A senior police officer said that security was tightened in Padil, where a clash took place Sunday night and other sensitive parts with the deployment of additional forces.

Farooq Darimi, a cleric of a mosque, and two more local youths—Sirajuddin and Fayaz— were attacked by alleged Bajrang Dal activists without any provocation on Sunday night. 

Vandalism

As the news began to spread, unknown miscreants pelted stones at a few houses and vehicles belonging to one particular community with an apparent intention to exacerbate the clash.

Prajwal alias Appu, a resident of Faisalnagar near Padil claimed that a group of men barged into his house and indulged in vandalism. In fact Appu was one of the miscreants who allegedly attacked the cleric and two Muslim youths. 

The intruders damaged the furniture and allegedly threatened an elderly woman who was present inside the home.

While fleeing the miscreants damaged an Alto car parked outside the house.

After sometimes, the miscreants damaged a motorbike belonging to one Deekshit parked near the house of Selvia. An Activa scooter parked nearby was also damaged by the same group.

Meanwhile, miscreants belonging to two communities allegedly pelted stones at each other and houses of innocents. Sleuths from Mangaluru rural police station resorted to mild baton charge to disperse the mob.

Come on guys grow up, Let the people of city live with peace and love.

Let the police handle it. Why are you guys taking law on your side and breaking public properties.

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Former prime minister H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday termed as 'disturbing' the violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in Galwan Valley and said the government should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue.

He sought to know as to how Indian soldiers lost their lives during a de-escalation process and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh should come out with a clearer picture.

"Reports coming from #GalwanValley are disturbing. Why did our soldiers lose their lives during a de-escalation process? In national interest, the PM and RM should offer a clearer picture to the nation on the border issue with the Chinese. #LADAKHSTANDOFF," Gowda tweeted. An Indian Army officer and two soldiers were killed during the confrontation with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on Monday night, the first such incident in the last 45 years that reflected massive escalation in the five- week border row.

The Army said India lost an officer and two soldiers during the violent face-off, while there were casualties on the Chinese side as well.

Bengaluru, Jan 15: The Indian startups secured 12.7 billion in funding last year -- a 15% growth compared to 2018 - and Bengaluru startup community topped the list, with securing $5.3 billion across 267 deals, a new report said on Tuesday.

In total, the Indian startups attracted 766 deals in 2019, taking total deal count between 2014-2019 to 5,011, said DataLabs by Inc42 in its annual startup funding report.

Sequoia took the top spot as the most active VC in 2019 with 53 deals, followed by Accel that participated in 38 deals. Blume Ventures, Matrix Partners and Tiger Global were in the top five VCs in 2019.

"The Indian startup economy is entering new decade with over $58 billion in fundraising and 2,984 funded startups between 2014-2019," the findings showed.

With an average of $21 million, the ticket size value of funding increased by 15% in 2019.

Ecommerce and fintech -- with $2.6 billion funding each -- took the top slot with 93 deals and 125 deals, respectively.

"Ecommerce continued to remain at the top by the end of 2019. The growing investor confidence towards sub-sectors such as vertical ecommerce, social commerce and private label businesses is one major factor for ecommerce maintaining its lead," a DataLabs spokesperson said in a statement.

According to the estimates, the funding amount and deal count in 2020 will be around $12.6 billion at a 1% decline from 2019.

"Nevertheless, the investment activity is expected to rise in 2021," said the report.

The data suggests that 2019 had lowest number of startups funded (664) in the last five years, with seed-stage funding deals dropping by 53%, compared to 2016.

With $252 million in funding, seed-stage deal value fell by 44% (compared to 2018) as only 306 seed funding deals were recorded, the report said.

The enterprise tech had a blockbuster year with total funding of $1.15 billion across 114 deals in 2019. The sector recorded a 49% surge in total funding amount, compared to 2018.

The Indian startup economy saw 275 unique VCs participating in funding in 2019, said the report.
