Mangalore, April 25: In yet another shocking incident of crime in the city, an auto-rickshaw driver was stabbed by a gang of four miscreants under the limits of Kavoor police station late on Tuesday night.

The injured has been identified as M Raveendra (29), who had recently shifted his house from Urwa Stores to Kavoor.

Police have denied the possibility of involvement of the communal forces in the incident. They are of the suspicion that some old animosity between the miscreants and driver might be the reason for the attack.

Eyewitness said that the assailants, who arrived in a car, waylaid the auto-rickshaw near a bar in Kavoor and assaulted Raveendra with knife leaving severe injuries on his back and waist. The assailants fled the scene within a few seconds.

The incident occurred around 10:00 pm, when the driver was returning home after dropping a couple of passengers near the bar, sources said.

The local residents, who saw the driver lying on the road in a pool of blood, took him to a private hospital immediately for emergency treatment. Hospital sources on Wednesday said that he was out of danger.

Kavoor police are investigating the matter after registering a case.

Newsroom, Jan 24: BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has been booked by Kerala police over a misleading and communally provocative social media post.

Karandlaje had tweeted that that Hindus from a colony in Kuttipuram in Malappuram district were denied water supply as they supported the the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). 

"Kerala is taking baby steps to become another Kashmir. Hindus of Kuttipuram Panchayat of Malappuram was denied water supply as they supported #CAA2019. #SevaBharati has been supplying water ever since. Will Lutyens telecast this intolerance of PEACEFULS frm God's Own Country!?," she tweeted. 

A case has been booked under section 153(A) of IPC (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race etc). Karandlaje took to Twitter to slam the Kerala government, and said it had lodged a complaint against her instead of acting against the discrimination faced by dalit families of Cherukunnu. 

"It is high time the society unites against these pressure tactics of a non-performing, biased left government," she said. 

Karandlaje claimed that the CAA had been accepted by both houses of Parliament and people supporting the Act were facing boycott in business and were being denied basic amenities and jobs. "The CPI(M) government is blind to all these incidents across Kerala, but files a case against me for speaking the truth!" she retorted.

According to reportage from multiple outlets, the colony in Malappuram district's Kuttippuram was dependent on a private individual for water; then came accusations that they were denied the water for attending BJP's pro-CAA rally. 

A resident of the colony was quoted by a newspaper, “We were denied drinking water because our husbands participated in a meeting organised to gather support for the CAA. Some people told the family that they should not give drinking water to us because CAA is a threat to the people in their community.” 

However, the individual in question denied the accusation, claiming a lack of water because of technical issues.

The case was registered after a complaint by lawyer Subhash Chandran, a resident of Malappuram. Aravindan E.A., SI of Kuttippuram police, said, "From a private person's borewell, water was being provided to the people of the colony. This motor had taken for agricultural work and he was recently issued a warning by State Electricity Board. He was told that if he uses the motor for any other purpose, power supply would be disconnected. He then had stopped using the pump following the crisis worsened.”
