Superintendent of Police D C Rajappa has confirmed that all the arrested were the members of the student wing of Sri Ram Sene, an extremist organization led by Pramod Mutalik.

The accused have been identified as Rajesh Siddaramaiah Matha (19), Arun Vagmore (20), Parashu Rama Vagmore (20), Sunil Madivalappa Agasar (18), Eshwar Navi (18) and Mallana Gowda Vijaya Kumar Patil. Among them Rajesh Siddaramaiah Matha is the president of the student wing of Sri Rama Sene.

The SP said that the efforts were on to trace one more person.

During enquiry police found that a two-wheeler was parked in front of the tehsildar office on the day of the incident. When they took the owner of the two-wheeler and his friend into custody, they revealed the names of the other students, he said.

The sudden appearance of Pakistani flag at tahsildar's office during New Year celebrations had spurred violence in Sindgi and surroundings. Miscreants had damaged vehicles and pelted stones at shops in the town.

A bundh call was also given by various organisations including Sri Rama Sene and Bajrang Dal to protest against hoisting of Pak flag.

It is alleged that the incident was a conspiracy of Sri Rama Sene, which wanted to create communal riot in the region.

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.
