Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, district BJP president Sanjeeva Mathandur and former MLC Monappa Bhandary were among those who were detained by the police in front of Zilla Panchayat office. However, all of them were released later.

It is learnt that the agitators raised provocative slogans when the Tipu Jayanti celebration commenced at the Netravati hall of Zilla Panchayat. The protest was staged illegally in spite of permission denial by the police.

In fact the administration the district administration has clamped prohibitory orders under section 144?CrPC for four days from November 9 to 12.

Prior to detention, Mr Kateel came down heavily on the State government for celebrating the birth anniversary of Tipu Sultan despite the stiff opposition from BJP. Tipu was “anti-Hindu” and had destroyed temples, Mr Kateel said, adding that he had waged a war against the British just to save his throne. More details awaited.

Mangaluru: In a decisive move to tackle the city’s deteriorating sanitation infrastructure, the Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) has announced a massive ₹1,200 crore action plan to overhaul its underground drainage (UGD) network.

The initiative, spearheaded by Deputy Commissioner and MCC Administrator Darshan HV, aims to bridge "missing links" in the current system that have left residents grappling with overflowing sewage and environmental hazards.

The Breaking Point

The announcement follows a high-intensity phone-in session on Thursday, where the DC was flooded with grievances from frustrated citizens. Residents, including Savithri from Yekkur, described a harrowing reality: raw sewage from apartments leaking into stormwater drains, creating a "permanent stink" and turning residential zones into mosquito breeding grounds.

"We are facing immense difficulties due to the stench and the health risks. Local officials have remained silent until now," one resident reported during the session.

The Strategy: A Six-Year Vision

DC Darshan HV confirmed that the proposed plan is not a temporary patch but a comprehensive six-year roadmap designed to accommodate Mangaluru’s projected population growth. Key highlights of the plan include:

•    Infrastructure Expansion: Laying additional pipelines to connect older neighborhoods to the main grid.

•    STP Crackdown: Stricter enforcement of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) regulations. While new apartments are required to have functional STPs, many older buildings lack them entirely, and several newer units are reportedly non-functional.

•    Budgetary Push: The plan has already been discussed with the district in-charge minister and the Secretary of the Urban Development Department. It is slated for formal presentation in the upcoming state budget.
