Mangaluru, Feb 20: In yet another crime of passion, a jilted lover stabbed a girl to death in broad daylight and then allegedly attempted to kill self before being caught at Sullia in Dakshina Kannada district on Tuesday. 

The victim has been identified as Akshata, a second year BSc student of NMC College in Sullia, and a native of Kasaragod in Kerala. The accused, identified as Karthik, son of Chandrashekhar, hailing from Nellur Kemraje, is also pursuing BSc in the same college. 

The brutal attack took place at around 4 p.m. on the road near Rotary School in Sullia town when the girl was returning from the college after finishing classes. The accused pulled the girl towards him and stabbed her seven times. Then he slit his hand using same knife in suicide bid. 

The girl breathed her last in a vehicle while being taken to a Mangaluru hospital after preliminary treatment at a local private hospital.

"We were walking on the road. The boy walked up and took something from his pocket and attacked the girl. Before we could do anything he had stabbed her several times," said an eyewitness.

The police managed to catch the accused within minutes after the incident and got him admitted to a hospital for treatment. Sources said that he’s out of danger. However, the police are yet to question him.

Though the exact reason for the attack is yet to be known, college sources said that the Akshata had turned down Kartik’s proposal several times in the past. He had reportedly started harassing her after she rejected his proposals. A case has been registered in Sullia town police station and investigations are on.

Humanity lost another precious life, may God Almighty bless both victim's & accused family to come out of this tragic loss and shock. Because of the division created by power hungry politicians and ungodly religious leaders, we are forced to view every incident through COMMUNAL angle, very disappointing. May God show mercy on us!!

I heard that BJP leaders are extremely disappointed because they lost an issue as the accused doesn’t belong to Muslim community.

Mandya, Jul 24: Pressing for a total ban on stone mining and quarrying in and around the villages surrounding Krishna Raja Sagar Dam in the District, many organisations have called for Mandya bandh on July 29.

The bandh has been supported by Raitha Sangha, Karunada Sevakara Sanghatane, Auto Drivers Association, Jaya Karnataka, Bharatiya Samvidhana Hitharakshana Vedike, Sugarcane Growers Association, Vokkaligara Seva Trust and Dalita Sangarsh Samiti (Krishnappa faction).

The activists said that the State Government must immediately take steps and permanently ban mining in 20 km radius around KRS as continuous blasting for stones is causing grave danger to the structure.

Bengaluru, Jan 18: The government slammed Kerala’s tourism department for putting out a tweet on Sankranti Day, promoting ‘beef ularthiyathu’, a specialty in that state, but the move backfired spectacularly with Karnataka’s tourism minister being heavily trolled.

After Kerala put out its advertisement, state tourism minister CT Ravi, seizing the opportunity, took a dig at the Left government in Kerala, saying, “Welcome to Karnataka”. He followed that up with another tweet listing delicious “vegetarian” dishes of coastal Karnataka — a coastline which runs to Kerala.

“Welcome to Karnataka to bring out the Vegetarian in you. Enjoy the flavors of Tulu Nadu – Pathrode, Kotte Kadubu, Halasina Hannina Gatti, Avalakki Upkari, Badanekayi Mosaru Gojju and a whole lot of authentic food to hit Your tastebuds,” Ravi’s tweet read.

Ravi’s tweet sparked a debate between those for and against eating beef, including legislators like Sowmya Reddy (Congress) and Shobha Karandlaje (BJP). Some pointed out that Karnataka is 80% non-vegetarian and an appropriate response to beef curry would have been “pandi curry” (wild pig curry) — a Kodagu specialty.

Realising his tweets were getting more negative than positive traction, Ravi quickly amended his stand and on Friday tweeted: “Nati Koli Saaru Mudde. Aw! Delightful Delicacy of Old Mysuru region. Farm bred Chicken traditionally cooked to perfection and served with the soft Ragi Mudde. You will ask for more !!!”
