The development comes almost two weeks after a CFI-led protest forced the Srinivas College of Pharmacy, located at Valacchil on the outskirts of the city to withdraw its decision to ban hijab for new batch of students.

At least five persons were hospitalized after the unexpected laticharge on the premises of the police station. College students Hifaz and Muzammil, who suffered injuries during lathicharge were taken to Government Wenlcok Hospital. On the other hand, Sub Inspector Sudhakar and two constables-Chandra Shekhar and Vincent-also got admitted to the hospital, claiming that they were attacked by the CFI activists.

Led by CFI Dakshina Kannada district president Mohammed Athaullah, around 15 activists had been to the police station along with a copy of memorandum.

“We neither staged a protest nor raised slogans. Our intention was just to handover a memorandum to the police requesting them to drop the false ragging case' registered against a few students,” said one of the CFI activists, adding that the complainants have also admitted that their principal had forced them to do so.

He claimed that the authorities of Srinivas College of Pharmacy took revenge against the CFI activists for protesting hajab ban two weeks ago. “In fact all students of the college are united. However, recently the principal forced a few first year Bachelor of Pharmacy students to lodge ragging complaint against their seniors who had taken part in the last protest,” he said.

“Those who are facing ragging charge are innocent students. Being a student organisation, CFI raised its voice for them and will continue to do so,” he said, and added that the attempt to curb the students' movement will not succeed.

Mohan ABVP rightly said .... ABVP will not tolerate if anyone attacks Police. Because Police men are wearing also Khaki chaddi inside. Police also belongs to them (RSS).

Why the police version is not mentioned in the report? I request CD reporter to be impartial and add the version of police too. one sided story we dont want. We know very well who these guys are.

Three policemen were attacked by CFI terrorists. What the hell other policemen were doing? Why cant they use their guns to finish those who attack policemen?

Dont blame our college for no reason. This case has no link with hijab ban issue. Actually there was no need for a protest two weeks ago. College was ready to withdraw hijab ban if the parents of the students collectively wanted it. CFI just tried to get political milage by staging a protest. And now they are supporting ragging accused. what a shame!

I dont think anyone will lodge false ragging complaint. Something they might have done in the past. the college used the opportunity. CFI wanted to become hero and turned zero.

Very sad. What was the need for the police to cane the CFI activists? They could have accepted the memorandum and throw it into dust bin if the demand was not genuine. Unfortunately this happened within a day after leaders of different community came together for a better mangaluru.

Bengaluru, Jan 14: Assuring depositors that their money was "100 per cent safe" with the bank, Sri Guru Raghavendra Sahakara Bank Chairman K Ramakrishna in Bengaluru on Monday said 62 loans had locked up Rs 300 crore of deposit.

"Your money is 100 per cent safe with Sri Guru Raghavendra Sahakara Bank. It's my responsibility," Ramakrishna said at Sri Guru Narasimha Kalyanamandira auditorium, to assure depositors.

He was addressing angry customers of the bank at a public hearing. Due to the 62 dud loans, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had restricted the lender from executing business, Ramakrishna said amid shouting by depositors. The RBI has limited withdrawals by depositors to Rs 35,000.

"The bank is saying I can't withdraw more than Rs 35,000. In case of our fixed deposit maturing, we will have to renew it as we can't encash it, " said Nagaraj M, 49, who has been dealing with the bank for the past six years.

To assuage customers, the call to an assistant commissioner of police by Bengaluru South MP Tejaswi Surya -- not present -- was relayed on loudspeaker live and the MP claimed that he had spoken to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to help the customers.

Ramakrishna said he would meet customers again on January 19 with all the details and numbers. Dramatic scenes and pandemonium ruled the auditorium before his arrival. Thousands of bank customers threatened to go en masse to the police station and file a case against Ramakrishna.

As he addressed the gathering in Kannada, hundreds of depositors shouted back at him seeking clarifications. At the auditorium, thousands of depositors earlier demanded the bank chairman's presence to clarify the matter.

The lender had invited depositors to the auditorium at 6 p.m. to update them on the bank's status, following a RBI directive restricting the bank from doing business with immediate effect.

"We want the bank's directors here," shouted a depositor from the stage. A handful of policemen were trying to control the crowd and bring order to the assembly. Many elderly and retired persons had arrived to know the fate of their savings. Several women were also present at the meeting.

"It was a good bank with only 0.5 per cent NPAs. Now we can't trust any bank. See what happened with the PMC Bank," said another customer.

Shankar Sharma, 38, an employee of a private company, said majority of depositors were senior citizens and retirees. "I don't have an account with the bank, but my mother, uncle, aunt have deposited money in it. I came for them, " said Sharma. He said many of the bank's 35,000 clientele deposited more than Rs 5 lakh, which had total deposits of Rs 1,600 crore. The bank started operations in 1999.

Ramakrishna was escorted away to safety by the police after his speech even as the depositors were screaming and agitating for justice.
