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.

Bengaluru, May 27: Former Karnataka chief minister and JD-S leader HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday said that the state government should withdraw the decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Hindutva ideologue Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.

"The state government's decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Savarkar is a disgrace to those who have struggled for the country's prosperity. This doesn't give a good name to the state government," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"There are many great people who worked for the development of the country before and after independence. Their names could have been used for this bridge. Do other states name their bridges after our leaders? On behalf of the people of the state, I urge the state government to take a step back from this decision," he added.

The newly built Yelahanka bridge was named after Savarkar last year in a BBMP council meeting. Later it was sent to state government for approval. Tomorrow, the bridge is likely to be inaugurated for public use.

Benglauru, May 25: Nearly one thousand people in the capital city of Karnataka have lost several crores of rupees to online fraudsters during the two months of covid-19 lockdown.

According to official sources, 962 cases of online frauds have been registered in various police stations across Bengaluru March 23 to May 19. 

On an average, 18 cases were reported every day. However, this number isn’t unusually high compared to normal times, according to police. The highest number of cases was registered in west division (227). 

What baffles the cops is the brazenness with which fraudsters attacked. Many fraudsters duped people in the name of providing jobs, insurance money, Employees’ Provident Fund, renewal of credit/debit cards. 
Many people lost money while procuring groceries, alcohol, masks and hand sanitisers delivered at the doorstep. Olx and Facebook scams thrived during the prolonged lockdown. 

Police said malicious links were shared on mobile phones asking recipients to download the Aarogya Setu app and seeking banking information, all targeted at stealing phone data. 

An officer said many were glued to their phones, and cybercriminals took advantage of this, sometimes pretending to be bank representatives wanting to issue/ renew credit/debit cards.
