Installation of CCTV camera at Madrasa building irks local residents

May 1, 2015

Mangaluru, May 1: A tense situation prevailed in Subhash Nagar village near Thokkottu on the outskirts of Mangaluru city when local residents began to protest against the installation of a CCTV camera atop a madrasa building.

Around four CCTV cameras were installed atop Anjuman Mablagul Falah madrasa building in Subash Nagar residential area on Thursday evening.

A few local residents began to accuse that among the four, two CCTV cameras were installed in a way that they covered residences situated behind the madrasa building. They staged a protest against the CCTV cameras claiming that they would invade the privacy of the residents and demanded their immediate removal. As a result, a tense situation prevailed for some time.

Soon after, assistant police sub-inspector Kalyani Shetty, Ullal station inspector Savitru Teja and Ullal SI Bharathi arrived at the scene and tried to calm the protestors stating that they could not take immediate action in the absence of an Imam from the madrasa.

The protesters argued with the police saying that madrasa management is capturing the movements of local women residents through CCTV camera. When the police examined the video footage of all the CCTV cameras installed at the building, the allegations of local residents were proved to be false.

However, the locals remained adamant and urged the removal of the two CCTV cameras in spite of assurances that the residents' privacy would not be affected. They dispersed only after assurances from the authorities that the cameras would be removed from the madrasa within a couple of days.

Karnataka State Reserve Police and Ullal police personnel provided security on the occasion.

In Mangaluru pro-CAA rally Rajnath Singh rakes up Kashmiri Pundit issue

Mangaluru, Jan 27: No power can now stop Kashmiri Pandits from going back to Kashmir, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Monday, forcefully defending the NDA government’s decision to reorganise Jammu and Kashmir and abrogating its special status under Article 370.

Addressing a massive pro-CAA, NRC rally organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party at Gold Finch city, Kuloor, on the outskirts of the city, the Defence minister also sent a strong message to Pakistan and said India will not let anyone live in peace if it is harmed.

"We will not touch anyone, but if someone bothers us, then we are not going to let them live in peace," he said.

Referring to the exodus of a large number of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in the late 1990s at the height of militancy, Singh said no power now can stop them from returning to their homes.

On the Citizenship Amendment Act, the minister said it is not a law to hurt the sentiments of any religion but to give relief to victims of religious persecution.

Mahatma Gandhi had told Nehru to give citizenship to minorities like Hindus and Sikhs if they come to India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has fulfilled that vision by bringing in the law, Singh said.

On several non-BJP states refusing to implement the CAA, the defence minister said it it is a central law and everyone should follow it.

Accusing the Congress of misleading people on the issue, he said the party should not forget its duty towards the nation just because it is in opposition.
