Mr Borse, under whose leadership a peace meeting was organised in Savanoor village of Puttur taluk on Saturday, a day after brutal attack on two Muslim auto-rickshaw drivers by the miscreants belonging to another community, urged the people not to give communal tinge to each and every incident.

He promised to conduct an impartial probe into the Friday's attack that triggered communal tension in the region.

Critical condition

Meanwhile, the two victims-Mohammed Asif (22) and Khalandar (24), both residents of Savanur- have been admitted to two spate private hospitals. The condition of Asif, who was attacked with swords and iron rods, is still critical. He is in the ICU.

Khalandar, who is in a condition to communicate, has identified the assailants as Monappa Gowda, Darnappa Gowda, Kushalappa, Babu Gowda, Poovani Gowda, his three children Prasad, Balakirshina and Keshava.

Attack by gang

According to the complaint lodged at a the jurisdictional police station, Monappa Gowda, a resident of Idyadi near Savanur, had hired Asif's auto rickshaw on Friday evening.

When the auto-rickshaw reached near Monappa's house, he asked the driver to wait on promise of fetching money from the house. Meantime, Poovani Gowda and his son Prasad, approached the auto-rickshaw and attacked the driver after an argument. He managed to escape and broke his fast at a mosque.

After spending some time in the mosque, he decided to return home. As he had to go through the same route, he requested his friend Khalandar, who is also an auto-rickshaw driver, to accompany him.

When the duo reached Idyadi, the same assailants along with few others waylaid their auto-rickshaw and toppled it. They attacked the duo with lethal weapons like sword and iron rods.

Two held

Meanwhile, a team of police attached to Kadaba police station managed to arrest Poovani Gowda (62) and Monappa Gowda (67) for attack on rickshaw drivers. Cases have been registered against seven persons in connection with the incident.

Counter complaint

Soon after the victims lodged a complaint, the wife of Poovani Gowda, one of the assailants, also lodged a complaint with the same police station accusing the victim of attempting to outrage her modesty.

In her complaint she claimed that Asif tried to snatch her mangala sutra and misbehaved with another woman, when they intervened during a fight between Asif and Poovani Gowda.

We Muslims will have day to laugh at these stupid arrogant attackers, who bow down to the hate Mongers speeches...
We believe even if we dont get justice here... Our creator will give us that Justice which will not be a least injustice .
Have Patience brother... YOU are fasting for the one who created all that exists including the one who attacked YOU ...
Your compensation will not be gone in VAIN ... It will be there with the CREATOR. The arrogant may seem its finished.. But GOD is aware of all that happens.. A believer will need to be patience when those who are in POWER gives a blind eye.

I request YOU to forgive the attacker and give him the real message of ISLAM of SABR... May ALLAH reward YOU and cure your pain.

MR borse did very good job by arranging a peace meet. it s not a communal clash. some misunderstanding. whatever attacker made its unlawful serious action must be taken against them, before doing anything need to think 100 times. few people's fight may create unrest in entire region.

Bhopal, Mar 18: Congress leader Digvijay Singh's detention by police in Bengaluru is display of "dictatorship and Hitlarshahi" by the BJP, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath said here on Wednesday.

Singh staged a protest near a Bengaluru resort this morning where rebel MLAs of Madhya Pradesh Congress are staying, and demanded that he be allowed to meet them.

Singh, who has been detained by the police, accused the BJP of holding the MLAs captive and said that he would go on a "hunger strike".

Reacting to this, Nath said if the need arises he would also go to the Karnataka capital.

"Preventing Congress Rajya Sabha candidate and other ministers from meeting MLAs, misbehave with them, forcibly taken them into custody is totally a dictatorship and hitlershahi (sic)," Nath said in a tweet.

"Entire country is watching how an elected government is being made unstable and how BJP is murdering democratic values," Nath said.

"Why they are not allowing them to meet MLAs. What BJP is afraid of. BJP is playing a dirty political game in the state," the chief minister tweeted.

Demanding immediate release of detained Congress leaders, Nath said that democratic norms and Constitutional values are being stifled.

Later speaking to reporters, the CM said, "Why the BJP is afraid of presenting 16 MLAs here (Bhopal)? What is the problem in one person (Singh) meeting with 16 legislators?"

Nath reiterated that his government had proven majority on floor of the House in the last 15 months since coming to power.

Amid political uncertainty in Madhya Pradesh, the state Congress Legislature Party on Tuesday moved the Supreme Court seeking direction to the Centre and the BJP-led Karnataka government to grant it access to communicate with its rebel MLAs staying in Bengaluru.

The apex court had also directed the Kamal Nath government to respond by Wednesday to a plea by senior BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chouhan seeking immediate floor test in the Assembly.

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government. 

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited. 

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

Bengaluru, Jun 24: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah criticised the current state government rates for COVID-19 treatment in private hospitals and said that the patients must be treated free of charge in all hospitals.

"The state government has fixed rates for treating COVID-19. The current rates are shocking to the people," Siddaramaiah said.
Questioning the state government, he said, "Where can people pay these rates fixed by the government per day? Looking at these rates can be heartbreaking for the people. This raises the question of whether the government is sensitive to people's issues."

"The government must promptly announce free treatment and set up a standard treatment protocol. The government should appoint a panel of experts to continuously monitor whether treatment is being properly administered and create an environment where the public is free from anxiety," Siddaramaiah added.

Karnataka on Tuesday reported 322 fresh COVID-19 positive cases and eight deaths.
According to the state health department, the total number of positive cases has mounted to 9,721 and 150 deaths. So far, 6,004 people have been discharged.
