Belagavi, Nov 11: Taking a dig at the BJP, MLA Laxmi Hebbalkar on Saturday said that those opposing Tipu Jayanti are the ones who lauded him in the past when they needed votes.

She was speaking after inaugurating the Tipu Jayanti celebration organized by the district administration here on Saturday. The Belagavi (Rural) MLA said that Tipu pledged his children to safeguard the kingdom from British and protected Sringeri Mutt from enemies. “One should not play politics in such issues,” she stated.

Yamakanamaradi MLA Satish Jarkiholi, said that Tipu respected Kannada and the language developed in the Mysuru region under his rule. “His contributions in making Karnataka famous in silk production are unparalleled,” he said.

Jarkiholi said some leaders are spreading lies that Tipu killed 50,000 Kodavas when the community’s population was less. “Tipu was a great king with innovative mindset and courage,” he said.

Mohammad Kaif Mulla, who was first in SSLC, was felicitated on the occasion. ZP vice-president Arun Katambale and Maulana Mushtaq Ahmed Ashraf also spoke on the occasion. DC S B Bommanahalli, city police commissioner D C Rajappa, BCC commissioner Shashidhar Kurer and additional DC H B Budeppa were present.

The Chief Minister today interacted with the MLAs from Kasargod through audio conferencing and asked them to co-ordinate the activities there along with the Panchayat president.

Mangaluru, Aug 8: As visuals of the Air India Express flight crash at Kozhikode international airport emerge, one cannot help but be reminded of an eerily similar and unfortunate accident that occurred a decade ago. The August 7, 2020 tragedy brought back memories of the 2010 crash.

It was on May 22, 2010 that an Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight from Dubai to Mangaluru over shot the runway while landing at Bajpe airport and fell into a cliff. Of the 160 passengers and 6 crew members on board, 158 were killed (all crew members and 152 passengers) and only 8 survived.

Even back then, the plane had split into two. The crash has been termed as one of India's worst aviation disasters.

The final conversations between Air traffic control (ATC) and the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication of any distress.

Like the Mangaluru accident, Karipur crash too happened when the flight was attempting to land.

The captain of the aircraft which crashed at Mangaluru, Z Glucia, was an experienced pilot with 10,000 hours of flying experience and had 19 landings at the Mangalore airport. Co-pilot S S Ahluwalia, with 3,000 hours of flying experience had as many as 66 landings at this airport. Both the pilot and co-pilot were among the victims.

An investigation into the accident later found that the cause of the accident was the captain’s failure to discontinue an ‘unstabilised approach’ and his persistence to continue with the landing, despite three calls from the First Officer to ‘go-around’.
