Mangalore, April 16: The Belthangady JMFC Court has upheld Vittal Malekudiya's right to education by directing Mangalore University Vice-Chancellor Prof T C Shivashankara Murthy to permit Vittal, a first year Mass Communication and Journalism student, to appear for internal assessment examinations.

The decision of the Court comes four days after the fast track court in Puttur had rejected the bail plea of the 22-year-old tribal youth, who was arrested on March 3 along with his father at his house in Kuthlur in Belthangady taluk by Anti Naxal Force on charges of alleged links with Maoists.

The JMFC Court judge, who heard the petition on Monday, directed that the VC University call allow the student to appear for internal assessment examinations.

However, Mr Malekudiya could not appear for his first internal assessment examination, as it was held a couple of hours before the courts verdict. The examinations, which started on Monday, are expected to conclude on April 20.

It can be recalled here that the same court on March 26 had directed the University to allow the arrested student to file his examination application through an authorised person.

Mangaluru, May 8: Migrant workers, stranded in Karnataka due to lockdown, staged a protest on Friday at the Central Railway Station here, demanding to be sent back to their respective native places.

The workers demanded the state government to take measures and send them back to their homes.

Maintaining social distancing and covering their faces with masks, the workers were holding placards which read -- "We want to go home Jharkhand, We want justice and we want to go home."

They appealed to the state government to arrange trains and buses to ferry them to their native places and threatened to walk home if denied transport.

Several protests have erupted in different parts of the country, such as Andhra Pradesh and Kerala, as stranded labourers took to the roads demanding to be sent back home.

The Ministry of Home Affairs on May 1 had issued an order to extend the ongoing lockdown by two more weeks from May 4 with some relaxations.
