The victim has been identified as Altaf, a local resident. He was attacked by a gang led by one Sandeep when the former was eating at a fast food restaurant.

A severely injured Altaf was immediately rushed to a hospital in Kasargod where he received preliminary treatment. He was later shifted to a hospital in Mangaluru for further treatment.

Kasargod police reached the spot and registered a case. The manhunt is on.

It could be recalled here that Muhammed Riyaz Moulavi, a madrasa teacher was stabbed to death by Sangh Parivar activists in March this year at a mosque in Old Choori.

3 held for murder attempt

In a separate case, the police have arrested three persons here on charge of attempting to murder a youth a week ago.

A police team led by Kasaragod Town Circle Inspector C.A. Abdul Rahim arrested Khaisal, 28, Habeeb, 22, residents of Anangoor here, and Thajuddin, 26, from nearby Majal, in connection with the murder attempt on Rajesh, alias Raju.

Around 9.45 p.m. on June 14, Rajesh was riding a scooter along with his friend, when the accused rammed the car they were travelling in into the scooter. Rajesh sustained multiple injuries in the incident and is being treated at a hospital in Mangaluru.

The attack was in apparent retaliation to the killing of Zainul Abid in the town in 2008. The police are on the lookout for Sulaiman Rifal, alias Chippy, 26, who allegedly masterminded the crime.

Bengaluru, Aug 4 : Without mentioning any party leader's name, Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Monday appealed to Congress workers not to make any "defamatory statement" against any political leader on social media platforms.

Taking to Twitter, Shivakumar wrote, "I appeal to Congress workers not to make defamatory statements against any political leader, on matters of health and other issues on social media platforms. It is not in our culture to wish bad for others. Congress is a party that exemplifies brotherhood and humanity."

His statement comes days after Rajya Sabha MP and AICC in-charge for Gujarat, Rajiv Satav comment where he suggested that introspection in the party should begin from the time of the United Progressive Alliance -II government.

Later, Satav took to Twitter to clarify his remarks at Thursday's meeting of the party's Upper House MPs. Satav, through a series of tweets on Saturday, said he was not comfortable discussing what goes on inside party meetings in forums outside.

Tumakuru, Jan 3: Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, who has drawn flak for the Centre releasing “inadequate” flood relief to the State, on Thursday asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for additional relief during his speech at a farmers’ convention in Tumakuru.

The Chief Minister even said, “I have brought this to the notice of the Prime Minister three or four times, but till now no additional relief has been sanctioned. I request him with folded hands to release it soon,” in Kannada. The Prime Minister, who spoke later at the event, however, did not respond to the Chief Minister’s request in his speech.

Mr. Yediyurappa said the State had witnessed losses to the tune of over ₹30,000 crore because of floods.

‘Stress on irrigation’

Addressing farmers at one of his main support bases of Tumakuru, the Lingayat strongman advised the Prime Minister that his dream of doubling farmers’ income by 2023 could become a reality only if he focused on “providing scientific price to farm produce, bringing water to farms through irrigation, and by interlinking rivers”.

Mr. Yediyurappa’s remarks made at a programme to release the fourth instalment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Yojana, a farm subsidy cash transfer scheme of the Union government, have raised eyebrows.

Stressing on the key role of irrigation schemes in farmers’ welfare, he sought a special package of ₹50,000 crore for completion of long-pending projects in Karnataka.

The five-minute-long speech is being seen as an attempt by the Chief Minister to assert himself within the party by publicly putting even the Prime Minister on the mat. This comes in the wake of the BJP suffering defeats in multiple States and the party’s victory in the recent bypolls in the State under Mr. Yediyurappa’s leadership, both of which have only strengthened the Chief Minister, sources in the party said. “We are curious as to how the party high command will now deal with this public assertion in front of the Prime Minister,” a senior party leader said.

The Chief Minister has been reportedly “deeply unhappy” over the delay in the flood relief by the Union government and also the “inadequate” amount released. The Opposition has attacked him over lack of adequate Central relief, which was interpreted as the BJP central leadership’s reported unhappiness with him. The Chief Minister had then said he was doing a “tightrope walk”.

After a delay of over two months, the Centre released ₹1,200 crore as flood relief in October 2019.
