July 11, 2017

Bantwal, Jul 11: Even though the trouble hit areas of Dakshina Kannada are slowly returning to normalcy, the district administration has decided to extend the prohibitory orders for 10 more days in four taluks.bc road 1

As per the previous order of the district administration, the Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code will be ended at midnight on July 11 in Bantwal, Sullia, Puttur and Belthangady taluks that fall under the limits of Dakshina Kannada district police.

However, as part of precautionary measures, on Tuesday, the deputy commissioner issued a fresh order extending the ban orders till July 21.

The orders were initially enforced in Bantwal taluk on May 27 following skirmishes between two groups. Later it was extended to the four taluks as violence spread.

The murder of a Social Democratic Party of India worker at Benjanapadavu in Bantwal on June 21 escalated the tension forcing authorities to extend prohibitory orders.

The attack on RSS activist Sharath in BC Road on July 4 by unidentified miscreants and his death in a hospital on July 7 led to further exacerbation of the communal tension.

With the fresh extension, Bantwal taluk will complete 56 continuous days of being covered under the ban order. The Mangaluru city police commissionerate area has been exempted from the order, police said.

Kochi, Mar 30: Kerala High Court, while hearing a petition filed against Karnataka's decision to block the border with Kerala, on Monday said that no lives should not be lost in the name of fighting coronavirus.

Kerala High Court also said that "the current problem should be resolved amicably. Both the Union government and the Karnataka government should rise to the occasion."
The Central government has informed Kerala High Court that the movement of goods and medical services qualify under essential services, which is permitted despite the lockdown, and added that directions have been issued to give priority to the movement of such goods and services.
Meanwhile, the Karnataka government has sought a day's time to clarify their stand.

The matter will be taken up for further hearing via video conference tomorrow.
Kerala government has submitted that the action of Karnataka government to close the border is illegal as all the national highways in the country come under the jurisdiction of the National Highway Authority.

Meanwhile, Congress MP Rajmohan Unnithan has also approached the Supreme Court seeking directions to open the Karnataka-Kerala border to allow movement of ambulances and other emergency vehicles for the transport of essential items to Kerala.
