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.

Karnataka govt puts on hold decision to drop some chapters from social science textbooks

News Network

July 31,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 31: The Karnataka government on Wednesday put on hold a controversial proposal to drop certain chapters, including on Islam, Christianity, Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali, from social science textbooks to reduce the 2020-21 syllabi for students in classes 1-10.

Citing the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption caused to the academic calendar of the year, the government had earlier dropped the chapter on Tipu Sultan and Hyder Ali from the Class 7 social science textbook, saying chapters on Tipu Sultan have been retained in the Class 6 and 10 textbooks.

The move did not go down well with the opposition, which saw certain ulterior motives behind the decision.

Apparently under sharp criticism, the Department of Public Instruction issued a new notification on Wednesday "on the directions of the Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar".

There is a delay in opening the schools during the academic year 2020-21 due to COVID-19 pandemic, said the latest order.

In this context, the order said, chapters were dropped to fit in 120 days of the academic year for classes 1 to 10 and the same was published in the department's website.

"However, on the directions of the Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, the decision to drop certain chapters has been put on hold. A review will be done following which the deleted chapters will be uploaded in the website," the order read.

Earlier in the day, Mr Kumar had issued a statement, saying that the decision to truncate the syllabus has not been finalised yet. He also made it clear that his department would not remove chapters unnecessarily.

Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah had attacked the government on the issue.

"The government, which has failed to control the spread of coronavirus, is using it as an opportunity to push its clandestine agenda of saffronising the textbooks," Siddaramaiah tweeted.

Dammam-Mangaluru first direct repatriation flight under VBM on June 21

June 10,2020

Mangaluru, June 10: The first direct repatriation flight from Damma to Mangaluru International Airport under Vande Bharat Mission will be operated on June 21.

Thousands of people from coastal districts of Karnataka are stranded without flights in different parts of Saudi Arabia after the announcement of covid lockdown in March this year.

Even though the government of India launched Vande Bharat Mission to repatriate Indian expatriate through special flights, no flight was scheduled from Saudi Arabia to Mangaluru.

Several organisations had exerted pressure on the government of India and government of Karnataka to bring back stranded Kannadigas from Saudi Arabia.

With the sole intention of helping the stranded Kannadigas, a few philanthropists in Saudi Arabia last month formed an NGO called Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum under the leadership of Zakariya Bajpe and Sheikh Expertise.
