Udupi: VHP, Bajrang Dal activists kill BJP worker for transporting cows

August 18, 2016

Udupi, Aug 18: In a shocking incident, a group of miscreants belonging to Vishva Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal beat up a youth to death for involving in illegal cow transportation near Hebri village in Karkala taluk of Udupi district last night.

praveen The miscreants came to know that the ill-fated cow trafficker was also an activist of Bhartiya Janata Party only after the attack.

The BJP activist Praveen Poojary (29), a resident of Kenjur and cattle trader by profession, breathed his last in a hospital, hours after the attack. His aide Akshay Devadiga (22), who was also injured in the attack, is undergoing treatment at a hospital.

The incident occurred at around 7:30 p.m. when Praveen Poojary was loading three cows into a Tata Ace for transportation at Kadike in Santhekatte near Hebri village. Akshay Devadiga was also present.

On receiving the information, nearly 30 VHP and Bajrang Dal activists surrounded the vehicle and attacked Poojary with lethal weapons. Devadiga, who came to his recue, was also assaulted brutally by the miscreants.

The assailants left the spot only after Poojary revealed that he was a BJP worker and had campaigned for the saffron party during last Lok Sabha elections. Though Poojary and Devadiga were rushed to a hospital by local residents, the former breathed his last without responding to any treatment.

Udupi SP KP Balakrishna confirmed to Coastaldigest.com that 18 persons have been arrested for their involvement in the attack. It is learnt that he attack was led by Arvind Sherigar, a VHP member, who runs a petrol bunk.

The Udupi district unit of BJP, which always encouraged the violent acts so of called gau rakshaks, is now in a dilemma as they have killed their own man.

The incident comes days after the Union Home Ministry had cracked the whip on cow vigilantism, asking all states not to tolerate anyone taking law into their hands in the name of protecting cow and to take prompt action against such offenders.

The Home Ministry advisory had come two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked cow vigilantes and asked people to beware of these 'fake' protectors trying to divide the society and the country.

He made these comments after his government and BJP came under attack over incidents of violence against Dalits and Muslims by cow vigilantes in various states including Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.

Gau rakshak becames manau bhakshak

Now it's time to counter attack the fake protectors of gau

Basically these VHP and bajrangi dal morons want cows to walk by themselves to their new owners house. If you take them by truck then they will kill you.

I'm done trying to talk sense about this new brand of religious gundagardi.

hell with this feku gau rakshaks

if this holy animal & holy meat is creating too much of uneasiness in our country please shift to a different place/country, where there are no gau bakshaks....only rakshaks

let them celebrate. they killed a human being & saved the cow
now let them compensate the family of diseased with the cows. he may be the bread earner for his family. due their own goondaism policy killed own guy.

Hindus are spread all around the world. You name a country, they are there. But, do they dare to talk about GauMatha in any country other than India? All their dramas are limited to Indian boundaries. Bahar Dum Nahin nikaltha Hain.

Dear Viren,
Now only God can save your 17 GOW BHAKSHAKS... Shame on you for supporting these terrorists. Family of Praveen poojary will never get their lost Son. Either show your sympathy or get the hell out of here.
Readers are not interested to read your F**king comments.

Hope ABVP will come to street and protest against Killers..!

Viren, you are an worthless, inhuman creature of this entire world....in European countries millions of tons of meat being eaten everyday basis...thousands of butchers serving over there...because of it is their fundamental right to eat what they like...nobody is coming in between it....If you got a guts go and shout and stop them from eating cow meat...they will f**k you...I am sure....

Ha ha Viren.....the guy looked like a Muslim in his bead style...... as stupid they are...they killed him...ha ha....
Don't comment and mock at yourself dear....

This proves that Bajrang Dal, VHP members or other gau rakshaks are not anti-Muslims. they are just protecting the cows. But attacking these helpless pawns not enough. Attack the real anti-national butchers and eliminate them.

Kotian brothers being gow-rakhshak, became gow- bakshak.
Enjoying beef....!

Now Congress/JDS/PFI/SDPI/CPI(M) should stage a massive protest to prove that BJP does not care its own worker's murder if the killer is a Bajrangi

Will BJP state president BS Yeddyurappa give a call for a statewide bandh demanding ban on VHP and BD in protest of killing of his party worker?

Chaddi dirty mindset never change
If they wear pant or nighty!

Unnecessary loss of life.
Remove the Beef ban then there will be no gau rakshaks and there will be no danger to anybody.Is there no justice in this country. Quick action should be taken against the guilty.
Let people eat what they want.
Why blame the State government when this policy being implemented by Centre.

i request govt to give order to police Shoot on Sight for all activists for defame our nation by doing such a things. please this is the best solution for everything. we dont want any self called protector. we all brothers and sisters want to live in peace.

what are mr. parameshwarayya and siddaramayya doing now. they must curb these goondas; we have been listening only warning warning warning but no action till now. now we lost one more life in the hands of rss goondas. now where is abvp and vhp to protest this murder.
now our police make a case against the dead man leaving their 2nd team members of rss.

OH my God......his face appearance cheated the BJP goons..... Sorry Naren, wrong number ....

bajrangdal what are u doing. where are u taking us. killing is easy task for bajrangis now a days.

