresh case of Bajrang Dal’s involvement in the illegal and inhumane transportation of gau maata has surfaced in Karnataka’s coastal district Dakshina Kannada, wherein the saffron outfit is forming ‘Gau Raksha Dal’ to “protect cows”.

Bajrang Dal activist Shashi Kumar Bhat (48), son of Krishna Bhat, a resident of Vittla Padnoor village in Bantwal taluk has been arrested in connection with the illegal cattle transportation along with his aide Abdul Haris (21), son of Mohammed, a resident of Kolnad village in same taluk.

The duo was transporting four cows and a calf in a cruel way when their light commercial was intercepted by a team of police from Vittla police station at Kadambu Junction in Vittla Padnoor village around 11 p.m. last night (July 26). 

The cops seized all five animals and the Ashok Leyland DOST which was being used for illegal transpiration. 

Shashi Kumar Bhat is locally known for his involvement in the activities of Bajrang Dal. He had reportedly taken part in an attack on cattle transporters in the past. Abdul Haris was one of the suspects in a cow theft case reported from Alike village recently. He is also facing a case in Konaje police station.

According to sources, the cows were being transported to a slaughter house. It is learnt that the illegal activity came to light due the internal differences among local Bajrang Dal activists. A bête-noir of Shashi Kumar within Bajrang Dal gave the information of illegal transpiration to the police, sources said. 

Police Sub Inspector H E Nagaraj, constables Abhijit, Lokesh, Ramesh, Rakshit and Raghuram were part of the operation.

Looks like the real cow traffickers are Bajarang dal activist and their followers. They are using Musilm young men as aide so, if they are caught blame it on the Muslim men as the cow trafficers and with the hepl of police the real Hindu cow traffickers escape.

These saffrons are doing all illegal things. They do protest for cow safety and do eat beef in night. If they caught red handed, argue that they ate onions. Eg: K surendran

Bengaluru, Mar 27: A 65-year-old coronavirus patient who died in Karnataka this morning after apparently contracting the infection on a train ride has raised concern about community transmission of the highly contagious disease.
The man, the 60th coronavirus patient in Karnataka, died in Tumakuru. It is not known for certain how he caught the virus. The Karnataka Health Department has posted a notice on Twitter asking whoever travelled with him on train to come forward.

He had no history of recent foreign travel but had apparently traveled to Delhi on March 5 by Sampark Kranti Express and returned on March 11.

On March 7, he arrived at Delhi's Nizamuddin station and participated in an event at Jamia Masjid.

The man took a train back on March 11 and arrived at Yeshwantpur in Bengaluru. From there, he took a bus on March 14 to his hometown Sira.

He first showed symptoms of COVID-19 on March 18 and was taken to a private hospital. He was sent home with medicines but his condition worsened.

On March 23, he was admitted to a district hospital, but checked himself out against all advice and went to a private hospital. When his health showed signs of deterioration, he was again sent to the district hospital, where he tested positive for coronavirus yesterday. He died around 10.30 am today.

The health department has since traced 24 people who came in direct contact with him and are so, in the high-risk category. Thirteen are in hospital and eight have tested negative.

"All passengers who had travelled with him on the train are being traced," K Rakesh Kumar, Deputy Commissioner, Tumakuru, was quoted as telling news agency ANI.

A 70-year old woman and a 76-year old man had died of coronavirus or COVID-19 earlier in Karnataka.

India has over 700 coronavirus cases, including 17 deaths.
