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

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.

Koppal, Jun 3: Opposition Leader in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said that allegedly there was deep crisis in the state BJP but categorically denied any role of Congress in it.

Addressing a press conference here, the former Chief Minister said 'I and my party have nothing to do with the developments in the ruling party. I came to know through media that some 25 BJP MLAs allegedly not satisfied with the way of functioning of the government. The Congress party is not interested in what is happenings in BJP and if the government falls on its own, then Congress might stake claim to form the government eventually".

Mr Siddaramaiah alleged that the State’s BJP government was trying to 'subvert the Constitution and Panchayat Raj Laws' by postponing election to Gram Panchayats citing spread of COVID-19.

'The Commission has not provided any information so far about the preparation of electoral rolls, fixing of reservation to seats, and calendar of events for holding elections. It is the duty of the Commission to hold elections as per the Karnataka Gram Swaraj and Panchayat Raj Act,' he further said.

The EC on May 28 postponed elections to GPs citing 'exceptional circumstances' prevailing in Karnataka following the coronavirus pandemic situation. Elections to as many as 5,800 GPs scheduled to be held by next month with the ending of their terms have been put off, and fresh dates were yet to be announced.
