Mangalore, Jul 16: “We need to shed our laziness, inhibitions and develop attitude of questioning to bring about a revolution for Human rights and equality,” said Prof Narendra Nayak, Convener of Balakedarara Shikshana Prathishtana.

Addressing the inaugural programme of the city unit of Rashtriya Manava Hakku Balakedarara Kendra on Monday in the city, Prof Nayak said that consumer rights are similar to human rights in many ways. He said that due to lethargy and laziness of common man human rights violation has been happening persistently.

“Many a times, those who want to raise their voice against the same keep quite due to other personal commitments. We can certainly not protect our rights if we do not question,” he said.

Centre was inaugurated by Kendra's national President Shankar Shetty who said that Rashtriya Manava Hakku Balakedarara Kendra was formed in 1997 and has been connected to Human Rights Commission.

“Due to the Human Rights Commission police atrocities have been curbed to a very large extent,” he said.

Centre Mangalore Unit President U Padmanabha Shetty Niddodi welcomed the gathering.

Deeds Director Merlyn Martis, Convener of the Centre Dayananda Shetty, Vice-President Jayalakshmi S Hegde, Secretary Harish Kumar Shetty, Treasurer K M Devikiran Shetty among others were present.

Mangaluru: The Mangaluru CEN police have arrested a 23-year-old man for allegedly posting provocative and misleading content on an Instagram page named “mr_a_titude”, targeting the Bajpe police.

Mangaluru Commissioner of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy C H identified the arrested as Abhishek M, a resident of Katipalla in Mangaluru.

A case has been registered at the Bajpe Police Station under Sections 353(1)(c), 353(2), 56, and 57 read with Section 189 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) in connection with the post.

According to police, the accused uploaded a photograph of a hotel on the Instagram page and alleged that accused persons in a murder case under the Bajpe police jurisdiction were being given “royal treatment” by the police, including being served beef meals daily from the hotel.

The post further accused the police of supporting criminals, misusing their authority, and betraying public trust. Police said the content was provocative in nature and aimed at inciting public outrage against the police.

Following the post, a case was registered at the Bajpe police station, and further investigation was transferred to the CEN police station.

Police records indicate that the accused has a criminal history, with multiple cases registered against him, including murder, attempt to murder, assault, and robbery at the Surathkal Police Station, and one case at the Kaup Police Station.

The Commissioner said the accused was traced and arrested using technical evidence.
