Bantwal, Jun 21: In spite of the prolonged prohibitory orders and tightened security measures, violence has recurred in Bantwal taluk. This time miscreants have brutally murdered an activist of Social Democratic Party of India at Benjanapadavu village in broad daylight.

The victim has been identified as Mohammed Ashraf (33) a resident of Malluru Kalai and president of the SDPI’s Ammunje unit in Bantwal. He was an auto rickshaw driver by profession.

According to sources, the miscreants attacked Ashraf after he dropped a passenger who had hired his auto rickshaw from Kalai to Karavali Site at Benganapadavu near Kallige on Wednesday morning.murder11

The gang of armed miscreants who came on three motorbikes surrounded Ashraf all of a sudden when he had parked his three-wheeler in front of a house. A helpless Ashraf ran inside a house to save himself from the assailants.

However the miscreants barged into the house and dragged him out before brutally attacking him with lethal weapons. While fleeing, the miscreants have left a sword on the floor of the house.

Earlier in the day Ashraf had participated in SDPI’s flag hoisting ceremony as part of the foundation day of the party at Kalai. Later, he led a shramadan programme at Kalai and filled potholes on the road along with local residents.

The body was shifted to AJ Hospital in Mangaluru for post mortem before handing over to the family members. Dozens of SDPI activists thronged the hospital when the mortal remains were brought the hospital.

The fresh murder has triggered tension across Bantwal taluk. People in Kalladka and Melkar villages of taluk are observing a bandh in protest against the violence.

In the wake of murder, Dakshina Kannada district administration is likely to extend prohibitory orders in Bantwal taluk. As per earlier order, the Section 144 under CrPC ends tonight.

to those who dislike eye for an eye solution, what would you do if he was your blood relative? would your view be the same? wait for the investigation and wait for years and years for justice? People like you will always be around. Justice has to be done right now no matter what.

Bengaluru, Aug 2: All the seven Airports in Karnataka have seen poor traffic even after the restoration of domestic flight services post covid-19 lockdown. Interestingly, Mangaluru International Airport, the second biggest in the state, has slipped to third position in number of number of passengers and flights. 

Of all the seven airports in State-- Bengaluru, Mangaluru, Hubballi, Belagavi, Mysuru, Kalaburagi and Vijaynagara (Hosapete)-- it was the Sambra (Belagavi) airport which saw the highest number of passengers and flights after Bengaluru. 

According to Airports Authority of India report released on their website recently, the Sambra airport outperformed the Managluru international airport in June. 

As many 10,224 passengers travelled to or from Belagavi airport in June, whereas Mangaluru airport saw a footfall of only 8,608 passengers including 3,726 international and 4,882 domestic passengers. Belagavi airport handled 391 flights whereas Mangaluru airport handled 190 flights.

Even the Bengaluru international airport saw a decline in the number of passengers and flights in June. Only 3.69 lakh domestic and 10,654 international passengers arrived or departed from Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru in June as against 27.59 lakh total passengers in June 2019. 

Between April-June 2020 the Bengaluru airport saw only 4.54 lakh total passengers (domestic and international) as against 84.11 lakh total passenger during the same period last year. The number of flights to and from Bengaluru also saw a huge dip in June with only 731 international (2,582 in June 2019) and 4290 domestic (16,216 in June 2019) flights.

Though the Mysuru domestic airport handled a higher number of flights compared to last June, the number of passengers either arriving or departing saw a decline. Last year June 4,775 passengers travelled in 96 flights, whereas in June 2020 the airport handled 3,158 passengers and 330 flights.

Hubballi airport saw the least number of passengers or flights among the seven airports in Karnataka in June. It saw only 55 passengers either arriving or departing from the city's airport in 14 flights in the month of June.

Bengaluru, Feb 8: The BJP on Saturday drew flak on Twitter for taking a swipe at Muslim women who appear to be standing in a line to vote in Delhi's assembly polls. ""Kaagaz Nahi Dikayenge Hum" ! ! ! Keep the documents safe, you will need to show them again during NPR exercise (sic)," the party's Karnataka Twitter handle posted using the hashtag #DelhiPolls2020. 

The video, which appears to have been taken from one of the polling booths in Delhi on Saturday, shows burqa-clad women flashing their voter ID cards. While the threatening tone of the tweet is unmissable, the tweet contradicts the government's statement that no person needs to submit any documents during the house-to-house survey for updating the National Population Register (NPR) and that information provided by individuals would be accepted and recorded. 

The tweet has added to the prevailing confusion regarding the NPR exercise in the country. 

The NPR is a list of "usual residents" of the country. In 2010, the data for NPR was collected along with the house-listing phase of the Census of India 2011. The data was updated in 2015 by conducting a door-to-door survey.

Currently, it has been decided to update the NPR along with the house-listing phase of Census 2021 during April to September 2020 in all the states/union territories except Assam.

Most of the opposition parties see NPR as a prelude to the contentious National Register of Citizens (NRC), which has been opposed by even NDA allies like the JD(U). The NPR questionnaire asked details like the birthplace of parents. In combination with the recently amended citizenship law, protesters fear that the registry might be eventually used for NRC. 

As a result, people, predominantly Muslims, have hit the streets as India witnesses one of the most widespread civilian unrest of recent times.
