Mangaluru, Jul 27: A fresh case of Bajrang Dal’s involvement in the illegal and inhumane transportation of gau maata has surfaced in Karnataka’s coastal district Dakshina Kannada, wherein the saffron outfit is forming ‘Gau Raksha Dal’ to “protect cows”.

Bajrang Dal activist Shashi Kumar Bhat (48), son of Krishna Bhat, a resident of Vittla Padnoor village in Bantwal taluk has been arrested in connection with the illegal cattle transportation along with his aide Abdul Haris (21), son of Mohammed, a resident of Kolnad village in same taluk.

The duo was transporting four cows and a calf in a cruel way when their light commercial was intercepted by a team of police from Vittla police station at Kadambu Junction in Vittla Padnoor village around 11 p.m. last night (July 26). 

The cops seized all five animals and the Ashok Leyland DOST which was being used for illegal transpiration. 

Shashi Kumar Bhat is locally known for his involvement in the activities of Bajrang Dal. He had reportedly taken part in an attack on cattle transporters in the past. Abdul Haris was one of the suspects in a cow theft case reported from Alike village recently. He is also facing a case in Konaje police station.

According to sources, the cows were being transported to a slaughter house. It is learnt that the illegal activity came to light due the internal differences among local Bajrang Dal activists. A bête-noir of Shashi Kumar within Bajrang Dal gave the information of illegal transpiration to the police, sources said. 

Police Sub Inspector H E Nagaraj, constables Abhijit, Lokesh, Ramesh, Rakshit and Raghuram were part of the operation.

Looks like the real cow traffickers are Bajarang dal activist and their followers. They are using Musilm young men as aide so, if they are caught blame it on the Muslim men as the cow trafficers and with the hepl of police the real Hindu cow traffickers escape.

These saffrons are doing all illegal things. They do protest for cow safety and do eat beef in night. If they caught red handed, argue that they ate onions. Eg: K surendran

Mangaluru, Aug 4: The Kasaragod district administration has decided to restore the e-pass system for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru amid covid-19 crisis. 

As covid-19 cases began to increase in Dakshina Kannada, the Kasargod district administration had unilaterally newly introduced of daily pass system on July 6 for entry and exit from Talapady border. This had inconvenienced hundreds of employees, who visited Mangaluru daily to eke a living. 

The decision to resume the pass system was taken in a video conference of Kerala Revenue Minister Chandrasekharan with officials and elected representatives on August 3.

The minister said the Kasaragod district administration will resume issuing of passes for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru. But they should undergo rapid antigen test for every week to renew their passes.

"Similarly, one-time interstate passes will be issued for those who want to take part in marriages, funeral and other functions in both states. Even they should undergo antigen test after returning from the functions,” the minister added.

As per the previous order, daily commuters, especially employees, had to stay in Mangaluru for 28 days before returning to Kasargod. Later, Kerala government relaxed rules on July 23 allowing only bank employees from Kasaragod to travel daily in their private vehicles to their workplace in Dakshina Kannada.

Bengaluru, Jan 6: There is a wide spread criticism by the Janata Dal(S) and Congress leaders over a proposal to rename Ramanagaram district as New (Nava) Bengaluru, Karnataka Chief Minister CM Yediyurappa said on Monday.

“An unnecessary discussion on renaming Ramanagaram is under way. There is no thought before the government over renaming," The CM accused the Congress and JD(S) leaders of indulging in baseless discussion to mislead the people and to remain relevant. "There is no such agenda before the government. It is a joke that JD(S) and Congress leaders are starting a fight over it.”

The Chief Minister’s clarification came after criticism by former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, who carved out the Ramanagaram district when he was Chief Minister, and former Minister DK Shivakumar whose Kanakapura constituency is in Ramanagaram district, after Deputy Chief Minister CN Ashwath Narayan said Ramanagaram could be renamed as Nava Bengaluru to increase investments prospects.
