Mysuru, Mar 16: Mysuru limped back to normality on Tuesday, a day after violence gripped the city during the bandh called by the Bharatiya Janata Party to protest the murder of its party activist Raju.

Hundreds of police personnel, including the Rapid Action Force (RAF), on Tuesday took out a flag march in trouble-hit Kyatamaranahalli and surrounding areas under Udayagiri police limits here.

DCP (law and order)?H?T?Shekar, who led the march along with SP?Abhinav Khare, told media that two companies of RAF from Coimbatore in?Tamil Nadu had arrived in the city to boost people's morale in the tense areas.

A flag march was taken out from D?Banumaiah Polytechnic College and culminated at the same spot, after passing through Basappaji Circle, Rajapatha Circle, Syed Abdul Rahman Road, Azeez Sait double road (Mahadevapura main road), Sultan Road, Usmania Masjid junction, Harischandra Ghat road, Kyatamaranahalli, disputed Alim Sadhiya Mosque junction, PF office road and Azeez Sait double road.

Apart from 240 RAF personnel that included women with self-loading rifles (SLRs), five battalions of district armed reserve (DAR) police personnel, three belonging to Karnataka State Reserve Police (KSRP)?force, mounted police and 150 other police personnel took part in the march. Vajra, an armoured vehicle of RAF, accompanied the marching contingents. Even two days after the BJP worker's murder, an eerie calm prevailed in Kyatamaranahalli and surrounding areas. Barring MG?Road near Lal Bahadur Shastry Circle, where normalcy returned, a majority of shops remained shut and houses were found bolted from inside on Kyatamaranahalli main road.

Though some shopkeepers resumed business at Tent Circle in Kyatamaranahalli, anxiety was writ large on their faces.

Except a few local people, police dotted the roads, with prohibitory orders under Section 144?CrPC extended till March 16 midnight.

All these things are happening in our great secular country only for political gains, Just image if no communal agenda/ no communal clashes/ no innocent people killing in the name of religion then do you think 80 % these elected MPs and MLAs will get elected either for Lokha sabha or in state politics??? these 80% elected with communal agenda never deserve even for office attender post!! Only God can save this country from these criminals.
