Ahmedabad, Sept 3: Liladhar Vaghela, a veteran leader of Bharatiya Janata Party and MP from Gujarat’s Patan constituency, is slowly recuperating the intensive care unit of a hospital after he was attacked by a cow, which is considered as “god” and “mother” by the saffron party.

Two ribs of 83-year-old Vaghela were fractured in the cow attack that took place on Friday outside his residence in Sector 21, Gandhinagar, Gujarat. He was taken to Gandhinagar Civil Hospital and moved to ApolloHospital on the same evening after he complained of difficulty in breathing.

Vaghela’s associates say that he had ventured out for his routine morning walk with a few rotis left over from the previous night to feed a stray cow near his home. The cow gored him.

A medical bulletin issued by Apollo Hospital described Vaghela’s condition as stable and said that he was recuperating in the ICU.

Before being elected to Parliament, Vaghela was a cabinet minister in Gujarat. He is currently a member of the standing committee on water resources, the consultative committee on panchayati raj, and the committee on drinking water and sanitation.

Soon after the cow attack, Gandhinagar collector and in-charge municipal commissioner S K Langa issued a directive for the deployment of a state reserve police company with the cattle and dog menace department of the Gandhinagar Municipal Corporation (GMC) to round up stray cows.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: Karnataka Police and intelligence have been asked to be on alert in the wake of communal violence in Delhi and take preemptive measures, state Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai said here on Wednesday.

"We have been keeping a close watch on the developments after the Delhi incident. I have instructed my officers to be on alert and take precautionary actions rather than actions after the incidents," Bommai told media.

"The day before yesterday we had a high-level meeting...we are having a close watch," he added.

Violence erupted in Delhi on Sunday evening after groups protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and those supporting it indulged in stone pelting at each other.

The confrontation soon turned communal and the violence spread to other areas of northeast Delhi including Chand Bagh, Mustafabad, Brijpuri, Shiv Vihar and Noor Ilahi on Monday and Tuesday in which at least 20 persons, including a police head constable, have died and over 200 have been injured.
