Mangaluru, Oct 21: Strongly condemning the attack on a college principal by a degree student in Mangaluru, Association of Mangalore University College Teachers (Amuct) and Catholic Sabha have urged the police to take stringent action against the accused.

condemnPolice have launched a hunt for Mohammed Shahnawaz, a student of Milagres Collge, who went absconding after thrashing Rev Fr Michael Santumayar, the principal of the same college, near his chamber on Thursday for denying him hall ticket on grounds of attendance shortage.

Addressing a press meet in the city on Friday Anil Lobo, President of Catholic Sabha Mangaluru Pradesh, said that the attack on the principal, who is still in the hospital, has created panic among teachers of the institution.

Giving a deadline of three days to Mangaluru city police to nab he accused, he said that if the police failed to catch him by the weekend the Catholic Sabha will close all educational institutions in Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Kasargod districts.

Meanwhile, in a press release, Dr Ummappa Poojary, president of Amuct, said that the Friday's incident has brought shame to the costal district of Dakshina Kannada which is considered as a hub of educational institutions in the country.

“The police should consider the assault case seriously and arrest the culprit immediately,” he said adding that such students may become anti-social elements in future.

Amuct also has also urged the Mangalore University and department of education to give complete freedom to principal and teachers of schools and colleges to control the attendance of students.

This boy who assaulted the Principal should be given the severest punishment - a lesson to all not to think of such crime in their dream also. However, some BORN dirty filthy generation of people brought religion here. These scums forgot what their religion is - Who raped Tulsmi Mata, who kidnapped Rukmini, Who killed Sambhuka, why they push the widow to burning fire, one girl is married to one brother - the rest of male start sharing her why??? Why wife's sister is half wife and husband's brother is half-husband to you - Why do you force Dalit women pray naked? Are you animals or worse than them??

Bengaluru, Jul 31: The Karnataka government on Wednesday put on hold a controversial proposal to drop certain chapters, including on Islam, Christianity, Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali, from social science textbooks to reduce the 2020-21 syllabi for students in classes 1-10.

Citing the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption caused to the academic calendar of the year, the government had earlier dropped the chapter on Tipu Sultan and Hyder Ali from the Class 7 social science textbook, saying chapters on Tipu Sultan have been retained in the Class 6 and 10 textbooks.

The move did not go down well with the opposition, which saw certain ulterior motives behind the decision.

Apparently under sharp criticism, the Department of Public Instruction issued a new notification on Wednesday "on the directions of the Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar".

There is a delay in opening the schools during the academic year 2020-21 due to COVID-19 pandemic, said the latest order.

In this context, the order said, chapters were dropped to fit in 120 days of the academic year for classes 1 to 10 and the same was published in the department's website.

"However, on the directions of the Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, the decision to drop certain chapters has been put on hold. A review will be done following which the deleted chapters will be uploaded in the website," the order read.

Earlier in the day, Mr Kumar had issued a statement, saying that the decision to truncate the syllabus has not been finalised yet. He also made it clear that his department would not remove chapters unnecessarily.

Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah had attacked the government on the issue.

"The government, which has failed to control the spread of coronavirus, is using it as an opportunity to push its clandestine agenda of saffronising the textbooks," Siddaramaiah tweeted.
