Prohibitory orders in 4 taluks of Dakshina Kannada extended till July 21

July 11, 2017

Bantwal, Jul 11: Even though the trouble hit areas of Dakshina Kannada are slowly returning to normalcy, the district administration has decided to extend the prohibitory orders for 10 more days in four taluks.bc road 1

As per the previous order of the district administration, the Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code will be ended at midnight on July 11 in Bantwal, Sullia, Puttur and Belthangady taluks that fall under the limits of Dakshina Kannada district police.

However, as part of precautionary measures, on Tuesday, the deputy commissioner issued a fresh order extending the ban orders till July 21.

The orders were initially enforced in Bantwal taluk on May 27 following skirmishes between two groups. Later it was extended to the four taluks as violence spread.

The murder of a Social Democratic Party of India worker at Benjanapadavu in Bantwal on June 21 escalated the tension forcing authorities to extend prohibitory orders.

The attack on RSS activist Sharath in BC Road on July 4 by unidentified miscreants and his death in a hospital on July 7 led to further exacerbation of the communal tension.

With the fresh extension, Bantwal taluk will complete 56 continuous days of being covered under the ban order. The Mangaluru city police commissionerate area has been exempted from the order, police said.

Mangaluru, Aug 8: As visuals of the Air India Express flight crash at Kozhikode international airport emerge, one cannot help but be reminded of an eerily similar and unfortunate accident that occurred a decade ago. The August 7, 2020 tragedy brought back memories of the 2010 crash.

It was on May 22, 2010 that an Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight from Dubai to Mangaluru over shot the runway while landing at Bajpe airport and fell into a cliff. Of the 160 passengers and 6 crew members on board, 158 were killed (all crew members and 152 passengers) and only 8 survived.

Even back then, the plane had split into two. The crash has been termed as one of India's worst aviation disasters.

The final conversations between Air traffic control (ATC) and the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication of any distress.

Like the Mangaluru accident, Karipur crash too happened when the flight was attempting to land.

The captain of the aircraft which crashed at Mangaluru, Z Glucia, was an experienced pilot with 10,000 hours of flying experience and had 19 landings at the Mangalore airport. Co-pilot S S Ahluwalia, with 3,000 hours of flying experience had as many as 66 landings at this airport. Both the pilot and co-pilot were among the victims.

An investigation into the accident later found that the cause of the accident was the captain’s failure to discontinue an ‘unstabilised approach’ and his persistence to continue with the landing, despite three calls from the First Officer to ‘go-around’.
