Ullal is hub of ganja mafia and communal gangs; govt doing nothing: SDPI

Mangaluru, May 3: Calling Ullal a hub of ganja addicts and communal miscreants, Social Democratic Party of India has accused the local elected representatives and police department of failing to curb drug mafia and communal gangs in the region.

sdpiAddressing media persons here on Monday Ataullah Jokatte, DK district unit vice president of SDPI, said that drug peddlers and addicts were reason for the most of the untoward incidents in Ullal.

The murder of Raju Kotian, a fisherman on April 12, by a gang of ganja addicts, is proof for this claim, he said.

Mr Jokatte lamented that the government and police did not take necessary measures to protect innocent citizens in the area following the murder of Raju Kotian.

This gave an opportunity for miscreants to carry out a series of attacks on innocent Muslims and one of the victims, Safwan, died in hospital.

Rs 25 lakh compensation

Mr Jokatte said that the government should release Rs 25 lakh compensation each for the families of both Raju Kotian and Safwan, as both were innocents. While Raju was a fisherman, Safwan was a breadwinner of a poor family.

Arrest the masterminds

He said that even though police have managed to arrest a few accused in connection with the recent violence in Ullal, they have not yet arrested all the real culprits and masterminds.

“Along with nabbing those who executed the crimes, the police should also catch the plotters to prevent the recurrence of such untoward incidents,” he said, adding that SDPI will hold a massive protest in the city if the same situation continues.

Nawaz Ullal, general secretary of SDPI,DK, Jaleel K, state advisory council member and Haris Malar were present in the press meet.

Mangaluru, Aug 8: As visuals of the Air India Express flight crash at Kozhikode international airport emerge, one cannot help but be reminded of an eerily similar and unfortunate accident that occurred a decade ago. The August 7, 2020 tragedy brought back memories of the 2010 crash.

It was on May 22, 2010 that an Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight from Dubai to Mangaluru over shot the runway while landing at Bajpe airport and fell into a cliff. Of the 160 passengers and 6 crew members on board, 158 were killed (all crew members and 152 passengers) and only 8 survived.

Even back then, the plane had split into two. The crash has been termed as one of India's worst aviation disasters.

The final conversations between Air traffic control (ATC) and the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication of any distress.

Like the Mangaluru accident, Karipur crash too happened when the flight was attempting to land.

The captain of the aircraft which crashed at Mangaluru, Z Glucia, was an experienced pilot with 10,000 hours of flying experience and had 19 landings at the Mangalore airport. Co-pilot S S Ahluwalia, with 3,000 hours of flying experience had as many as 66 landings at this airport. Both the pilot and co-pilot were among the victims.

An investigation into the accident later found that the cause of the accident was the captain’s failure to discontinue an ‘unstabilised approach’ and his persistence to continue with the landing, despite three calls from the First Officer to ‘go-around’.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Education technology company Byju’s is learnt to have raised $200 million in a funding round from Tiger Global Management, which has valued the Bengaluru-based start-up at around $8 billion, making it the third-largest unicorn (start-up valued over $1 billion) in the country.

With this, the Byju Raveendran-founded company has seen over 50 per cent jump in its valuation in just around nine months. In March 2019, Byju’s was valued $5.4 billion, when it raised around $31 million from General Atlantic, and Chinese investment giant Tencent.

At the current valuation, Byju’s has now replaced home-grown cab-hailing major Ola as the third-largest unicorn, next only to Paytm and OYO, which are valued around $16 billion and $10 billion, respectively.

Byju’s confirmed the transaction through a press statement, though the company declined to share any specific details of the deal. Tiger Global could not be immediately reached for its comments.

“We are happy to partner with a strong investor like Tiger Global Management. They share our sense of purpose and this partnership will advance our long-term vision of creating an impact by changing the way students learn,” said Raveendran. “This partnership is both a validation of the impact created by us so far and a vote of confidence for our long-term vision.”

This is Tiger Global’s first investment in the edutech space in India after Vendantu, an online tutoring platform, where it, along with WestBridge Capital, led a $42-million round in August.

An early backer of India’s internet growth story, the New York-headquartered Tiger Global has been a prolific investor in the Indian start-up space. Its portfolio in the country ranges from consumer focused e-commerce companies that are vital for the growth of the sector, such as Flipkart, Delhivery, Grofers, Quikr and PolicyBazaar, to mention a few.

After tasting success with Flipkart, one of its earliest investments, where it had pumped in around $1 billion, the PE major is now doubling down its focus on the Indian start-up space, under its new investment head Scott Shleifer.

Shleifer, who set up international private equity practice for Tiger Global, is said to be as aggressive deal maker like his predecessor Lee Fixel, who left the investment firm in March. Since then, Tiger has also invested in a host of technology-focused companies in diverse sectors including Ninjacart, CRED, NoBroker and Facilio to mention a few.

“Byju’s has emerged as the leader in the Indian education-tech sector. They are pioneering technology shaping the future of learning for millions of school students in India,” Shleifer was quoted in the press statement issued by the edutech firm.
