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.

Bengaluru, Feb 13: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Thursday said the government had initiated measures to implement the Sarojini Mahishi report as the 12-hour Karnataka bandh call by several pro-Kannada organisations under the banner of Karnataka Sanghatanegala Okkoota began on Thursday.

“Government always stood for Kannada and Kannadigas and initiated measures to implement the Sarojini Mahishi report,” Yediyurappa said. Meanwhile, in Bengaluru, Ola, Uber and auto services were affected even though buses were plying as usual. Security has also been beefed up in Bengaluru after stones were pelted at a Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet, though no one was injured.

Bangalore University has postponed all postgraduate (PG) exams scheduled for today. A pro-Kannada activist, Praveen Shetty, was kept under house arrest and police have detained a few people, including those involved in Cauvery protests and other bandh cases.

The organisations are demanding the implementation of a report by former union minister Sarojini Mahishi that recommends a certain percentage of jobs to Kannadigas in public sector undertakings, private companies, and multinational companies. The report was submitted in 1984 but is yet to be implemented.
