Mangaluru: MLA Mohiuddin Bava snubs road agitators, flies to Saudi Arabia

Mangaluru, Oct 26: The protest against bad condition of Suratkal-Kana-MRPL road turned into anti-Mohiuddin Bava agitation after the Mangaluru North MLA refused to pay heed to the agony of the frustrated residents in his home constituency on Wednesday.

bavaThe activists of Nagarika Horata Samiti, Kana who were staging a protest at Kana junction demanding the immediate repair of the 4.5-km stretch started raising slogans against Mr Bava after he passed through the same junction.

A few days ago when a group of activists belonging to Social Democratic Party of India staged a protest for the same cause, Mr Bava had visited them and listened to their woes.

“We had expected that today he will visit us and endorse the cause of protesters. Astonishingly, he passed through the same road, but refused to stop his car. Instead he sped away,” said Mohammed Ajmal, a local resident.

The protesters did not block Mr Bava's car thinking he would stop. However, he exhibited arrogance. His driver increased the speed of his car all of a sudden, complained Carol Pinto, another local resident.

She also accused Mr Bava of trying to make the bandh a failure by using police. “But, it was a successful bandh. When more number of people joined the protest, police also realised the seriousness of the issue,” she added.

According to sources, Mr Bava went to Mangaluru International Airport, from where he flew to Saudi Arabia. He is supposed to take part in a cultural event of Indian expatriates in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia on Thursday night.

Dear All,

Mr. Bawa came not for enjoying purpose. He came to Riyadh to participate in Beary Sangama Programme. After return to Mangalore he will finish the work pending in Surathkkal. So no one should worry about that.

He is a gentleman. Not like Palemar...

# Vidya, If Palemar was better how he lost last election? Surathkal people will decide what to do and what not to do. Take care yourself at Dubai instead of nose in to non related matters by sitting in Dubai.

Do we really need this kind of politicians? Palemar was million times better than him. Hope people of his constituency will teach him a good lesson in 2018.

Bengaluru, Jan 24: After the visit of fact finding committee members to the spot, the Christian community here decided to submit a report to the state government urging to install a 114-ft. statue of Jesus Christ at Kapala Betta in Kanakapura taluk of Ramanagaram district, Congress MLC Ivan D’souza said here on Thursday.

While talking to media, Mr D’souza said the committee would submit the report to Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa and Revenue Minster R. Ashok and urge the government to construct the statue at the earliest.

The RSS and other BJP outfits have strongly opposed the installation, following which the government ordered suspension of the work. A few days ago, Kalladka Prabhakar, RSS ideologue, took out a rally in Kanakapura opposing the installation.

Mangaluru, June 10: Former minister and Mangaluru MLA U T Khader has hit out at the Karnataka government for what he opined that it is misusing the Epidemic Diseases Act to target opposition parties. 

The statement comes in the backdrop of state government’s move to scuttle oath taking ceremony of KPCC president designate D K Shivakumar.

Asserting that the oath taking will be a grand affair, Mr Khader said that Congress will not be browbeaten by the tactics of the BJP.

Citing the blatant violation of all norms laid down under the Act by minister for health B R Sriramulu at Chitradurga earlier this month, Khader told reporters that the BJP is using the Act for its narrow political gains.

“KPCC has twice deferred swearing in ceremony of Shivakumar after being given the oral go ahead,” Khader claimed, adding the state government must explain to people the issue it has with the Congress organising this function.

Referring to the back-to-back virtual political rallies – one for Bihar and the other for Odisha – on Sunday and Monday that union home minister Amit Shah conducted, Khader wondered if the Act did not apply to the BJP leadership.
