Mangaluru, Jul 21: Amidst nationwide uproar over the murders and attacks carried out by the so called cow protectors linked to Sangh Parivar, the Dakshina Kannada district unit of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal has decided to form ‘Gau Raksha Dal’ and indirectly threatened to take lawn into their hands to “protect cows”. 

“We have lost faith in police. We must take drastic steps to protect our cows,” said VHP leader Jagadish Shenava, while revealing about the formation of Gau Raksha Dal at a press meet here today.

“The government and police have miserably failed to teach a lesson to the cattle thieves who are directly stealing cows from their sheds and smuggling and killing them. The society should collectively fight against this menace,” he said. 

He said that the Bajrang Dal will form Gau Raksha Dal in every village of Dakshina Kannada district and each unit will have 15 to 20 members who will patrol their respective areas and keep an eye on the suspected cattle lifters.

As part of fight against cattle theft, he said, the VHP and BD will jointly organised a massive rally on July 26 from Moodushedde, wherein several cases of cattle theft have been reported.  He said that over 3,000 people will take part in the rally including the seven elected BJP MLAs of the district.

Bajrang Dal leaders Praveen Kuthar, Pradeep Kumar and Bhujanga Kulal were present at the press meet.

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.

Mangaluru, Jan 1: Led by two local MLAs belonging to Bharatiya Janata Party, dozens of people today forcibly stopped toll fee collection at Talapady toll gate on the outskirts of the city allowing vehicles plying between Karnataka and Kerala on the national highway 66 to travel without paying any fee for some time.

Mangaluru City South MLA D Vedavyasa Kamath and Mangaluru City North MLA Y Bharat Shetty, who led the workers, said that the Navayuga Udupi Tollway Pvt. Ltd. (NUTPL), the concessionaire of the about 90-km-long highway widening project between Talapady and Kundapura in Karnataka, had failed to complete the project since over a decade.

The service roads and two flyovers under the project remained uncompleted. Hence motorists were facing a hardship. Notwithstanding Nalin Kumar Kateel, Dakshina Kannada MP, arranging ₹56 crore loan to the NUTPL through Axis Bank to complete the prominent Pumpwell flyover in the city, the company had failed to complete it.

The MLAs said that they stopped the toll collection as a symbolic protest to bring pressure on the company to complete the project within this month.

The BJP workers who gathered near the toll gate around 7.30 a.m. forcibly removed the barricades and made the vehicles ply without paying the fee. The workers of the company managing the toll booth did not resist.

The BJP workers said that vehicles would ply without paying toll till about 6 p.m. If the company resumed the collection during the day on Wednesday, the party workers would again forcibly stop it on Thursday, they said.

Shivaprasad Rai, in-charge of toll collection of the company at Talapady, Hejmady and Sasthana on the same highway told The Hindu that the NUTPL collected about ₹7 lakh as toll fee daily at Talapady from over 12,000 vehicles. The loss on Wednesday could be about ₹4 lakh.

The project is being implemented under build, operate and transfer basis.
