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.
