Mr Borse, under whose leadership a peace meeting was organised in Savanoor village of Puttur taluk on Saturday, a day after brutal attack on two Muslim auto-rickshaw drivers by the miscreants belonging to another community, urged the people not to give communal tinge to each and every incident.

He promised to conduct an impartial probe into the Friday's attack that triggered communal tension in the region.

Critical condition

Meanwhile, the two victims-Mohammed Asif (22) and Khalandar (24), both residents of Savanur- have been admitted to two spate private hospitals. The condition of Asif, who was attacked with swords and iron rods, is still critical. He is in the ICU.

Khalandar, who is in a condition to communicate, has identified the assailants as Monappa Gowda, Darnappa Gowda, Kushalappa, Babu Gowda, Poovani Gowda, his three children Prasad, Balakirshina and Keshava.

Attack by gang

According to the complaint lodged at a the jurisdictional police station, Monappa Gowda, a resident of Idyadi near Savanur, had hired Asif's auto rickshaw on Friday evening.

When the auto-rickshaw reached near Monappa's house, he asked the driver to wait on promise of fetching money from the house. Meantime, Poovani Gowda and his son Prasad, approached the auto-rickshaw and attacked the driver after an argument. He managed to escape and broke his fast at a mosque.

After spending some time in the mosque, he decided to return home. As he had to go through the same route, he requested his friend Khalandar, who is also an auto-rickshaw driver, to accompany him.

When the duo reached Idyadi, the same assailants along with few others waylaid their auto-rickshaw and toppled it. They attacked the duo with lethal weapons like sword and iron rods.

Two held

Meanwhile, a team of police attached to Kadaba police station managed to arrest Poovani Gowda (62) and Monappa Gowda (67) for attack on rickshaw drivers. Cases have been registered against seven persons in connection with the incident.

Counter complaint

Soon after the victims lodged a complaint, the wife of Poovani Gowda, one of the assailants, also lodged a complaint with the same police station accusing the victim of attempting to outrage her modesty.

In her complaint she claimed that Asif tried to snatch her mangala sutra and misbehaved with another woman, when they intervened during a fight between Asif and Poovani Gowda.

We Muslims will have day to laugh at these stupid arrogant attackers, who bow down to the hate Mongers speeches...
We believe even if we dont get justice here... Our creator will give us that Justice which will not be a least injustice .
Have Patience brother... YOU are fasting for the one who created all that exists including the one who attacked YOU ...
Your compensation will not be gone in VAIN ... It will be there with the CREATOR. The arrogant may seem its finished.. But GOD is aware of all that happens.. A believer will need to be patience when those who are in POWER gives a blind eye.

I request YOU to forgive the attacker and give him the real message of ISLAM of SABR... May ALLAH reward YOU and cure your pain.

MR borse did very good job by arranging a peace meet. it s not a communal clash. some misunderstanding. whatever attacker made its unlawful serious action must be taken against them, before doing anything need to think 100 times. few people's fight may create unrest in entire region.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: To deal with the problem of animal waste and illegal slaughterhouses in Bengaluru, Mayor M Gowtham Kumar held discussions with concerned departments and consultants to devise a strategy.

Speaking to ANI, Kumar said, "There are some illegal slaughterhouses in and around Bengaluru. We had a discussion with our Special Commissioner (Health) and Chief Health Officer (CHO) also to take up necessary action. We had a discussion last week also."

He also stated that a program has been framed to find illegal slaughterhouses and to shift animal waste generated every day.

"We have framed a program to find illegal slaughterhouses and design them properly. We have planned with our consultants that for the animal waste generated daily, we need four compactors to shift it either to Hoskote or another place that we have identified. We are on it", he said.

The segregation of animal waste and illegal slaughterhouses has been a continued issue in the Bengaluru civic area, a relief from which is expected after the implementation of proposed steps.
