Mangaluru, Jul 12: In a bizarre incident, a taluk panchayat member allegedly assaulted a doctor at Kokkada village near Dharmasthala after the latter asked the former to be cautious while driving.

Dr Ganesh Bhat (48), an Ayurvedic practitioner, who suffered nose injuries in the attack, got admitted to a private hospital in Nelyadi.

According to Dr Bhat he had been to a temple on Monday morning in his car. Lakshminarayana T M, a member of local taluk panchayat, too had visited the same temple

While returning from the temple, Lakshminarayana moved his vehicle out in the reverse direction rashly without noticing Dr Bhat's car. However, Dr Bhat averted the collision by moving his vehicle aside.

After this, Dr Bhat asked the TP member to be cautious while driving in the reverse direction.

Angered over this, Mr. Lakshminarayana allegedly barged into the former's clinic and assaulted him at around 4 p.m.

Dr. Bhat said that he got admitted to hospital after his nose started bleeding and he had severe body ache following the assault.

A complaint has been filed with the Dharmasthala police, he added.

Shivamogga, Jun 20: Shivamogga District unit of Congress led by party veteran Kagodu Thimmappa staged a protest against state government's proposal to amend the land reform act, which will allow non-agriculturist to buy farmland.

The leaders of Farmers' Union (Raith Sangh) also staged a protest at Mahaveer circle and questioned CM's stand as he took oath in the name of farmers.

The district congress staged a protest at the premise of the Deputy Commissioner office in Shivamogga city.

The protesters termed Karnataka Government led by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa as an anti-farmers government.

According to Congress and Raith Sang, the proposed amendments to Karnataka State Land reforms act 1961 will cause harm to farmers.

"According to the proposed amendment, non-agriculturists like business tycoons can also purchase the agriculture land. This will help the businessman and will be harmful to farmers," protesters said.
