Even though the Sangh Parivar had said that the protest against Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s visit will be voluntary, instances of forcible closure of shops during the day has been reported. However, none of the affected persons have lodged any complaint with the jurisdictional police so far, police authorities said.

The issue was raised during yesterday’s monthly SC/ST meeting organised by city police where a Dalit community leader complained that notwithstanding strict police vigil, miscreants forcibly closed down shops.

K M Shantharaju, deputy commissioner of police (law and order) who chaired the meeting, said police would initiate action against anyone against whom they receive a complaint to this effect or are able to find direct evidence of people have being coerced to do so.

The leaders said people are wary of lodging a police complaint in such cases lest it antagonizes people and other influential people with whom they interact on a daily basis.

M Sanjeev Patil, deputy commissioner of police (crime and traffic), said as a matter of rule, people may always call the city police control room on 100 in such cases or other instances where local or other miscreants try to browbeat the locals and the personnel from jurisdictional police will initiate action.

Dear Sir, please dont waste time and arrest leaders of Chaddi terrorists who forced to closing of business during the unauthorised bandh called by them. Sangh goondas created mess and forced shop owners to close their businesses which caused loss of crores of rupees to public. These goondas even forced buses and autos from fetching passengers. Leaders of these goonda organisation should be penalised heavily and should be warned of more strict actin in future.

Mangaluru, June 21: A gang of miscreants intercepted a goods auto-rickshaw which was legally transporting beef from an abattoir to market and attacked its driver in heart of the city this morning. 

The attack comes exactly a week after a gang of Bajrang Dal miscreants thrashed a cattle trader at Urwa while legally transporting four buffalos to Kudroli abattoir on June 13.

Today, a person identified as Abdul Rasheed was transporting around 200 kilograms of beef from Kudroli abattoir to Kankanady market.

Meanwhile, miscreants began to chase beef laden vehicle and managed to waylay it near Highland Hospital. They thrashed Abdul Rasheed and poured kerosene on the beef besides damaging the vehicle. 

The miscreants fled in their car and motorbikes after passersby began to gather.

Dear DC Dr. Harsha, we want to know if you will take strict action on these anti nationals / rowdis / day robbers / terrorists who ransacked auto + beaten the auto driwer and stolen Rs. 10,000 from him though he was legally transporting the meat.   They same terrorists are involved in transporting live animals to beef export houses in Gujrat owned by Brahmins / Jains.   Will you be loyal to your duty and promise.   We will see how you will handle the issue failing which you will lose our respect and we will consider you as a dramabaz and phenku.   You should follow the law and treat everyone equally.  There should not be any pity on goondas/ terrorists belonging to sangh parivar.   The terrorists who thrashed the auto driver and damaged the auto and burnt the meat by pouring kerosene are not human beings and should be treated as anti nationals + terrorists.    We hope you will discharge your duty as per the oath taken by you while accepting your post.
