As part of its campaign for upcoming Assembly elections, the Karnataka state unit of Bharatiya Janata Party will be organising a ‘Suraksha Yatra' in Coastal and Malnad regions from March 3 to 6.

The party leaders will take out padayatra from two places -- Kushalnagar in Kodagu district and Ankola in Uttara Kannada district. Both the yatras will culminate in a rally at Suratkal in Dakshina Kannada on March 6, which will be addressed by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, party MP and state general secretary Shobha Karandlaje told reporters here on Wednesday.

She said there is an atmosphere of fear in the region following the recent communal tension. The yatra is aimed at instilling a sense of peace and security among both the Hindu and the Muslim communities. The yatra would not hurt the sentiments of any particular community, neither would it provoke communalism, she added.

While Union Minister D V Sadananda Gowda is scheduled to inaugurate the yatra from Kushalnagar, his ministerial colleague Anantkumar Hegde is scheduled to flag off the other yatra from Ankola on the same day, she added.

The idea is to take out a padayatra in cities and bike rallies in other parts. Both the teams will traverse through Kodagu, Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts before converging at Suratkal on March 6.

Before the padayatra, BJP national president Amit Shah will tour the coastal districts from February 20.

Mangaluru, Feb 25: Notorious gangster Ravi Poojary,

who has been extradited to India from Senegal, has 34 cases registered against him within the city police commissionerate.

Now in Bengaluru police custody for interrogation in connection with several cases there, Poojary faces cases relating to murder, murder attempt, extortion and threat calls in the city, police sources said.

Sources said the city police are trying to get Pujari for interrogation though it would take a while as the court has allowed Bengaluru police to keep him in custody for questioning and evidence taking for 15 days.

Most of the cases in the city against him, 28 of them, are in connection with threat calls.

He had allegedly made threat calls in 2015 to the then state ministers B Ramanath Rai and Abhayachandra Jain, demanding immediate arrest of the accused in the murder of Bajrang Dal worker Prashanth Poojary.

All the cases against Poojary in the city were registered between 2007 and 2018.

Cases involving murder, death threats and shootouts are among the cases to be investigated, the sources said.

A total of 28 cases of death threat calls, one of murder, three of shootouts, one of abduction and a case of funding his associates lodged in prison are the crimes being probed by the city police.

The cases are now pending in courts at different stages of trial.

Cases of making threat calls to businessmen using his associates demanding protection money have been registered at Moodbidri, Kavoor, Kadri, Konaje, Barke and Urwa police stations.

Some of his associates were imprisoned in 2012 in connection with threat calls to a businessman from Kinnigoli.

The case relating to providing them money while in prison was also registered in the same year.

Pujari, wanted in many cases including extortion and murder in different parts of the country, including Karnataka and who had been on the run for over 15 years, was deported to Senegal following his arrest and later extradited

He had jumped bail in Senegal last year after being arrested there.
