Mangalore, July 29: Mangalore is being increasingly targeted by sex mafia but the district administration and police have turned a blind eye to it, said Jagadish Karanth, State Convenor, Hindu Jagarana Vedike.

Addressing media persons at a press meet in Mangalore, Mr. Karanth defended the 'protest' carried out by some of the members belonging to his organization at a homestay in Padil where young boys and girls were manhandled.

“True, our members were there but they went there to protest. They could not tolerate the injustice and exploitation of women that is being done by certain vested interests. There is a huge sex mafia behind this. Sex tourism has made its way into Mangalore. These people have money and want place and opportunities to enjoy which they are trying to find in Mangalore. But the district administration and police have turned a blind eye to these developments”, he said.

Stating that the district administration has a responsibility towards the society, Mr. Karanth said that all illegal spas, pubs, homestays and resorts should be closed down. CCTV cameras should be installed in homestays and all people who come to use it must be made to submit documents, identity proofs along with photographs, to make sure that no prostitution and criminal activities take place in homestays.

Mr. Karanth also said that if the girls had really just been part of a birthday party and were assaulted for no reason, they should have come forward and lodged complaints against the assaulters.

Bengaluru, Jul 20: Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Kumaraswamy has urged the Karnataka government to stop putting warning signboards in front of COVID-19 patients' houses alleging that they are leading to "social discrimination and untouchability" in the present times.

"A local government warning signboards in front of the homes of COVID-19 infected people is leading to neo-social discrimination and untouchability in the new age. Even after infection, the individual and family should live with dignity. The government should immediately stop the practice of placing signboards," Kumaraswamy's first tweet read.

"Instead of placing them in front of their homes and creating untouchability, send health workers to their homes to create courage and awareness. They should be told not to leave the house. There is no such degrading practice left behind. I would like to ask Chief Minister Karnataka BS Yediyurappa to pay attention to this," he added.

The former chief minister further said that threatening to cancel the licenses of medical colleges for refusing treatment to patients would not solve the problem and urged the government to take them into confidence instead of rebuking them.

"Refusing treatment is the fault of any hospital. But for the same reason, threatening to cancel government medical college licenses is not right. There is no profit in this emergency of health. MCI also has the power to revoke the licenses of medical colleges. Remember not the government," he said.

"In this case, the government should look to the Medical Colleges to get their services in order to get them to trust them instead of getting angry. Let them focus on meeting their needs. I insist on a collective fight against the coronavirus through this," he further added.

The COVID-19 count in Karnataka reached 63,772 on Sunday, including 39,370 active cases and 23,065 cured and discharged patients.
