Mangalore, Sep 18: In an incident of apparent hate crime, a group of miscreants allegedly belonging to Bajrang Dal, pounced on a few Muslim students at a bus stop in the city and brutally assaulted them.

The incident took place at Pumpwell Bus Stop, near Thaqwa Masjid on Thursday afternoon when a group of students from Mangalore Institute of Fire Safety Engineering (MIFSE) were waiting for bus. The assailants stabbed one of the students and brutally assaulted five others.

The condition of Kalandar Shahid, who was stabbed by the miscreants is said to be critical. Five other students identified as Shameem, Aashiq, Shahbaz, Mohammed Shahid and Asfatulla also have been hospitalized with multiple injuries.

Sources said that the two dozens of assailants who came in a Toofan Trax before fleeing the scene in the same vehicle.

A tense atmosphere has prevailed in the college and Pumpwell area following Thursday's attack.

Even though the attack appears to be part of a dispute between two groups of students in the college, it is learnt that the communal forces beyond the campus also had actively involved in the crime to trigger tension in the region.

It is learnt that the college had witnessed a small clash between two groups of students approximately a week ago. The college principal had intervened to settle the issue that erupted during a photo session at the end of a programme.

Following the compromise in the presence of principal, one group of students, which had connections with the local leaders of a communal outfit, had threatened the other group of œa worse revenge .

The victims have reportedly identified few of the assailants including Pradeep Pumpwell, and Pramod and Punith who are said to be Bajrang Dal activists.

Alappuzha, Jan 4: The management committee of a mosque in Kerala is all set to solemnize the wedding of a Hindu couple, setting yet another instance of the communal harmony prevailing in Kerala.

The Cheravally Muslim Jamaat Committee at Kayamkulam in Alappuzha district in South Kerala is conducting the marriage of Anju and Sharath after the bride's mother approached the Jamaat authorities seeking help. 

The marriage will be held at the mosque premises on January 19 as per Hindu rituals and the Jamaat Committee has also prepared the invitations.

Anju's father Ashokan died a few years back and her mother Bindhu was struggling to win bread for her three children. Nujumudeen Alummoottil, a businessman and secretary of the Jamaat had helped the family earlier also.

Hence Bindu sought his help for the marriage of Anju. Nujumudeen discussed it with other members of the Jamaat committee and members of the mosque.

Najumudeen said that there was no hesitation from anyone on conducting the marriage by the mosque at its premises. A gift in cash and gold would be also given to the couple.

Kerala recently witnessed a church allowing the Muslim believers who participated in an anti-CAA meet to offer namaz at the church premises and another church conducting a carol service with the youth of the parish dressed up in traditional Muslim attire.

Kerala is unique in India for cordial relation between different religions.  However, this is not being digested by sanghis and are trying to build gulf between the communities.  I am sure that people will not let theese anti national succeed in their wicked behaviour.   This communal harmoney is a slap on the faces of enemies of society.    Well done keralites.  Salute to all of you.

Bengaluru, Jun 29: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah along with Congress leaders on Monday rode a bicycle from his residence to Minsk Square to protest against the hike in fuel prices.

KPCC President DK Shivakumar was also seen riding a bicycle along with other members of the Congress party to Minsk Square where the party staged the protest.

During the protest, Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar along with party leaders carried a bike on their shoulders.

"We are carrying out our duty today. At the time of the UPA government's rule, when there was any hike in fuel prices, several BJP leaders had made bold statements. It is ironic that today, at the time of this COVID-19 pandemic, even despite the price of barrels falling, they have increased fuel prices," said Shivakumar.

"In Delhi, diesel prices have exceeded petrol prices. We must protest against this. The DCP can file whatever case he wants to. Despite several cases against us, we have never been shaken up. They are inconveniencing people and causing the people to burn in hell. These people must be protected," he added.

With the hike in fuel prices, the petrol prices stand at Rs 83.04/litre (increase by Rs 0.05), and the diesel prices stand at Rs 76.58/litre (increase by Rs 0.13) in Bengaluru, according to a price notification of state oil marketing companies.

The Congress has termed the increase in the prices of petrol and diesel as "unjust" and "thoughtless", and urged the Central government to roll back the increase with immediate effect and pass on the benefit of low oil prices directly to the people.
