Mangaluru, Jan 2: In a fresh case of communal vigilantism, a group of trouble mongers, suspected to be activists of a saffron outfit, on Tuesday pounced on two male and two female students of a pre-university college hurling abuses at them just because they were together in a tourist spot on the outskirts of the coastal city despite belonging to different faiths.

The incident took place at Manasa Amusement & Water Park in Pilikula, one of the prominent tourist destinations in the region.

It is said that a group of students from Pompei PU College in Aikala had been to the Park in the morning. They belonged to three different religions. All of a sudden they were rounded up by the miscreants who started thrashing them. The miscreants repeatedly touched the girls inappropriately and abused them.

Even though the local police rushed to the spot after sometime, the miscreants did not stop their goondaism. A video, which went viral on social media, shows a suspected saffron activist attacking one of the girls in front of police when the two girls were about to board a police car.

Hassan, Feb 9: Accusing the Centre for treating Karnataka as its enemy Former Minister and Congress leader UT Khader on Saturday said that the state did not get support from the Centre on the Mahadayi issue and flood relief and even the Union Budget.

Speaking to the media here, he said that the state has elected 25 BJP Lok Sabha members. Three from the state were Ministers in the Union Cabinet and another MP has been appointed president of the party’s state unit.

'None of them have spoken about the injustice done to the state in the budget. The budget document announced Rs 18,600 crore for the suburban railway in Bengaluru. But, ultimately the amount earmarked for the project is only Rs 1 crore. How can any BJP leader justify this?', the Congress leader wondered.
