They also alleged that some Kerala-based organizations and criminals are disrupting peace in Bantwal.

BJP district president Sanjeeva Matandoor said that the state government is inept at controlling law and order and hence it has imposed Section 144 in Bantwal for the last 45 days and rest of the four taluks from the past three weeks.

Satyajit's wife Savitha Suratkal alleged that around 50 police barged into her house at 2am on Monday in search of her husband and that too without a woman police, which is against the law.

VHP leader Jagadessha Shenava wanted a branch of NIA to be opened in DK to thwart the advances of communal forces based in Kerala in the district.

Do not end your life if you are depressed. Read Quran in your language and understand the creator. If you cant then just talk to Muslim scholar in nearby Masjid. Hope that will give you permanent relief. In Sha Allah. I request all Muslim brothers and sisters to take care of your neighbors and friends specifically non-muslims.
