Mangaluru, Jan 8: As many as four police personnel, including a sub-inspector, were injured in a communal clash at the district jail in Kodialbail on Monday. Ten inmates were also injured.

A fight broke out between Mithun, who has been arrested in connection with the stabbing at Kalladka, and Sadik, who is in jail in the Sharath Madivala murder case, police sources said. While Mithun is imprisoned in Barrack B for the past six months, Sadik is housed in Barrack A since August.

The district jail in Mangaluru is perhaps the only prison in the country to have separate barracks for Hindus and Muslims.

Sources said a cold war has been going on between the two communities for the past several months. Matters came to a head on Monday evening during dinner break which is also the time for visitors. Around 7pm, inmates of barrack A stormed into barrack B by damaging the door.

A case has been lodged at Barke police station here.

Udupi, Jan 16: Admar Mutt Junior seer Eshapriya Theertha Swami is all set to take over the reins of Krishna Mutt during the 250th Paryayotsava, scheduled to be held on January 17 and 18.

The uniqueness lies in the fact that the Admar Mutt, one of the Ashta Mutts of Krishna Mutt in this Temple town Udupi, ushers in the new Paryaya cycle (32nd). The Paryaya of outgoing seer Vidyadheesha Theertha Swami of Palimaru Mutt, Admar’s dwandwa (associate) mutt, marks the end of the cycle of eight mutts.

Under the system initiated by the Madhwa philosopher and saint Madwacharya, the seers of Ashta mutts would take turns to worship Lord Krishna every two months. Seer Vadiraja (1481-1601) ended the system and introduced the system of f running the temple administration once in two years.

Bengaluru, Jul 19: A man protested in front of Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa's residence on Saturday alleging lack of medical care claimed the life of his one-month-old infant girl, police said on Saturday.

Venkatesh sat with the baby's photograph in front of the Chief Minister's house, saying the girl developed health issues on July 11 and he rushed her to a hospital, but it turned him away, the police said.

He said he had approached about a dozen hospitals and all of them refused to provide the baby any medical care. Eventually, the baby died.

This forced Venkatesh to hold a protest to draw the Chief Minister's attention to the issue, the police said.

The demonstration drew public attention and a few people joined him in the protest, they said.
