Mangaluru, Jun 22: The Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah, who will be touring Karnataka for three days from August 3 may visit the communally sensitive areas of Dakshina Kannada district too, a local leader of the party said on condition of anonymity.shah

Entire Bantwal taluk is reeling under prohibitory orders under Section 144 of CrPC for almost past one month thanks to the communal tensions erupted after the sporadic incidents of stabbing and stone pelting in areas like Kalladka. The murder of SDPI activist Ashraf Kalai in Benjanapadavu village on June 21 has worsened the situation in the taluk.

The Sangh Parivar has been demanding the release of the accused belonging to saffron outfits arrested in connection with the recent communal clashes in Kalladka. Hindutva groups had also planned a massive protest in Bantwal taluk on June 24.

The political activities also have gained momentum in the taluk as BJP has formally extended complete support the protest aimed targeting Congress leader and district in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai. However, the extension prohibitory orders in four taluks of Dakshina Kannada district till June 27 may force the saffron groups to postpone the protest.

If sources are to be believed, the district BJP has planned to continue to pressurize Mr Rai till 2018 Karnataka polls. As part of this plan, the state BJP leadership may ask Mr Shah to pay a visit to Bantwal taluk.

During his Karnataka visit, Mr Shah will interact with BJP office-bearers, MPs and MLAs to get a feedback on the organisational issues and preparedness for the Assembly elections. The BJP is also keen on doing well in Karnataka, keeping the 2019 Lok Sabha elections in mind.

Bengaluru, Mar 2: Killing an Indian porcupine and inviting his TikTok followers to view it proved costly for a 25-year-old man from Kalaburagi. Forest department officials tracked him down and arrested him on Sunday morning.

Manjunath Biryalhissa, a resident of Jewargi taluk, was famous for his various TikTok videos and for lifting heavy stones in his village and neighbouring areas.

According to forest officials, on Friday, Manjunath and his friends caught a porcupine in Sindagi range, Vijayapura and stoned it to death. Later, they fried and cooked it. Manjunath then made an 18-second video, where he spoke about the porcupine hunt and slaughter, besides inviting his followers to like the video and join him in the feast.

The video was on TikTok and Facebook. Wildlife activists who found the video alerted forest department officials.

“Porcupine comes under schedule four of the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972. Keeping this video as evidence we were able to trace him through his Facebook account, where he had shared details of his hometown,” said forest officials.
