Mangalore, July 3: The district unit of Karnataka Komu Souharda Vedike (KKSV) has urged the central government to declare the undivided Dakshina Kannada district as a communally sensitive region besides implementing the Prime Minister's 15 point programme that deals with action against perpetrators of communal crimes.

Addressing media persons at a press meet in Mangalore on Tuesday, Suresh Bhat Bakrabail, President, KKSV, DK, said that incidents of disturbing peace in the region have been taking place on a regular basis in the district of late. The attack on Holy Hill prayer hall, attacks involving cow transportation issue at Jeppu, Kalladka and Kottara testify this, Mr. Bakrabail said.

Stating that 'Sanathan Sanstha', an organisation under the radar of National Investigation Agency (NIA), had organised a lecture on 'Hindu Rashtra' in one of the prestigious colleges of the city, besides distributing provocative literature and 'Hindu Rashtra' calenders, Mr. Bakrabail said that police and district administration are watching the proceedings as mere spectators.

Cases have been registered against the likes of Dr. Binayak Sen, K K Shahina, Soni Sori, Seema Azad besides other human rights activists and journalists but no action is being taken against communal forces who want to build a 'Hindu Rashtra', Mr. Bakrabail said.

K L Ashok, State Chief Secretary, KKSV, alleged that incidents of communal violence have been on the rise of late as BJP government is trying to divert people's attention away from its corruption and create a Hindu vote bank.

The central government must implement the 13th and 14th points of the Prime Minister's 15 point programme to tackle communal crimes immediately, he demanded. The points provide that impartial police officers must be appointed in communally sensitive areas. Controlling communal disharmony is one of the prime duties of the district SP. The points also provide that strict action be taken against perpetrators of communal violence and special courts be set up to handle such cases, Mr. Ashok said.

KKSV members P B D'Sa, Victor D'Silva, Mohammed Kakkinje, Kabir Ullal and others were present.

Bengaluru, Feb 18:  A fan of Kannada film star Darshan smashed the face of a police constable with a boulder when the latter asked him to come in the queue to a party to celebrate the star’s birthday.

The incident happened past midnight on February 15 near the residence of the film star where his birthday was being celebrated.

The injured police constable has been identified as Devaraj, attached to the Jnana Bharathi police station.

The film star’s managers had not made arrangements to handle a huge crowd that gathered near his residence and police had a tough time controlling the crowd.

Constable Devaraj was deputed to duty at the party and tried to get the crowd to fall in line.

As the police carried out a mild lathi-charge to control the crowd, a fan of Darshan came up with a boulder in his hand and smashed the face of the constable Devaraj from very close distance. The constable collapsed on the spot and the attacker ran away.

The impact was such that Devaraj’s nose was fractured and he sustained an eye injury. He was admitted to a private hospital and his condition is said to be serious.

The R R Nagar police have registered a case under IPC sections 353 and 352. The cops have launched a hunt for the accused and they are obtaining CCTV footage from the spot.

A complaint is being registered against the organisers of the event and an investigation is on. Several neighbours of Darshan have also complained to the police about the chaos on February 15.
