Mangaluru, Aug 25: In spite of the massive hate-campaign against actor-turned-politician Ramya by saffron forces, thousands of her fans thronged Kadri grounds in the city where she was the chief guest for a musical event organized by the Kadri Cricketers' Club as part of Krishna Janmashtami celebrations on Thursday night.

Addressing the gathering, the former Mandya MP thanked the people of Manglauru for their love and hospitality and described them as “very sweet people”.

Ms Ramya, who was wearing Mangaluru jasmine, impressed the crowed by uttering a few words in Tulu, the local language of this port city. She went on to claim that people of Mangaluru treated her like their own daughter.

Meanwhile, a few miscreants owning allegiance to saffron groups hurled eggs, stones and footwear at the stage where Ramya was sitting. However, police managed to bring the situation under control and reportedly detained a couple of miscreants.

Forest minister B Ramanath Ra, food minister U T Khader, MLC Ivan D'Souza among others attend the event. However, Ms Ramya was not allowed to take part in Mosaru Kudike due to security reasons, it is learnt.

Prior to this a small group of protesters belonging to Sangh Parivar attempted to block Ramya's convoy at the exit road of the Mangaluru International Airport. They also hurled eggs at the convoy when she was coming out of the Airport.

Meanwhile, speaking to media persons Ms Ramya rubbished the allegations that she compared Mangaluru to hell. She said that media is quoting her out of context.

In the interview, she had said that if a region can be called hell' just because bad things such as murder happen there you can find hell in Mangaluru too where many murders took place. She also recalled the murder of Praveen Poojary, a BJP worker who was targeted by Hindu vigilantes for being involved in transporting cattle.

She was arguing that a place or country should not be called as hell' just because of the presence of some anti-social elements there. “I haven't seen hell,” she said.

Mangaluru, Mar 30: In continuing cases of tipplers in the southern states ending their lives due to non-availability of liquor during the lockdown, two men committed suicide in Karnataka's Dakshina Kannada district.

The two suicides were reported in Kadaba taluk on Saturday, police said.

Tomy Thomas (50), a rubber tapping labourer in an estate at Kutrupadi village of the taluk, was found hanging at his rented house on Saturday. Thomas, a native of Kottayam in Kerala, had joined at the estate here a month ago.

Local people said he was desperately moving around in the last few days asking about places where he can get liquor. He had also not reported to work in these days. The body has been kept at the mortuary of a hospital at Deralakatte.

In another incident, a 70-year old man, belonging to Kodimbala village in the taluk, allegedly hanged himself from the branch of a tree near his house at Nakur.

The deceased has been identified as Thomas, who had left his family here 30 years ago and had been working in Kerala. He had returned here only a few years back.

Sources said Thomas, an alcohol addict, was having health problems related to withdrawal. He has been living on pavements at Kadaba without going home.

Kadaba police has registered cases in connection with the two incidents.

Incidents of tipplers committing suicide have been reported in Kerala and Telangana in the past few days. Two men ended their lives in Kerala today while a 50-year old daily wage worker jumped to death from a building in Hyderabad on Friday.
