Murder after saffron group's Sankalpa Yatra' triggers communal tension

Madekeri, Aug 16: The murder of a 30-year-old youth at Kushalnagar on the Mysuru-Kodagu border has sparked communal tension in the region.

Praveen Poojary, 30, son of Chandappa Poojary, was killed by unknown persons on Sunday midnight near Guddehosuru village and the body was found in his autorickshaw.

This happened hours after the Sankalpa Yatra organized by a Hindutva organization to create awareness about Hindu nationalism.

Kodagu police clamped prohibitory orders under section 144 of the CrPC in Kushalnagar and surrounding places.

Hindutva group workers on Monday gathered at the mortuary in Kushalnagar and auto drivers joined them. They demanded the arrest of the killers before the postmortem was conducted.

They didn't allow the medical officer to enter the mortuary and demanded the presence of in-charge minister Seetharam who attended the Independence Day celebrations at Madikeri.

To pacify the agitators, deputy commissioner Richard Vincent and MLC Sunil Subramani communicated the minister's strong message that the killers would be arrested within 24 hours and the victim's family would be compensated.

The district witnessed communal tension for more than a month in the aftermath of violence at Madikeri during the Tipu Sultan birth anniversary last November.1sankalpa

The chaddis will not hesitate to do any mischief... They will kill themselves and put the blame on others....as it happened in Bhatkal, where it was found that a Hindu auto driver placed a meat bag in the Nagabana to create trouble..... If they are saints, why they are carrying torch flames in their hands.....that speaks a lot of their intentions.......What do you say Naren and Riyadh Bopanna ??????/

Police have to probe the case of this murder.
Noticed a new gimmick by Hindutva group that for any yatras of their these days they carry \Fire Torches\". What message they want to give?????"

Bengaluru, Jun 30: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday demanded setting up of an all-party committee to monitor treatment-related issues in hospitals and said there are allegations of "corruption and nepotism" in the management of COVID-19 treatment.

Siddaramaiah said in a tweet that Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa should immediately form all-party monitoring committee.

"This is very much needed to increase public confidence in the backdrop of several complaints," he said.
"There are allegations of corruption and nepotism in the management of COVID-19 treatment. It is need of the hour to manage this unprecedented health crisis with public safety as the only objective," he said in another tweet.

He urged the Chief Minister to make the treatment protocol clear to the patients and instil hope. "Do not keep them in dark," he said.

The senior Congress leader also urged the Chief Minister to extend insurance and other benefits to private hospital doctors, nurses and support staff.
Karnataka has reported a total of 14,295 COVID-19 cases.
