Uppinangady: In a video that has gone viral on social media, a Mannagundi Nelyadi woman resident has accused the BJP and Bajrang Dal gang of assaulting her and her employee three days ago while they were taking home a female calf belonging to the woman after the day’s grazing. Reportedly, the victimized woman is seen crying in the video detailing the physical assault inflicted on her by the BJP and Bajrang Dal gang.
The woman who was assaulted and victimized in the incident is receiving treatment in a private hospital at Nelyadi. She has reportedly demanded that the police help her obtain justice in the case.
Incident Detail: The woman, who is a resident of Mannagundi had been running a small shop at Parishanthi and as part of her daily routine, every morning she used to bring her female calf for grazing and tie it close to her shop. On April 27, as per usual, she had opened shop while her calf grazed close to her shop, it is learned. At the end of the day, after closing shop around 7.30 pm, the man she had employed known as Kumar was taking the calf back to her residence when a gang of 10 BJP and Bajrang Dal men arrived in a Bolero and another accompanying car and stopped him accusing, “You are taking the calf for slaughter” and began assaulting Kumar. When the woman learned of the matter, she immediately arrived at the spot and she was attacked by the gang who verbally abused her, tore her clothes, assaulted her, and snatched the Mangalsutra on her neck, the victimized woman said in the video.
“After sustaining injuries, I admitted myself to a private hospital. From the gang who assaulted me, I have already mentioned the name of Kokkada’s Mahesh to the police. Despite this, no case has been registered”, the victimized woman accused.
FIR will be registered, then an investigation will be undertaken: Kumar Kamble
The Sub Inspector at the Uppinangady Police station Kumar Kamble responded to the incident and said, “The woman who is making allegations of assault by a gang had refused to file an FIR while giving a statement earlier. And investigations have revealed that during the time of the assault, this woman was not at the site. Now, the video of that woman speaking about the incident has become viral. Therefore, her statement will be recorded once again and an FIR will be registered, investigations will be undertaken. If during investigations it is found that there is no truth to the allegations and the woman has given a false complaint, a case will also be registered against her”, he said.

Elephant calf brought from Bijnor kept under care at Pilibhit Tiger Reserve
Pilibhit (PTI): A 19-day-old elephant calf, brought from Bijnor, was placed under care at the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (PTR) on Sunday, an official said and added that the calf got separated from its mother in the forest area of Bijnor.
The calf was born on December 2 in the Bijnor forest area and got separated from its mother shortly after birth, the official said.
The forest department made several attempts to reunite it with its mother, but without any success. To ensure the calf's safety and better care, it was decided to transfer it to the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve on the instructions of senior officials.
On Saturday, Deputy Director Manish Singh received the calf. Special arrangements have been made in the reserve for its care. It has been kept in a safe and clean environment to provide it with a natural setting and protect it from external noise and disturbances.
Singh told reporters that raising an 19-day-old calf is challenging.
It requires a special diet as a substitute for mother's milk and constant monitoring.
He said a special team has been formed to provide 24-hour care. Since the calf is very young, it is being cared for like a newborn baby.
According to Singh, the primary responsibility for monitoring the calf's health has been entrusted to PTR's veterinarian, Dr Daksh Gangwar. Under his supervision, a complete record of the calf's health checkups, diet, and body temperature is being maintained. The team is ensuring that the calf does not contract any infection.
