The accused has been identified as Shareef, who is also a Dargah devotee, but not associated with any group. It is learnt that he destroyed the headstones placed over the graves of Late UT Fareed and Naseema Fareed, the parents of local Mr Khader, after juma Namaz.

Police sources said that Shareef himself surrendered to the police and confessed to the crime hours after desecrating the graves. Sources said that he was let off by police with a warning as Mr Khader's family did not file any complaint.

The desecration took place a day after two groups of people clashed on the Dargah premises over the appointment to the post of president of managing committee of mosque and Dargah.

A new committee was constituted duly electing Haji Abdul Rashid as president of the dargah committee on Tuesday. However, the name of Bukhari was announced by another group for the post the same evening, leading to a tiff within the community.

The matter got settled with police intervention giving recognition to the duly elected committee. Again the issue erupted on Thursday evening with supporters of both groups engaging in clashes.

Meanwhile, the newly elected president has condemned the desecration of the graves of the parents of Mr Khader. He said that Late UT Fareed, had greatly contributed towards the development of Dargah during his tenure as the MLA.

Bengaluru, Aug 4: With preparations underway for conducting exams for the final semester/ year students in the state, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan on Monday directed the respective universities to conduct exams for the backlog papers as well.

"In the wake of COVID-19, it has been decided to hold exams only for the students of final semester/year courses. It has come to our notice that some universities have decided against conducting exams for final year students who have a backlog to clear from previous semesters. This is unpardonable," the Deputy Chief Minister said.

"Our intention is to see that the final year students finish their course. In the present situation, conducting only final semester exams won't help. We have to help the students in clearing their backlogs," added Ashwathnarayan, directing all universities to compulsorily conduct these exams.

Meanwhile, Ashwathnarayan thanked the staff and officials of various government departments who were responsible for successfully conducting the CET exams even amidst the difficult situation in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.

"In all, 1,94,419 students had registered for the CET exams, of which 1,75,428 wrote the exams. The percentage of students who took up the exams this year was equivalent to that of the previous years, in normal times," the DCM informed.

"After we successfully conducted the exams, Arunachal Pradesh is going to conduct the Public Service Commission exams on the lines of how we successfully conducted the exams. Likewise, even our KPSC has said it will conduct the exams. We must appreciate the good work of the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), which has set an example for others," Ashwathnarayan said.

The deputy chief minister said that 33 colleges in various districts across the state faced shortage of land and that it is the responsibility of the District Commissioners (DCs) to get the lands sanctioned for all these colleges.
In Bagalkot district alone land has not been sanctioned for six degree colleges, he said.

Reacting to this, Bagalkot DC Captain Rajendra assured to look into the matter as soon as he receives the proposal from department officials.

"Similarly, there is shortage of land for five Diploma colleges and 28 ITI colleges in different parts of the state. The DCs must immediately pay attention to this. Once they get the land, buildings will come up within no time," the Karnataka deputy chief minister said.
