Mangaluru, Dec 30: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner Sasikanth Senthil has issued orders to extern two persons including a leader of Hindu Jagarana Vedike (HJV) for six months on charge of causing communal riots in Bantwal taluk earlier this year.

A clash between HJV leader Ratnakar Shetty and one Ibrahim Khaleel at Kalladka on June 13 had snowballed into communal clash in the region. Shetty had stabbed Khaleel. Both had filed complaints against each other at Bantwal Town Police.

While Khaleel was arrested soon after he got admitted to a hospital, Shetty, who had suffered minor injuries in the clash, was arrested nearly two months later.

Superintendent of Police Sudhir Kumar Reddy said that both of them were involved in several crimes and rowdy-sheets have been opened against them at Bantwal Rural police station.

An application for externment of Ratnakar Shetty and Khaleel was pending before the deputy commissioner for the past two months. After several hearings, the deputy commissioner on Friday ordered them to stay out of Dakshina Kannada district for six months, he said.

No PFI connection

Meanwhile, the local unit of Popular Front of India has rubbished the reports of some news portals that portrayed Ibrahim Khaleel as a PFI activist. “Khaleel is not a PFI activist. He has no connection with PFI” stated Navaz Ullal, DK district president of PFI.

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 7: Making a scathing attack on the Central government, Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Issac on Friday said the BJP-led NDA government was "strangulating" the southern state by denying funds.

Presenting the 2020-21 budget of the Pinarayi Vijayan led-LDF government, he alleged the centre has been "helping" corporates rather that the common man.

"The Centre has been strangulating Kerala by denying funds for the state and has been moving on a self-destructive path by corporate-friendly policies and privatisation. The GST implementation has not been beneficial for the state," he said.

"The government proposes 2.5 lakh water connections in the upcoming financial year. We will also construct one lakh houses under Life Mission," the finance minister said.

The budget has allocated Rs 90 crore for Pravasi Welfare Fund and the government proposes power projects with a capacity of 500 MW.

"The government proposes Kochi development plan with a fund of Rs 6,000 crore. The city will get an unified travel card and Metro project will be extended," Issac said.

The state government has increased all welfare pension funds by Rs 100, allotted Rs 40 crore to paddy farmers and Rs 10 crore for startups in the state.

The local self-governments have been allotted Rs five crore for waste management, Rs 20 crore has been set apart for 1,000 food stalls under hunger-free Kerala, where meals will be made available at Rs 25.
