Karwar, Dec 18: The BJP has dropped plans to hold a protest rally against the death of Paresh Mesta, at Honnavar in Uttara Kannada district on Monday.

As the town was returning to normality after over a week of communal tension, the scheduled BJP rally was expected to lead to another showdown between BJP and the police, who have banned all protests and rallies in the district till December 20.

A BJP spokesperson said that the rally was dropped as the probe into the death of Mesta had been handed over to the CBI.

The post-mortem report of the Paresh Mesta had brushed aside the allegations of BJP that he was tortured to death.

Meanwhile, the Uttara Kannada police have exposed the plot of communal forces to create unrest in the region by spreading false rumours that Muslims tried to kidnap a Hindu school girl.

True face of devil is open now.  BJP tried its best to turn a small issue into disturbance and bring distructin to properties of one community.   thanks God that false idea of anti national bjp is disclosed and people came to know true face of these anti social elements.  I am sure that Mesta death was also master planned by these waste people to create trouble in society.   Well done police for bringing out the truth.   so called leaders of people (MP) who were behind the trouble should be booked for rioting + distruction of property and all the cost should be compensated by them.   Police should be strict on these anti social leaders.

Mangaluru, May 30: Accusing the chief minister B S Yediyurappa led Karnataka government of ignoring frontline warriors against covid-19, Mangaluru MLA U T Khader has demanded immediate release of pending salaries of doctors, lab technicians and nurses hired under the National Health Mission.

Addressing a press conference in the city today, the former minister said that Congress would launch an agitation if the government fails to release the amount immediately.

The non-payment of salaries clearly shows that the government has no concern for the COVID-19 warriors who are serving on a contract basis for two months, he said.

Mr Khader said there are 23,000 personnel hired under the National Health Mission in Karnataka including 600 in Dakshina Kannada district alone.  All of them are waiting for their salaries for the last two months.

“Asha workers were also partially paid for the month of April. If the government had concern towards COVID-19 warriors, they would have paid extra for the doctors, nurses, and other workers who are working tirelessly in the fight against COVID-19 at the grassroots level,” he added.
