Mangaluru, Oct 6: Even as the Mangaluru City Corporation and MRPL are at loggerheads with each other over the repair work of bumpy Suratkal–Kana Road, the residents of the area on Wednesday staged a protest accusing both of them of running away from their responsibilities.

Under the banner of Kana Nagarika Horata Samiti, the residents took out a protest march from Suratkal and converged in front of the main entrance of Mangalore Refineries and Petrochemicals Limited.

Before reaching MRPL, the protesters stopped their padayatra' in front of Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) and BASF for some time to raise slogans against them.

Addressing the protesters near the main entrance of MRPL, Muneer Katipalla, the state president of Democratic Youth Federation of India, said that both the company and the civic body are trying to evade their responsibilities.

Criticising Mangaluru Mayor Harinath for his recent statement that he would join the protest against MRPL if it fails to take up the repair work, Mr Katipalla said that the former's responsibility is to govern and not to protest.

“Elected representatives should use their capacity and power to force the company to fulfil its responsibilities. If they cannot pressurise the company, they should tender resignations to their posts and then join the protesters,” he said.

Mr Katipalla said that both MRPL and MCC should stop drama and take necessary step to fix the road immediately. He said that the residents will intensify the protest against the company if it continues to exhibit its indifferent attitude.

Office bearers of the Samiti BK Imtiyaz, Naveen Poojary led the protest march. Hours after the protest Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner K G Jagadeesha paid a visit to Kana to inspect the road along with officers from MCC.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday launched 'Sapthapadi', a mass marriage program in Bengaluru.

The state authorities will provide a mangalsutra worth Rs 40,000 and Rs 5,000 to the groom. They will also give Rs 10,000 to the bride after marriage.

The state government has also informed that the department has shortlisted some temples where the mass marriages will be held.

Yediyurappa also confirmed that the government will help communities like Muslim and Christians also to organise mass marriage as per their respective rituals.

According to the state government guidelines, issued last year in November, both parents of the couple should attend the ceremony if the duo wants to avail benefits of this offer but those who want to marry without their parent's permission do not stand a chance here.

Also, those wanting a love marriage will not be able to reap the benefits of the scheme. The plan is to conduct about 1,000 marriages in 90-100 temples.

The couples wanting to tie the knot are expected to register themselves 30 days before the scheduled date in the temple. Following which a list will be prepared.

Bengaluru, Jan 5: BJP leader and Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa once again blamed the Congress of creating 'confusion' among the Muslim community over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act-2019 while launching a door to door campaign to dispel such rumors.

Yediyurappa was on a door-to-door campaign to make people aware of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and to allay their fears.

"Unnecessarily, the members of Congress are creating confusion among the Muslim community. I assure you that not a single Muslim will be affected because of CAA," said B. S. Yediyurappa.

"Almost all previous Prime Ministers have supported it, now Congress is creating a problem so as to create confusion among Muslims. That's why we are out on the door-to-door campaign," he said.

The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019, seeks to grant Indian citizenship to Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014.
