Payyannur, Jul 12: Two political rivals were hacked to death within hours by miscreants in Payyannur as political vendetta-led violence erupted in parts of Kannur district.

Police said that C V Dhanaraj (36) a CPI (M) worker and C K Ramachandran (46), an auto-rickshaw driver and member of BMS, affiliated to BJP were the two killed on Monday night.

Dhanaraj was killed at his house at about 10 p.m. by bike-borne assailants. He was rushed to Pariyaram Medical College where he breathed his last. He is survived by his wife and two kids.

The CPI(M), which accused the RSS for committing the murder, has called for a hartal in the Payyannur Assembly constituency.

Later, by about midnight, Ramachandran who had been operating his auto-rickshaw in Payyannur town was stabbed at his house. He was taken to a private hospital where he was pronounced dead. He leaves his wife and two children behind.

The BJP said that the attacks on Ramachandran was carried out by the CPI(M) and also accused the party of carrying out attacks on the houses of two other RSS workers here.

Neither NIA probe nor outrage on this murder since they did in Joseph's hand chop case. Is hand chop is more dangerous than murder?? like cow is more safer than human in India.

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.
