U T Khader bats for law amendment to ban bars in residential areas

Manglauru, Nov 28: The issue of bars within residential areas was so far mere a question of right or wrong rather than anything to do with the law. However, U T Khader, Minister for Food and Civil Supplies, has now suggested bringing an amendment to the law to prevent bars functioning in residential areas.

On December 27, residents of Talapady Narlapadil (which falls under Mangaluru constituency represented by Mr Khader) on the outskirts of the city staged a protest opposing the opening of a bar in their locality. Mr Khader, who visited the protesters, said that government should find legal way to prevent opening bars in residential areas.

"After the Supreme Court's order, the bars situated beside the highway are being shifted to residential areas. There is a need for a tough law to check the setting up of bars in residential areas,” he said.

He also promised the protesters that the issue of opening a bar at Talapady Narlapadil would be brought to the notice of the Excise Minister and Excise Department.

Karnataka Gadinadu Rakshana Vedike President Siddeeq Talapady said that while issuing the permit, the gram panchayat has not consulted the villagers.

"If the bar is allowed to open, then we will hold a protest by locking Talapady gram panchayat," he warned.

Taluk Panchayat member Surekha Chandrahas said the opening of a bar at Narla will pose inconvenience to the residents, especially women.

Totaly rubbish. Bars should be in residential areas. If it is not in residential area then where it should be. You people wants bars in INDUSTRIAL AREA.! Anyway I am sure about one thing, govt wont do complete ban. Because they are getting more revenue from bars because of me and my barmates

Mangaluru, June 28: In his apparent bid to win the hearts of the people of Tulu Nadu while leaving this coastal city, Dr P S Harsha, the outgoing Mangaluru city police commissioner, today took to social media and thanked the people. The language he chose for his prolonged Facebook post and one paragraph tweet was Tulu.

“Loveable people of Kudla! I have received the transfer order after serving as the Commissioner of Police of Mangaluru City for 11 months. (During this period) I worked with utmost honesty and pro-people approach with the complete cooperation of my department. I wholeheartedly thank all those who supported me,” tweeted Dr Harsha, who is now posted in Bengaluru as the Deputy Inspector General and Commissioner of Information and Public Relations.

In his Facebook post, Dr Harsha claimed that thanks to his initiative “My Beat My Pride”, the policing in the coastal city has strengthened. 

“My only intention was to put an end to rowdyism and illegal activities. I had given priority to curb the drug mafia. ‘My Beat My Pride’ became a successful initiative thanks to public support,” he said. 

The IPS officer went on to claim that with the with the co-operation of the senior officers, the police department managed to efficiently handle situations during anti-CAA and pro-CAA agitations in the city, detection of explosives at Mangaluru International Airport and also during the covid-19 pandemic. 

However, he did not mention about the death of two people in random police firing following a baton charge during anti-CAA protests in the city on December 19.
