The incident took place in front of Circuit House, when Mr Shah, who arrived in the city early morning, was taking rest inside amidst tight security.

Led by Mithun Rai, the Dakshina Kannada district unit president of the Youth Congress, the activists raised slogans against Mr Shah and called him a terrorist.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr Rai said that that BJP chief was responsible for several communal riots that claimed lives of innocent human beings across the country.

“BJP is a party of hypocrites. They promise something and do something else. They preach something and practice something else,” he said, recalling the recent case of cow vigilantism in Udupi, wherein a BJP worker was killed by Hindutva activists for allegedly trafficking cows.

“People in Dakshina Kannada want peace. Amit Shah has come here to disrupt peace,” said another protestor and added that the BJP was trying to hijack national flag by calling their ill-intended rally as Tiranga Yatra.

“BJP has no connection with freedom movement. In fact RSS supported British when the Congress was fighting for India's freedom. Saffron terrorist killed Mahatma Gandhi too,” he said.

When the crowd began to grow bigger, the police surrounded the protestors and detained all of them. They were taken to Urwa Police Station in two buses. Interestingly, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's former fan, Sudatta Jain Shirthady was also among the protestors.

Bengaluru, Mar 15: The week-long ban imposed by the Karnataka Government from Saturday is yet to get a total response in the State to fight against the spread of killer disease Coronavirus (COVID-19).

The ban has witnessed a considerable reduction in the travelling public by Bus and train. Bus terminal and Railway stations wore desert look or only a very few public travelling. KSRTC, which was maintaining service for every 10 minutes once between the State Capital and to City of Palaces, was forced to cancel most of the service due to very little patronage. 

"We were left with no option but to cancel the fleet since there are no passengers," sources at the KSRTC Bus terminal told media persons.

Mangaluru, Aug 4: The Kasaragod district administration has decided to restore the e-pass system for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru amid covid-19 crisis. 

As covid-19 cases began to increase in Dakshina Kannada, the Kasargod district administration had unilaterally newly introduced of daily pass system on July 6 for entry and exit from Talapady border. This had inconvenienced hundreds of employees, who visited Mangaluru daily to eke a living. 

The decision to resume the pass system was taken in a video conference of Kerala Revenue Minister Chandrasekharan with officials and elected representatives on August 3.

The minister said the Kasaragod district administration will resume issuing of passes for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru. But they should undergo rapid antigen test for every week to renew their passes.

"Similarly, one-time interstate passes will be issued for those who want to take part in marriages, funeral and other functions in both states. Even they should undergo antigen test after returning from the functions,” the minister added.

As per the previous order, daily commuters, especially employees, had to stay in Mangaluru for 28 days before returning to Kasargod. Later, Kerala government relaxed rules on July 23 allowing only bank employees from Kasaragod to travel daily in their private vehicles to their workplace in Dakshina Kannada.

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 28: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has sought Prime Minister Narendra Modi's intervention to remove the blocking of roads including state highway along the border of Karnataka in view of lock down to contain the spread of COVID-19.

In a letter sent to the Prime Minister on Friday evening, the Chief Minister said certain actions by the Karnataka Police have resulted in the blocking the Thalassery-Coorg State Highway-30. This road connects Kerala with Coorg in Karnataka via Veerajapettah. This route is a lifeline for flow of essential commodities to Kerala."

"If this is blocked, vehicles carrying essential commodities will have to travel a much longer route to reach our state. Given the situation of national lock down, this will add much more hardship to people," it said.

"You will naturally agree with me that no action impeding the movement of essential commodities should be initiated at this moment of crisis," he hoped.
