Police resorted to mild baton charge to disperse mob at Kalladka junction within an hour after armed miscreants hacked Mohammed Ashraf, SDPI’s Ammunje unit president, to death at Benjanapadavu on Wednesday morning.

As part of precautionary measures, the police asked the locals in Kalladka to shut down their shops and commercial establishments and remain at homes.

Meanwhile, RSS leader Prabhakar Bhat along with his followers reportedly forced some locals to open their shops. This led to a tense situation in the town for some time. When local residents began to gather, police intervened and canned the mob.

The local residents accused Kalladka Bhat of deliberately trying to disrupt peace in the society. Security was further tightened in the town after the murder.

Deputy Commissioner K G Jagadeesha and Inspector General of Police (Western Range) P Harishekaran also visited Kalladka to oversee the security measures.

Bengaluru, Apr 4: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday asked Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar to be the government's spokesperson on the Novel Coronavirus crisis management effort, a move that is being seen as keeping too many cooks from spoiling the broth.

At a high-level meeting to review measures on COVID-19 containment, Mr Yediyurappa is said to have taken exception to his Cabinet colleagues making multiple, and often contradictory statements, leading to confusion.

''The CM has directed Mr Kumar to be the only one to brief the media on COVID-19,'' a source from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) confirmed.

Mangaluru, Mar 29: The state government has lifted the restrictions on the movement of chicken and eggs, thus ensuring the availability of protein-based nutrition to consumers.

Due to the 21-day lockdown in the State, police and other regulatory authorities were not allowing movement of poultry products, which not only had affected the entire poultry sector but also the consumers. The Karnataka Poultry Farmers and Breeders Association (KPFBA) had made a representation to the government to lift the restrictions.

The Secretary of Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, A B Ibrahim in a circular dated March 27, 2020 night , said that the minimal husbandry sector came under essential services and is given exemption during the lockdown period. He cited the letter which provides for the exemption, issued by the Government of India Home Secretary and the Union Joint Secretary of Animal Husbandry and Dairying.
