Dharwad, Feb 16: Rich tributes were paid to the 44 CRPF jawans killed in an attack by Pakistan sponsored Jaish-E-Mohemmed terrorist at Awantipore in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. Members of several organizations visited the Kargil War Memorial at the deputy commissioner’s office premises on Friday and offered floral tributes to the slain soldiers.

Condolence meetings and candle light marches were also held at several places. While the mourners expressed grief over the attack, there was loud demand from people to take severe action against Pakistan and terrorist camps to avenge the killings.

Cutting across party lines, leaders and citizens said they stood by the families of the soldiers, armed forces and the Central government. They said they would support action against Pakistan which has been sponsoring terrorists against India. They also welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement that the armed forces have been given a green signal to do whatever is necessary to avenge the killings of Indian jawans and teach Pakistan an unforgettable lesson. Merchants, lawyers, students, teachers, members of Dalit Sangharsha Samiti and other organizations held separate meetings to condole the death of the jawans.

Members of Facebook group Dharwad Bonds took out a candle light march from Kadapa Maidan while members of Veer Sawarkar Geleyara Balaga held a meeting at Malamaddi.

Former minister Vinay Kulkarni along with Congress workers placed a wreath at the Kargil Stoopa while BJP workers and corporators offered floral tributes. JD(S) members too visited the memorial and offered tributes. Krishna Joshi and Chandrashelhar Aminagad of Uttara Karnataka Sainik Kalyana Samiti also paid tributes.

Merchants Association member Uday Yandigeri and Dharwad Bar Association president R U Bellakki demanded a conclusive action against Pakistan by harbouring terrorists and running a proxy war against 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.
