Madikeri, Sept 28: A police constable attached to the Ponnampete police station in Kodagu district has been suspended for his Facebook post on Indian army’s protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi led-union government’s policies.

Constable Shamim had shared the post he had received from others against the Prime Minister. The shared post mentioned protests by the Army, and asked, “Have you seen protests by Armymen earlier? Have you heard of such things? Does the Modi government need more shame than this one?”

Taking exception to his post, one B S Nandakumar from Madikeri, who claims himself to be an RTI activist, had filed a complaint with Superintendent of Police, Kodagu, P. Rajendra Prasad.

Confirming the suspension of Shamim pending an inquiry, Prasad said that a member of the police force should not identify himself with any party or ideology, which amounts to indiscipline under the Karnataka Police Act.

Mangaluru, May 27: Mangaluru MLA U T Khader today urged Dakshina Kannada MP and Karnataka BJP chief Nalin Kumar Kateel to pave the way for immediate repatriation of Mangalureans stranded across Gulf countries.

The development comes amidst reports that lack of preparedness on part of the authorities concerned in Dakshina Kannada compelled the Centre to delay the operation of repatriation flights from various Gulf to Mangaluru International Airport under Vande Bharat Mission.

Lakhs of people from Mangaluru region (coastal Karnataka) alone are working in middle eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar. Thousands of them are currently stranded thanks to covid-19 lockdown and are helplessly waiting for repatriation.

Speaking to coastaldigest.com, Mr Khader said he already spoke to Mr Kateel and brought to his notice the plight of Mangalureans in Saudi Arabia and other gulf countries. "There are a large number of pregnant women, senior citizens and patients who need immediate repatriation. It is the responsibility of the elected representatives and district administration to pave the way for the repatriation of our people and arrange quarantine facilities for them," he said. 

"Mr Kaeel is not only MP of Dakshina Kannada. He is also the chief of Karnataka's ruling party. Hence, he must play a crucial role in facilitating the return of Kannadigas in general and Mangalureans in particular," Mr Khader said.
