Mangaluru, Feb 24: In the wake of arson attack against the office of Communist Party of India (Marxist) at Thokkottu in Mangaluru taluk and hartal call by saffron outfits against Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s city visit on February 25, B Ramanath Rai, Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister has urged the district administration and police department to be ruthless towards those who disturb peace.

Addressing media persons here on Friday, Mr Rai said that Sangh Parivar should not forget the fact that Vijayan is a democratically elected chief minister of a state. “Politically we may be from two different parties. But, we cannot bar a neighboring state’s CM’s entry to the city. As a district in-charge minister, I condemn the statements of Sangh Parivar and BJP, who called for bundh against Kerala CM's visit, " he said.

“I have directed the district administration and the police to take all necessary precautions to ensure smooth conduct of the rally of the CPI(M) and also to take stringent action against those try to breach peace in Mangaluru and other parts of the coastal district,” he said.

Meanwhile, veteran Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary too pitched in to express his moral support to the rally to be addressed by Kerala CM. Poojary said the Sangh Parivar and BJP have been challenging the Supreme Court's directives by giving bandh call. "Dishonouring Supreme Court's directive is equal to dishonouring of the nation," Poojary added.

Mangaluru, May 8: Migrant workers, stranded in Karnataka due to lockdown, staged a protest on Friday at the Central Railway Station here, demanding to be sent back to their respective native places.

The workers demanded the state government to take measures and send them back to their homes.

Maintaining social distancing and covering their faces with masks, the workers were holding placards which read -- "We want to go home Jharkhand, We want justice and we want to go home."

They appealed to the state government to arrange trains and buses to ferry them to their native places and threatened to walk home if denied transport.

Several protests have erupted in different parts of the country, such as Andhra Pradesh and Kerala, as stranded labourers took to the roads demanding to be sent back home.

The Ministry of Home Affairs on May 1 had issued an order to extend the ongoing lockdown by two more weeks from May 4 with some relaxations.
