Chikkamagaluru, Jul 26: A group of Hindutva activists brutally assaulted two migrant workers from northeast India after calling them Bangladeshi terrorists' near Alduru town in Chikkamagaluru taluk on Monday.

hinduThe injured have been identified as Ohijul Sikdar (32) and Tamsorali, both were part of a group of labourers from Assam. Among them Sikdar was seriously injured when a gang of 10 activists pushed him, and hit his head, back and limbs. He was lying on the road unconscious by the time police reached the spot.

The police rushed him to the government hospital in Alduru and later to the district hospital in Chikkamagaluru, where he is said to be recovering.

The incident happened around 8.30 p.m. when around 60 people, including a few children, from Assam, all hired by various estates as plantation workers, reached Alduru town in a private bus.

The workers from Assam had reached Bengaluru by train. As there was no KSRTC service on the day, they hired a private bus to reach Alduru.

As they were walking towards their respective estates, a group of Hindutva activists stopped them and asked them go back to their native land. They allegedly called them “terrorists from Bangladesh” and said they should no longer work in Chikkamagaluru. They picked up an argument with two of them and beat them up, according to the complaint registered in Alduru Police Station.

Following the incident, Alduru police registered a case on charges of attempt to murder and rioting against 10 people. Six of the accused were arrested by Tuesday morning. The arrested are Tejas, Sharat, Shivakumar, Manu Kumar, Rohit and Sudarshan. “Four other accused are absconding,” said K. Santosh Babu, Chikkamagaluru Superintendent of Police.

Govt should spare no time in arresting the leaders of the terrorist organisatins to brutually attacked inidans from other states. These terrorists have no right to be called as Indians as they have no respect for the co-Indians. Shame on your Hindutva terrorists. Govt should ban these terrorist organisations and kick out their leaders out of Indian mainland. Hoswever, i am sorry to say that no Govt will take that step. Instead of arresting the terrorists i doubt that innocents migrants will be arrested and punished for no fault of theirs.

Mangaluru, Jan 25: Orange vendor Harekala Hajabba, popularly known as 'Akshara Santha' (the saint of alphabets), who went on to build a school at Newpadpu village on the city’s outskirts in 1999 is among this year’s Padma Shri awardees.

When Hajabba received the call on being nominated for the award, he was standing in a queue to buy rations.

As he is not fluent in Hindi, Hajabba handed over the phone to an auto driver, who conveyed the news that the Padma Shri award will be conferred on him.

The unlettered achiever set up a primary school from his meagre savings of Rs 150 per day,  selling oranges in Mangaluru. 

“The first time I felt bad for being an illiterate was when a foreigner enquired about the price of oranges in English. I did not know what he meant. So, I decided to start a school in my village,” Hajabba had said during a felicitation programme.

When Hajabba decided to start a school, he did not get any support. He started the school with 28 children.

The school today has been upgraded to a composite high school and is catering to the educational needs of hundreds of children in and around Newpadpu.

He ran from pillar to post in the Zilla Panchayat to make his dream come true. All cash awards he had received went into building the school. The United Christians Association, moved by the sight of his dilapidated house, built a 760-square-foot house costing Rs 15 lakh for him. 

Hajabba’s life was prescribed for the syllabus of three universities - Davangere, Kuvempu and Mangalore. His success story is also included in a Tulu textbook.

He won the Karnataka Rajyotsava award in 2013, Real Heroes award from TV channel CNN-IBN.

Hajabba, when contacted, said he could not believe his ears when told about the award.

New dreams

The frail vendor, in his 60s, humbly declared that he could achieve all this because of the support of all. Hajabba now dreams of upgrading the school into a full-fledged PU college.
