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.

Bengaluru, Jun 27: Marijuana or ganja as it is known locally, has emerged as the most peddled and seized drug in Karnataka in the first six months of 2020, a police officer has said, commemorating the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking.

"As many as 510 ganja cases have been registered, leading to the seizure of 312 kg of ganja in 2020," Central Crime Branch (CCB) Deputy Commissioner of Police Kuldeep Jain told media perrsons on Friday.

Cases and seizures of other drugs paled in comparison to Marijuana. Only one case each has been registered on Brown Sugar, Opium and other drug forms.

Hashish was the only other seized narcotic which weighed more than a kg at 17 kg, rest all were under a kg.

Other banned substances included charas, cocaine and MDMA.

Police also seized 91 papers of LSD and 550 tablets belonging to the Yaba, Restyl, Anxit and Nitrosun category of drugs.

Similarly, 781 Indians and 14 foreigners have been arrested in the drugs cases.

Karnataka Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai, Director General of Police Praveen Sood and Bengaluru Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao were among the officials who commemorated the event which recognised police staff who cracked drug cases.

"Bommai reaffirmed the pledge to fight against drugs and continue the policy of zero tolerance (of drug abuse)," Joint Commissioner of Police Sandeep Patil said.

Police showcased the seized haul of drugs to Bommai in the past one year, and the minister later rewarded the policemen involved in cracking the drugs cases in Karnataka.

Bommai and the police officials took a pledge to fight drugs on the occasion.

"The Karnataka police has been taking strict action against the drug peddlers while at the same time creating awareness among youth," added JCP Sandeep Patil.

Police also roped in celebrities such as Milana Nagaraj, Darling Krishna and former cricketer Anil Kumble to send across a social message to give up drugs.
