Mangaluru: Cops abort funeral procession; transport Deepak’s body secretly to Katipalla

Mangaluru, Jan 4: Even though Hindutva groups such as Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal had planned to take out a funeral procession of Deepak Rao, who was hacked to death yesterday, the police foiled their bid by secretly transporting the mortal remains in an ambulance to the house of the victim at Katipalla on the outskirts of the city on Thursday morning.

When the saffron activists came to known that the police shifted the dead body without their knowledge hundreds of them gathered in front of Deepak’s house and prevented the police from shifting the body from the ambulance to the house. A tense atmosphere has prevailed in the region. The activists are exerting pressure on the police to take the dead body back to the hospital and allow them to hold a procession.

Meanwhile, police have clamped prohibitory orders under Section 35 of Karnataka Police Act in the entire commissionerate limit till Thursday 10pm. Any procession will be considered violation of law during this period.

According to sources, the BJP and other right wing organisations had asked city police commissioner T R Suresh for permission to take out a funeral procession from AJ Hospital to Katipalla, a 15km stretch on the national highway. However, the top cop denied the permission considering that procession may lead to a law and order problem like in the past and result in a communal violence.

In the past many funeral processions taken out by the Hindutva groups had led to communal riots in Dakshina Kannada. In July 2017, the Hindutva groups had taken out a funeral procession of a slain RSS activists even though police had denied permission for the procession. This had led to communal tension in various parts of the district.

Bengaluru, Jul 27: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said that when COVID-19 has made life and livelihoods difficult, it is unfortunate that charges have been levelled of irregularities in the procurement of COVID-19 equipment.

"The Congress which has levelled charges against the ruling BJP has not so far filed a complaint with any investigating agency. Instead, the Congress has limited itself to getting publicity. On the other hand, the ruling BJP instead of coming clean by ordering a probe into the main charges is indirectly admitting the scam," Kumaraswamy said on Sunday.

"By washing dirty linen in public, both the Congress and the BJP are playing a cruel joke on people instead of protecting their lives," he said.

Hitting out at the BJP, he asked, "Why is it that the BJP is not ordering an investigation into the Rs 2,000 crore Covid 19 corruption charges levelled against the government by the Congress? Why is the government keeping quiet on the corruption charges?"

He said, "Is this the leadership provided by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa? There could be political pressure on seeking resignation of his Ministers. But why has no action been initiated against any officers? Is there any effort to destroy the evidence by retaining officers in their existing postings?"

"Hunger for publicity is evident when we look at the press conference by five Ministers at a time," he said.

The government has countered the charges of the Congress but backtracked on ordering an investigation, he said.

"Would this not give rise to suspicion that the government is involved in the scam?" he asked.

He also asked why Congress leaders have not filed a complaint before any investigating agency despite "possessing documents to prove the charges".

"Are the Congress leaders trying to get publicity or are they concerned about the welfare of the people? The Congress Legislative Party leader is seeking an account (Lekka Kodi) while the BJP president is seeking answers (Uttara Kodi). Is it enough to give such questions and answers?"

Is there a concrete legal plan to deal with the irregularities? he asked.

"Looking at the way the Congress leaders have addressed media conferences and taken to social media campaigns, it appears that they are trying to get publicity," he said.