Bajrangdal and VHP whatever you are doing now is totally wrong. its down grading your mother land. please understand and work to bring good out of india.

because of 1% of hindus we all 99% of hindus are suffering.,

Does Go Maata require human protection if cow is God? Does GO Maata appointed only Sanghis from human to protect her? Does Go Maata require human sacrifices? Does she require human blood only from particular community like Muslims, Dalits, Billawas, Lower caste etc ..??

this is really shocking., i request all hindu brothers to stop the brutality. do something for the nation. this wont lift india to reach the development high.

they cut their own hand, its a lesson for all cow protector.

Modi congratulates RIO medalist Sakshi Mallik along with Udupi's RIOT sanghis who killed cow transporter...!

RIP Martyr Praveen Poojary .... Quick recovery for Akshaya Devadiga.... BJP is tasting its own medicines .....what goes around, will come around.... Let all these arrested 17 persons and other back the scene people are lodged in Andamans for 10 years, then our coastal districts will have peace for EVER.....

have this bajrangdal activists lost their mind? killing people for cow its not justified, if your cow matha has so much power then let her punish the slaughters.

Shocking. really dont understand whether to celebrate or mourn. RIP..

Shun Hindutva, shun hatred or get ready for more violence in future.

Government should ban these two ugly terrorists groups immediately....they are the main reason for creating unrest and unpleasant condition around South Canara.....

Good that Muslims stop eating beef which is unhealthy....

I knew this will definitely happen one day. Bajrangi terrorists have also been imparted arms training... If same situation continues.. wait and watch what will happen in future.

Boda seera. All culprits should be hanged in public.

Hindus who R pro cheddi should start thinking and stop relying on the information fed by the RSS...
RSS teaching is from Zionist and they have phd in deception through out the world... They will not care if u work hard for them or not.. in the end YOU will suffer...
When U have no knowledge of YOUR RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURES , U guys are fooled to believe what YOU are doing now...

WAKE UP guys and study your scriptures and compare it with other religion also ... All the EVIL you are doing is turning on YOU itself. Its not late... THINK individually and start understanding the cheddi ideology which is dumping your own brothers into HELL.

No more lockdown, improving economy is equally important, says Karnataka CM

News Network

June 26,2020

Bengaluru, Jun 26: All efforts would be made to control the spread of coronavirus in the city and there will be no fresh lockdown, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Friday said, asserting that improving economic situation of the state is also equally important.

Though the state capital was considered a model for the entire country in COVID management and has seen a spike in cases during the last few days, the pandemic can be controlled if everyone cooperated, he said.

His remarks come a day after Revenue Minister R Ashoka said Bengaluru is still 'safe' compared to the COVID-19 situation in other cities and states and had ruled out a fresh lockdown for now, putting to rest speculations that it was planning such a move in view of spike in cases.

As of Thursday evening, a total of 1,791 COVID-19 cases, including 78 deaths and 505 discharges, had been reported in the city while the state's tally stood at 10,560 compared to just 3,408 cases as on June 1. The state capital has the highest number of cases among the districts.

"There is no question of imposing lockdown for any reason. In some areas (with high case load) we have already implemented lockdown, other than those places there is no question of it being implemented in other places," Yediyurappa told reporters here.

Improving the economic situation of the state was also equally important, he said ahead of his meeting with Ministers, MLAs and MPs of all parties from Bengaluru to discuss measures to control COVID-19.

"I will discuss with all MLAs including those from opposition and Ministers from Bengaluru and come to some decision. With their cooperation we will make all honest efforts to control the pandemic in Bengaluru," he added.

Earlier, there had been intense speculation after some ministers said the government may have to consider re-imposing the lockdown, eased in phases from the middle of last month, in view of continuing spike in new cases in the past several days. Bengaluru was a "model" to the entire country in COVID management, but in recent days cases have increased, Yediyurappa said, adding to control it cooperation from everyone was necessary.

"I have confidence that if everyone (MLAs) pays special attention in their respective assembly constituency, COVID can be controlled," he said. Meanwhile, official sources said the Chief Minister has given Revenue Minister Ashoka the charge of overseeing the COVID management in the city.

Here's the first phase flight plan for return of Indian nationals stranded abroad

coastaldigest.com news network

May 5,2020

Newsroom, May 5: Following the union government's nod, preparations are afoot to bring back Indian nationals stranded abroad from May 7 onwards.

According to sources, in the first phase from May 7- 14, the government would allow more than 60 “non-scheduled, commercial” flights to operate from about 12 countries to India to bring back 15,000 citizens. At least half of those flights will be from the Gulf region, including UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman, while the rest would bring passengers from the U.S., the U.K., Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Bangladesh.

The flights would be spread over 10 States identified as having the largest numbers to return, with Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Delhi (NCR) receiving the maximum number of flights.

A meeting held at the Ministry of Civil Aviation looked specifically at flights, mainly operated by Air India, while it awaits a final plan from countries where Indians need to be airlifted from. The first flights planned at present are from Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh and Doha, flying directly to Kozhikode and Kochi.

While the full estimate of Indians needing to return home could cross ten lakhs (a million), with more than two lakhs having registered to return from the UAE alone, officials said their return would be “prioritised and staggered”.
