Mangaluru, Feb 26: Dozens of people, especially supporters of Bharatiya Janata Party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to streets in the coastal city in jubilant mood to celebrate the air strike conducted by the Indian Air Force in Pakistan today.

A group of BJP workers gathered in front of Sri Venkataramana Temple on Car Street and raised pro-India and anti-Pakistan slogans. They hailed Indian armed forces, distributed sweets and burst fire crackers.

Special prayers were offered to the presiding deity with a prayer to empower Indian armed forces all the more to protect Indian borders.

According to the official statement of Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale, India struck the biggest training camp of Pak-based terrorist organization Jaish-e-Mohammad in Balakot.

"In this operation, a very large number of JeM terrorists, trainers, senior commanders and groups of jihadis who were being trained for fidayeen action were eliminated. This facility at Balakot was headed by Maulana Yousuf Azhar alias Ustad Ghouri, the brother-in-law of Masood Azhar, Chief of JeM." Gokhale said.

Bengaluru, Jan 28: Brace for hefty traffic penalties as the state government is all set to reverse a notification on revised fines which came into effect last September following pushback from road users and opposition parties.

The Karnataka government will implement traffic penalties as stipulated in the amended Motor Vehicles Act, 2019, in a phased manner following a diktat from the Centre. The government did not specify the timeline for it.

“At a recent meeting of transport ministers from various states, the Union government explained why it wanted to implement these huge fines. We found it convincing and will implement it in its original form,” said transport minister Laxman Savadi on Monday.

Savadi said India’s image globally has taken a beating due to the high number of road deaths and the Centre wants to change it at any cost. However, he said the entire set of hefty fines would not be reintroduced all at once.

BJP govt revised rates in Sept

The BJP government last September had revised fines on compoundable offences and those which are fined on the spot by traffic cops by 50%- 80%, barring drunken driving and racing.

As per the revised rates, helmetless riding attracted a penalty of Rs 500 against Rs 1,000 notified by the Centre. Driving without a licence attracted a fine of Rs 1,000 for

two- and three-wheelers and Rs 2,000 for light motor vehicles as against the earlier Rs 5,000 for all types of vehicles.

The central government recently told states and Union Territories they should enforce fines as per the amended Act and they cannot be rolled back. The road transport and highways ministry said fines cannot be reduced below the minimum amount fixed by law, unless the President gives his assent.
