Udupi, Aug 18: Even though many among the cow vigilantes who lynched an alleged cow trafficker to death in Udupi on August 17, did not know the fact that the victim was a BJP worker, those who led the attack knew him very well, reliable sources said.

attackreasonA group of around 30 people owing allegiance to Vishva Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal on Wednesday night attacked Praveen Poojary (29), and his aide Akshay Devadiga (22) near Hebri in Karkala taluk of Udupi district under the pretext of illegal cow transportation.

While Poojary, a known BJP activist in the region, breathed his last at a hospital, Devadiga is recuperating slowly. According to sources, a few among the assailants were waiting for an opportunity to “teach a lesson” to Poojary.

Meanwhile, Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara also said that prima facie cattle trade-related business dispute may be the reason behind the killing of the BJP worker.

"Many of the assailants have been arrested in connection with the incident. Police are suspecting some sort of a cattle trade-related business dispute," he said, adding police have taken up the case.

Noting that he does not see a communal angle to the incident "at this point of time", Parameshwara said "some reason must be there, we will find out". He said.

"... We don't know at this stage, but they are suspecting some sort of a dispute because of the trade, it is not definite, but they are suspecting. Investigation will give us the final picture."

Parameshwara also expressed concern over repeated incidents relating to beef and cattle trade in Karnataka. "We are vigilant; we will definitely try and maintain peace and order. I appeal to the people who are trying to create this kind of disturbance not to do this because we are a tolerant society and we should not create these kinds of issues," he said.

Clash between two terror groups is not a bad development in all ways. It may be useful to establish peace in society.

As far as I know the victim was also a so called gau rakshaks. He used to actively take part in protests and other activities of VHP and BD in Karkala. I think this is purely a case of business dispute.

Yes. They know very well that cow cannot be their mother. They all are partners in illegal cattle transporting, selling and swallowing. Cow is always a handy pretext for them to execute their criminal plans like this.

Kuwait: The Covid-19 pandemic has pushed the whole world into a difficult situation and the situation of Indians in Kuwait is not any different. Many people have lost their jobs, have no salary, are deprived of food and are not able to pay rent. The appalling conditions of labourers, domestic workers, taxi drivers and low waged earners don’t seem to end in Kuwait. 

At this trying situation when many people were even afraid of leaving their houses because of coronavirus, Suresh S. Rao Neramballi, volunteer of the Food Kit Distribution at the ICSG (Indian Community Support Group) has helped many tremendously. He was ready to go around delivering food kits at any time possible by his car. However, after Kuwait imposed a full curfew from 11th May 2020, no one could take out their vehicles unless they had a curfew pass. 

This did not stop Mr. Suresh Neramballi, who then borrowed a bicycle from a friend and ended up going around in the cycle delivering the food kits in curfew break time (4:30pm to 6:30pm) to all those who registered in the ICSG website. This selfless service surely commands appreciation and applause. Mr. Suresh Neramballi has been a light for many families and bachelors in Kuwait and will surely garner the blessings of them who have been able to eat at this time.

He was also the one who could deliver the food kits to many Indian Muslim maids, bachelors, laborers and families previous day and right on the day of EID, as they were not able to go shopping for their groceries for EID, due to the curfew. They blessed him in EID dua. 

Mr. Suresh Neramballi hails from Mangaluru, India and is an Engineer in the Oil sector company in Kuwait. He has been dedicated to social service, achieved 'Aryabhata International Award' for his Kannada Service and Social service, served in many Associations and Distributor of Kannada and Tulu Movies in Kuwait. He wholeheartedly thanks the people and government of Kuwait for his bread and butter.
