Mangaluru, Oct 6: A Muslim youth was attacked by a group of miscreants belonging to a Hindtuva fringe group after a girl belonging to Hindu community shared seat with him on board a Bengaluru-bound KSRTC bus.

ksrtcThe attack took place at KSRTC bus stand in Madikeri on Monday night. The next day a case was registered at the police station in Sullia from where Mohammed Anees and the Hindu girl had boarded the bus.

Though the victim and the girl were residents of Sullia they did not know each other. Since the bus was almost packed, the conductor asked them to share the same seat which could accommodate three persons.

A few passengers, said to be activists of a Hindutva group, raised objections and started a fight. The trouble mongers finally left the bus after the bus staff and other passengers intervened.

However, they passed on the news to their counterparts in Madikeri. When the bus reached Madikeri KSRTC bus stand, the activists pulled out the boy from the bus and assaulted him, sources said.

Sullia police have registered a case under Indian Penal Code (IPC) 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), 506 (criminal intimidation), 341 (wrongful restraint) and 298 (uttering, words, etc., with deliberate intent to wound the religious feelings of any person). The investigation is on.

These uncultured porkis make their earnings through wrong doings for petty cash and liquor thrown by people from kalladka and pumpwell

These porkis are not doing in love with their community or to protect hindu sisters, when so many of them are being exploited sexually daily by their own brothers.

They have only hatred towards Muslims Christians and Dalits. Bcos they envy empowerment of minorites and backward class

Bus conductor and Madikeri depot personnel didn't act as per law. Under such circumstances, bus is required to be diverted to nearby police station in the interest of bus and safety of passengers. Conductor didn't consider safety of passengers and property over reaching destination.

Wondering what kind of training the KSRTC management gives to conductors and drivers. Government and KSRTC should think of it.

Bengaluru, Jan 28: Brace for hefty traffic penalties as the state government is all set to reverse a notification on revised fines which came into effect last September following pushback from road users and opposition parties.

The Karnataka government will implement traffic penalties as stipulated in the amended Motor Vehicles Act, 2019, in a phased manner following a diktat from the Centre. The government did not specify the timeline for it.

“At a recent meeting of transport ministers from various states, the Union government explained why it wanted to implement these huge fines. We found it convincing and will implement it in its original form,” said transport minister Laxman Savadi on Monday.

Savadi said India’s image globally has taken a beating due to the high number of road deaths and the Centre wants to change it at any cost. However, he said the entire set of hefty fines would not be reintroduced all at once.

BJP govt revised rates in Sept

The BJP government last September had revised fines on compoundable offences and those which are fined on the spot by traffic cops by 50%- 80%, barring drunken driving and racing.

As per the revised rates, helmetless riding attracted a penalty of Rs 500 against Rs 1,000 notified by the Centre. Driving without a licence attracted a fine of Rs 1,000 for

two- and three-wheelers and Rs 2,000 for light motor vehicles as against the earlier Rs 5,000 for all types of vehicles.

The central government recently told states and Union Territories they should enforce fines as per the amended Act and they cannot be rolled back. The road transport and highways ministry said fines cannot be reduced below the minimum amount fixed by law, unless the President gives his assent.

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who reached the national capital on Thursday, said he will discuss the much-awaited Ministry expansion with the BJP high command.

"It's been long that I visited Delhi. I will meet the party national president J P Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah and take their suggestions on the cabinet expansion," Yediyurappa told reporters.

The chief minister said he will also call on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and discuss about development issues related to Karnataka.

Yediyurappa has been anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants.

Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in cabinet expansion, alleging that he was weak and that the administration had collapsed.

As the chief minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the chief minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant.
