Mangalore, November 28: Protesting against the pathetic condition of the inner roads under the limits of Mangalore City Corporation, the City Committee of Democratic Youth Federation of India on Monday staged a demonstration in front of the MCC building.

Dozens of people took part in the 'MCC Chalo' rally, which commenced from Ballal-Bagh and culminated in front of the MCC building, where they warned the civic body of intensifying the protest if their demands were not.

The protesters expressed their anger against the civic body's negligence towards the unmotorable inner roads of the city, pending road repair works and unscientific concertisation.

Addressing the protesters, DYFI State Vice President Muneer Katipalla held both MCC and State Government responsible pathetic condition of the inner roads of the city.

“We need not to show where the potholes are. Let Chief Minister DV Sadananda Gowda show where roads are” he said.

He also said that the so called 'Sundara Mangalore Project' is aimed at serving real estate mafia and not for the road construction or any other development activities.

There are no less than 60 wards in MCC. But, the corporators spend money only on the wards of their interests, he said.

Low quality work and improper drainage facilities have worsened the situation of unmotorable roads, he added.

DYFI city presidents BK Imtiyaz, Secretary Santhosh Bajal, Dayananda Shetty, Naveen Konchadi, Sadik Kannur and others were present.

Mangaluru, Feb 2: A local court on Saturday remanded Aditya Rao,the suspect in the Mangaluru International Airport (MIA) bomb case, to two weeks judicial custody.

Rao was produced before the Sixth Judicial First Class Magistrate Court after the 10-day police custody expired.

Rao has been in police custody since January 22 after he surrendered before the police in Bengaluru on January 21 and was later brought here.

He had allegedly planted an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) at the airport on January 20 triggering panic and later made a hoax call to the airport terminal that a bomb had been planted in an IndiGo flight.

During the last ten days, police took the accused to several places in the city and Udupi where he had frequented in the recent past.

He was also taken to the room where he stayed while he was working at a hotel in the city.

Bengaluru, May 30: People travelling to Bengaluru by flight or train must pay to get their Covid-19 tests done at designated private labs.

This is being done to improve the participation of private labs that have been approved by the Indian Council of Medical Research to do testing. Many of these labs are running at sub-optimal levels.

The new rule will also help the special categories of passengers and their attendants to leave early for home quarantine after giving the sample once the swab collection centres are established at airports and railway stations. The nodal officers at these places will coordinate in establishing the swab collection centres.

Each test will cost Rs 650 per sample. XCyton Diagnostics will cater to air passengers. Rail passengers will be tested at Neuberg Anand Reference Laboratory, Cancyte Technologies Pvt Ltd, Aster Labs, Narayana Hrudayalaya, Vydehi Hospital and Syngene International Ltd.
