Mangalore, January 1: In a major reshuffle in police department, Karnataka government on Sunday transferred several IPS officers including Labhu Ram, the Superintendent of Police of Dakshina Kannada.

Mr Ram, a 2004 batch IPS officer, has been posted as the SP of Davanagere district. He had taken charge as the SP of DK in March 2011 following the transfer of A Subrahmanyeshwara Rao.

Abhishek Goyal is expected to replace Mr Ram in Dakshina Kannada.

The development comes in the backdrop of Sangh Parivar's demand to transfer him following the alleged 'police atrocity' on Hindutwa activists, who had pelted stones at police station in Sullia recently.

It can be mentioned here that in the aftermath of attack on police station, two cops had been suspended. The action against the cops was in the wake of the report by the State Additional Director General of Police Bipin Gopalkrishna who had probed the case including the stoning of the station and the reported police atrocities on the Hindutwa activists.

Kozhikode, Jun 14: A mosque in Kuttichira of Kozhikode has found a unique way to avoid crowding amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The committee that runs the mosque has started issuing smart cards to people for offering prayers and simultaneously encouraging social distancing.

"The committee has given smart cards with numbers to the people in the surroundings of the Masjid. One who enters the mosque premises has to rub their hands with sanitizers. They also have to tell their identity on camera. The automatic system has been put in place to save the address and phone number. Next time onwards they have to say their smart card number only so that other details will be automatically filled," said Muhammad Sajjad, who is part of the Mosque committee.

"The door of the mosque will open automatically after swiping the card. We have fit in a sensor on the doors. We have also made marks inside the mosque area so that people can abide by social distancing norm," he added.

A couple of days back the Kerala government has rolled out an order allowing the opening of places of worship, malls and restaurants from June 9 in strict accordance with guidelines and social distancing norms. As per the guidelines, pregnant women and those with co-morbidities should not visit any places of worship. Those with symptoms should not be allowed.
