Mangalore/Udupi, August 23: Dakshina Kannada and Udupi District units of Janatha Dal (S) along with left parties on Tuesday staged demonstrations against the Central government for its failure to pass the Jan Lokpal bill and supporting Anna Hazare's anti-corruption movement.

JD(S), CPI and CPI (M) members participated in the protest in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner in Mangalore and shouted slogans against the Central government.


In Udupi the protest was held at Service Bus stand.

CPI (M) District Secretary K Shankar said that a section of upper class youth, who used to remain away from the issues relating to common man, joining hands with Anna Hazare is a good development.

He also said that all that Anna said was not right. It has both advantages and disadvantages. One should not be under the impression that corruption would be wiped immediately after the Jan Lokpal bill was passed.

He took the central government to task for mishandling the issue. With people uniting against corruption Chief Minister Yeddyurappa and his children spending time in jail not far, he said.

District JD(S) President Deviprasad Shetty, CITU leader Vishwanth Rai, CPI Taluk Secretary Sanjeeva, JD(S) activists Shalini Shetty Kenchanoor, Vasudev Rao, CPI members Raju Poojary, Vittal Shetty, Anand Poojary, Rama Kundar, KV Bhat and others participated in the protest.

On June 17 our state will be taking part in it at around 3 pm," Mr Sudhakar said in response to a question.

Speaking to reporters at Kalaburagi, he said the current situation would be discussed in that meeting. Mr Sudhakar said the Prime Minister has repeatedly been holding such video conferencing exercises to take stock of the situation and plan for the future.

"There will not be a lockdown anymore according to me," he added.

There has been speculation that there would be another shutdown from this month owing to a rapid rise in the number of cases.
