Mangaluru, Jul 20: Dakshina Kannada district unit of the Social Democratic Party of India has demanded the resignation of BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje for telling lies to union home minister and baselessly accusing the party of supporting the accused in murders reported in the State.’sobha

He said that Karandlaje had erred in including the name of Ashok Poojary, a victim of assault, in the list of 23 persons murdered in the State in the last four years.

This list was submitted along with Ms. Karandlaje’s letter to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh seeking investigation by National Investigation Agency of the murder of RSS activist Sharath and 22 others.

Mr. Bellare said that among the 23 mentioned in the list, one has committed suicide.

There are a few cases where victims have died following a fight for personal reasons and also because of gang fights. The Udupi MP has falsely accused SDPI of supporting those arrested in those cases.

Mr. Bellare said that Karandlaje should seek an apology in public for giving an erroneous report to the Union Home Minister and falsely accusing SDPI of supporting the accused.

“If she fails to do it, we will seek legal advice and file a defamation case against Ms. Karandlaje,” Mr. Bellare told reporters.

Chamaranagara, Mar 29: As many as 595 Tamil Nadu-based fishermen, who were working in Mangaluru, crossed the Karnataka border and reached their state via Chamarajanagar on Saturday.

Police said following the lockdown, the fishermen had left Mangaluru in more than 20 vehicles. The fishermen crossed the Karnataka border through Punajur check-post. However, the vehicles returned after dropping them near Hasanur check-post in Tamil Nadu.

As the fishermen had no proper documents, they were stopped by Tamil Nadu Police. However, the police allowed them after screening. The Tamil Nadu government arranged vehicles to ferry them, said a police officer.

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.
