Hindu-Muslim wedding: Radicals try to impose bandh despite nod denial

Mandya, Apr 17: Even though the Mandya district administration and police denied permission for bandh called by radical Hindutva groups in protest against an inter-religion wedding, anti-social elements made attempts to forcefully impose bandh and trigger violence in parts of the district on Saturday.

protestDistrict police have initiated a series of measures including arresting troublemakers ahead of the grand wedding ceremony of Shakeel Ahmed and Ashita alias Shaista Sultan on Sunday.

After BJP, Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) launched protests against paediatrician H.V. Narendra Babu's daughter's marriage with businessman Mr. Shakeel, the Swabhimani Vokkaligara Sene (SVS) too opposed the marriage. SVS' view is that the alliance would be an insult to the Vokkaliga community, which the girl belongs to, as she was marrying a Muslim boy.

Despite the bandh and protests, Dr Babu, the bride's father, said they had made up their minds, and there was no turning back now. The two families have known each other for several years. Ashitha and Shakeel completed their masters in business administration in Bengaluru.

Meanwhile, Mandya tahsildar Maruti Prasanna said he would issue a show-cause notice to those who staged protests against the marriage. The police have decided to continue armed security at the residence of Dr Babu.

Goondas should be treated in their own language. These trouble makers should be in jail for longer time. Police should treat goondagiri in harsh way and none shuld be allowed to disturb peace. BJP is trying to hard the situation for their political benefit. Shame on you karnataka people for supporting such goonda party.

Mangaluru, Feb 28: Sleuths of Bajpe police station have busted a counterfeit currency racket and arrested two persons on charge of printing and circulating fake currency notes of Rs 500 and Rs 200.

The arrested have been identified as Dheerendra (45), a resident of Kanjilakody House in Bantwal taluk, and Sudheer Poojary (44), a resident of Adyar Volabail. Both of them said to be activists of Hindutva groups and had campaigned for BJP during last Lok Sabha polls.

Apart from counterfeit currencies, the cops have recovered a colour printer, two mobile phones and a motor bike from the accused.

According police, on February 23 the miscreants went to a petty shop owned by one Abdul Salam near Suralpady and purchased a Gillette blade costing Rs 20. They handed over Rs 200 currency note to Abdul Salam and took Rs 180 back from him.
