However, the situation did not go out of control thanks to the presence of senior police officers in the ‘Shanti Sauharda Adalat’ which attracted several prominent leaders from different religions and communities. A few leaders of saffron fringe groups also took part in the meeting.

The tension erupted when Congress leader Mithun Rai slammed immoral policing against couples and vigilante attacks during cattle transportations. Unable to bear Mr Rai’s comments Bajrang Dal leader began to counter him. This led to a verbal clash between the two for some time.

In another instance, a few leaders of saffron fringe groups alleged Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner AB Ibrahim of perusing double standard and showing soft corner towards one particular community. Mr Ibrahim rubbished the claims and warned them against making baseless and communal allegations.

Rowdy Mithun Rai is a repeat offender. He is aiming for MLA seat in the next election. He want to become Hero for minorities to get their votes. But minorities need to know, he is running Haram business (Amazon Pub) in front for SDM college and recently in news for beating innocents.

Amaravati, May 7: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday said that Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has assured him to offer immediate help to stranded Andhra fishermen.

Around 300 Andhra Pradesh fishermen are stranded on the coast of Malpe village in Udupi district.

"Karnataka CM has responded very positively and assured to offer the stranded fishermen immediate help. The fishermen hail from Srikakulam district in Andhra Pradesh.

Yediyurappa has also said that their team was also contacting Andhra Pradesh authorities to safely bring them back to their home state," Naidu said in a statement on Twitter.

In a separate letter to Yediyurappa, Naidu lauded the tremendous efforts that the government of Karnataka has been putting to fight COVID-19 and expressed his solidarity with the people there in this critical time.

Naidu said that many Telugu people that have migrated to other states for work were facing various problems due to the COVID-induced lockdown.

"In this backdrop, I would like to bring to your notice that around 300 fishing folk from Srikakulam District are stranded in Malpe Village, Udupi District, Karnataka. Their families, relatives and well-wishers are deeply worried for their safety and well being," Naidu said.

The TDP chief said that on behalf of those families and on his own behalf, he would appeal for sending the stranded fishermen back to their respective homes.

"In case that is not possible, I request you to provide them with shelter, food, water, medical aid and other essential commodities until the end of COVID lockdown," TDP chief said in a letter.
