Mangaluru, Jul 8: Several video clips that clearly show the “activists” collecting stones in BC Road during Saturday’s funeral procession of murdered RSS activist Sharath Madivala are doing rounds on social media.

The viral videos have given rise to suspicion that Saturday's stone pelting in BC Road was a pre-planned act by trouble mongers.

Thousands of Hindutva activists and over one hundred vehicles took part in the funeral procession of 28-year-old Sharath, who breathed his last at a hospital in Mangaluru last evening three days after he was stabbed by unidentified miscreants in B C Road.

The mortal remains were taken through procession to Sajipa Munnur village in Bantwal taluk, the home town of the victim. However, the Sangh Parivar had planned to keep the mortal remains in front of BJP office in BC Road for sometimes and stage a massive protest for second consecutive day in violation of prohibitory orders.

When the police denied the permission to keep the mortal remains in BC Road and resorted to mild baton charge to disperse the errant mob, the “unknown” miscreants began to pelt stones at shops and vehicles.

According to sources, stones were pelted by some of those who had participated in the procession. Police have taken around a dozen persons into custody following the stone pelting.

Belgaum, Jan 1: Police detained a group of around eight people who were allegedly trying to hoist 'Uttara Karnataka flag' in Hire Bagewadi area here on Wednesday.

This comes amid tensions between Karnataka and neighbouring Maharashtra over the border issue with protests on both sides, which have also led to the cancellation of bus services between the two states.

Protesters in Belagavi burnt an effigy of Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, following which Shiv Sena workers had launched a protest near the Kolhapur bus stand on Sunday, and burnt an effigy of Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa.

The long-standing border dispute between the two states over is pending before the Supreme Court for several years.

On December 7, Thackeray had chaired a high-level meeting over the border dispute between two states. It was decided in the meeting that attempts will be made to get fast track hearing in Supreme Court on the issue.
