Mangaluru, Mar 22: A day after Bharatiya Janata Party officially confirmed the candidature of incumbent MP Nalin Kumar Kateel from Dakshina Kannada Lok Sabha constituency, the Congress today decided to field Youth Congress district chief Mithun Rai. Interestingly both candidates belong to strong Bunt community. 

Former Dakshina Kannada district in-charge Minister B Ramanath Rai, education entrepreneur Kanachur Monu, former Mangaluru North MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava, former Minister Vinay Kumar Sorake, Rajya Sabha member B K Hariprasad and SCDCC Bank president M N Rajendra Kumar were among the other aspirants for Congress ticket. 

Besides, former union minister B Janardhana Poojary had also demanded ticket and recently threatened to contest as an Independent if the Congress fielded Rajendra Kumar.

The Social Democratic Party of India, which hopes to garner Muslim and Dalit votes, has already fielded party’s state president Ilyas Mohammed Thumbay from Dakshina Kannada.

Mangaluru, Dec 20: City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy has issued a high-alert warning to vehicle owners regarding a surge in cyber fraud targeting those looking to pay traffic violation fines. Fraudsters are reportedly exploiting recent government discount schemes on traffic penalties to deceive citizens.

The Scam: How Fraudsters Strike

Criminals are using SMS, WhatsApp, and social media to circulate suspicious links and APK files (Android application packages). They claim these apps allow users to pay e-challans at a discount.

•    Device Hacking: Downloading these unauthorized apps gives hackers full access to the victim's smartphone.

•    Financial Theft: Once the phone is compromised, fraudsters intercept OTPs and personal data to drain bank accounts.

•    Phishing Sites: Fake websites mimicking official portals are also being used to harvest banking credentials.

Already, two residents within Mangaluru city limits have reported significant financial losses after falling victim to these fraudulent apps.
