SHANKAR-BIDARI

Udupi, December 17: Director General of Police Shankar Bidari informed that he will visit all districts in the state every month to ensure effective maintenance of law and order.

Speaking to media persons on his maiden visit to the district on Friday, after taking charge, the DGP said the districts comprising Naxal prone areas are given additional priority. Measures will be taken at zonal level to strengthen the police force, he said.

Asserting that Naxal menace in this part of the state is absolutely under control, Bidari assured that the Naxal problem in this area is not an issue to worry. Stating that Anti Naxal Force (ANF) will have additional responsibilities to discharge in the coming days, the DGP said the action plans of ANF will be changed aiding more effective activities. Measures will be taken to make the force more pro-counteractive. However, he declined to reveal the details of the changes to be incorporated into ANF activities.

Reiterating that attempts are made to make the coastal belt of the state free of underworld activities, the DGP said police are working towards making the area free from underworld activities.

Lauding Udupi Superintendent of Police Dr Y S Ravikumar for his commendable job in maintaining law and order across the district, Bidari said Udupi police under the guidance of Ravikumar has achieved incredible work. They successfully nabbed the underworld gangsters besides quickly solving many theft and robbery cases.

The DGP said they are able to trace the slayers involved in the murder cases that took place in the district in a short span of time. Bidari informed that he visited ANF camps located in the naxal prone areas of Karkala. The purpose of the visit is to assess the progress in the activities of the force, besides to chalk out proposals over the necessary measures to improve the action strategies of ANF, he added.

As a departure note, the DGP hilariously commented that these days differences between public and police are increasing owing to the proximity of the police personnel with the public, he added.

Kerala: Muslims Make Way For Hindu Temple Procession During Anti-CAA Protests

News Network

January 28,2020

Jan 28: Hindu temple processions with an elephant adorned in ornaments carrying the idol, with percussionists and devotees walking side by side, are no new sight in Kerala. However, a similar procession in Kerala's cultural capital, Thrissur, turned heads. Hundreds of Muslims were seen holding hands and clearing traffic to help the procession move smoothly.

Muslims made way for the passage of a Hindu temple procession during their protest against Citizenship Amendment Act(ACT) in Thrissur on Saturday, January 25.

Various Muslim organisations had organised a mass protest in the Swaraj ground in the town. On the same day, the local Bhaktapriyam temple's procession was also taking place. Stuck in a dilemma, the temple authorities approached the police and the Muslim organisations to find a solution. The Muslim organisations then promised to help proceed the temple procession without any obstacles.

Nearly a thousand people who had turned up for the protest volunteered to clear traffic and control the crowd so that the temple procession could smoothly pass through the town.

A video of the procession was shared on Facebook by the Thrissur City Police on Saturday, which showed Muslims holding hands on either side of the procession to make way.

"Humanity is bigger than religion. That's the lesson the residents of Thrissur are giving to the country. Thrissur is truly the cultural capital of Kerala," read the caption of the post in Malayalam. The video soon went viral and was viewed by over 36k views.
