Cops foil Hinduvta activists' bid to attack young couple in Deralakatte lodge

June 14, 2016

Mangaluru, Jun 14: Timely intervention of police prevented a possible attack on a young couple by Hindutva activists at a lodge in Deralakette on the outskirts of the city on Monday.

The girl, an MBA graduate from Puttur, and her male relative from Kerala, who the communal hate-mongers mistook for a Muslim boy, were rescued from the lodge and sent home by the police.

According to sources, the girl had recently vacated her hostel room in Deralakatte after completing her master degree in the last academic year.

On Monday after appearing for a job interview in Manipal, she visited her alma mater and stayed in a lodge along with her male relative.

Local activists of Bajrang Dal, who got a wrong information by their sources about the presence of Hindu girl and Muslim boy in the lodge, rushed to the spot.

When they were about to barge into the lodge, a team of police from jurisdictional Konaje station reached the spot and averted a possible attack.

SI Sudhakar warned one of the activists when he asked the former to produce the couple before the Bajrang Dal activists. However, no case was registered and no once was arrested.

Here Cop did NAPUNSAKA Job, they should hacve arrested those bajrangis who are interefering others privacy and life. Instead of thrashing them the inspector warned them . These goons are needed good lesson not warning.
The District Police and Congress leadership are the main reason to grow these goons in our Dakshina Kannada.

Bajrang Dal is the group of illiterate people. They dont have work to do, so they are involved in petty cases. All Ghoorka job should be given to Bajrang Dal people. People should adopt atleast one Bajrangi instead of Dog at home.
Bajarangis are not educated people, so they are suitable for ghoorka job.

The trouble makers should be given HOT / SPICY ROD treatment.......Then only, they will learn to wag their tails.....

No case was registered take them to your home and treat them biriyani with liquor.heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Major facelift for Mangaluru's sporting heart: Mangala Stadium set for 2-month closure to upgrade synthetic track

News Network

December 15,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Educational institutions in Mangaluru that rely on the popular Mangala Stadium for their annual sports events are bracing for an inconvenience as the city's key sporting venue is set to close its gates for a significant upgrade. The stadium is expected to be unavailable for approximately two months starting from January 15, 2026.

The closure is necessitated by a proposed overhaul of the stadium's facilities, with a special focus on upgrading the synthetic track. Pradeep Dsouza, Assistant Director of the District of Youth Empowerment and Sports (DYES), Dakshina Kannada, confirmed the development.

"Experts have visited the stadium, conducted a thorough inspection, and have given the go-ahead for a complete makeover," Dsouza stated. "Funds have been allocated for the project, and we are currently awaiting the final green signal from state officials to commence the work. We anticipate that the work will likely begin in the second week of January. Consequently, we have stopped renting out the stadium to colleges and other organizations in preparation for the upgrade."

The timing presents a logistical challenge for colleges, as many schools have already concluded their sports meets.

"Colleges will now be organizing their events and will need to find alternative locations to host their sports meets," Dsouza added. He suggested a few potential venues, including the Dakshina Kannada police ground, University College grounds, Panambur grounds, Swaraj Maidan in Moodbidri, and the Mangalore University sports grounds in Konaje.

However, many institutions note that finding a comparable venue will be difficult. While the DK police ground and University College grounds are closer to the city center, they do not possess the extensive facilities and infrastructure offered by Mangala Stadium.

Dr. P Dayananda Pai - P Satisha Govt First Grade College, Carstreet, is one such institution dependent on the stadium. Principal Jayakar Bhandary expressed hope for a swift completion of the work. "We expect the work to be completed at the earliest. If not, we will be forced to look for other venues to host the sports day for our students," Bhandary said, highlighting the pressing need for the city's main sporting facility.
