One of the country's worst aviation disasters, Air India Express flight 812 coming here from Dubai overshot the runway and crashed while landing at the international airport in the early hours of May 22, 2010 killing 158 passengers. There were 160 passengers and six crew members on board this ill-fated flight. Eight of them survived.

On Sunday the memorial function was held by the Dakshina Kannada district administration at the memorial park at Kurlur where the bodies of 12 unidentified victims of the crash have been buried. The park is being developed as a tribute to the victims of the incident. New Mangalore Port Trust is developing the park. District Minister in-charge B Ramanath Rai led the memorial service and offered floral tributes.

The Dakshina Kannada district administration has been holding a condolence meet every year to mark the anniversary of this crash. Until last year the memorial services were held at the crash spot. However, at the condolence meeting last year it was decided to hold the annual memorial service at the memorial park from this year.

22/5 Park

Speaking to media persons Deputy Commissioner AB Ibrahim said that although the district administration had urged the Airports Authority of India and Air India to set up a memorial at the park, they have not been forthcoming on this issue. The administration has requested Mangaluru City Corporation to set up the memorial, he said adding the civic body is expected to take a decision on this request shortly. An early memorial set up at the crash site at Kenjar was vandalized.

The park at Kuloor has been named '22/5 Park' to remember the month and date of the incident, the DC said, adding the administration has placed on record its gratitude to New Mangalore Port Trust authorities for its total support in constructing the park. "The work on the park will be completed in the next three months," Ibrahim said. The dozen bodies were interned at the park site after all attempts to identify them through string of tests proved inconclusive.

New Delhi, Mar 3: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra, who instigated violence in northeast Delhi by provoking mobs, has now been provided with 24x7 security. After he claimed threat to his life, he has been provided with “Y” category security — which entitles him to six security personnel round-the-clock to guard him in and outside the city.

He had fought the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections by giving inflammatory remarks around the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act in Shaheen Bagh, and lost to Aam Aadmi Party candidate. But he continued to issue provocative remarks.

While there is clear evidence of his scandalous statements just a day before the violence was unleashed on Muslims in Delhi last week where around 50 people were killed, no action has been taken against him so far. Instead, he is being treated as a hero in his party.

As per sources, Mishra complained that he got life threats over the past week in wake of the violence and based on his request, the Delhi Police has provided the security cover.

Mishra had taken to social media platform Twitter and alleged that he was receiving threats via WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, from Indian and foreign accounts.

“I am constantly being threatened with murder on the phone, on WhatsApp, on email. Hundreds of threats are being given continuously from the country and abroad. I don’t fear this hate campaign against me,” he had said on Twitter on March 1.

Mishra had on February 23 made an incendiary speech, following which North-East Delhi witnessed anti-Muslim violence.

The Supreme Court of India on Monday said it will on Wednesday (March 4) hear a plea that sought immediate FIRs against Kapil Mishra, Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur and other leaders for their recent hate speech, which allegedly triggered the violence in Delhi. The plea was filed by Delhi violence survivors.

The apex court bench, comprising Chief Justice SA Bobde, listed the matter for hearing after senior advocate Colin Gonsalves, who is appearing on behalf of the survivors told the SC that the Delhi High Court had last week adjourned the matter for six weeks even as “people are dying every day”.
