Madinha, Jul 5: The security forces of Saudi Arabia have proved their competency, dedication and commitment by sacrificing their own lives to foil the plot of dreaded terrorists in the Islamic kingdom. In two separate incidents on Monday, the security forces prevented the suicide bombers from entering the Prophet's Mosque in Madinah and US consulate in Jeddah.

At least four Saudi security force members were killed and five wounded, when a suicide bomber, who was prevented from entering the Prophet's Mosque, Al-Haram Al-Nabawi, regarded as one of Islam's holiest sites, blew himself up.

“With Maghreb prayer drawing near on Monday in Madinah, security men suspected a man who was walking towards the Prophet's Mosque across an open area that is being used as a parking lot for visitors. When they tried to stop him, he blew himself up resulting in his death and the martyrdom of four security men. Meanwhile, five other security men were injured. May they recover quickly,”said Maj. Gen. Mansour Al-Turki, security spokesman of the Ministry of Interior.

Al Arabiya News Channel's correspondent said the suicide bombing took place near a security building parking lot between the city courtyard and the mosque, visited by millions every year.

The attack took place during Maghreb prayers, the time when Muslims break their fast during the holy month of Ramadan. The channel showed images of fire raging in a parking lot with at least one body seen nearby. The suicide bomber also died in the attack.

Before that at 2:15 a.m., a suicide bomber blew himself up near the US Consulate in Jeddah. Security officers endangered their lives and confronted him as he moved suspiciously at a parking lot of the Dr. Soliman Fakeih Hospital. It is learnt that the bomber's intention was to barge into the Consulate and kill maximum people. At least two policemen were wounded lightly in the attack.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: The National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), which met with officials of the Social Welfare Department Thursday, has urged the state government to increase the reservation provided to the ST community.

The Commission's suggestion comes even as a committee headed by Justice Nagamohan Das is currently studying a demand for increase of reservation for the community from the existing 3% to 7.5%.

Addressing mediapersons on Thursday, Commission Chairperson Nand Kumar Sai, said the Commission had discussed the issue with the Social Welfare Department, Karnataka, asking officials to expedite the process.

In response to this suggestion, Social Welfare Department Principal Secretary G Kumar Naik said the government would take a call based on the Nagamohan Das Committee's report.

A meeting was held between members of the National ST Commission and the Social Welfare Department Thursday with regard to various projects taken up by the department.

In June last year, the then Kumaraswamy-led coalition government constituted the Justice Nagamohan Das Committee, after protests from members of the Valmiki community for an increase in reservation to 7.5%. At present, Karnataka provides 15% reservation for SCs, 3% for STs and 32% for other backward classes (OBC).

The national commission also urged the state government to ensure permanent faculty in all the 824 residential institutions run by the department. At present, as much as 50% of the faculty in these institutions have been hired on a contractual basis. "We have assured that the recruitment will be done in a short time," Naik told mediapersons.
