Speaking at the Police Commemoration Day programme here on Sunday, the judge said that in the last year, 414 police personnel, officers and staff have lost their precious lives while serving the society in the country. Their service is ensuring the security and safety in the society is commendable. They were on duty for round-the-clock. If the people have been sleeping peacefully, it was because of the efforts of the police. If there was no police force in the society, the anti-social elements would have been ruling the roost in the society, he said.
Last year, two rowdy sheeters, with weapons, have tried to abduct a person in Gulbarga. But at that time, the police, without any weapons, had arrested the rowdy sheeters risking their lives. The police would not use their weapons as and when they want. The police have been working under mental and physical pressure. People should understand the working nature of the police department and cooperative with them to ensure law and order situation in the society, he said.

Chikkaballapur: As tensions escalate in West Asia, the small town of Alipur in Gauribidanur taluk has drawn attention due to its decades-long religious and cultural ties with Iran, Prajavani reported.
Though geographically far from the conflict zone, residents of Alipur, a town panchayat with a population of around 25,000 Shia Muslims, closely follow developments in Iran. The town is regarded as one of the largest Shia Muslim settlements in South India, and many families here maintain deep spiritual and educational connections with the Islamic Republic.
Over the years, Shia Muslims from Alipur have travelled to Iran for religious studies, pilgrimage, and higher education. The influence of Iranian religious leadership is visible in the town’s institutions as well. A hospital in the village is named after Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s spiritual lineage, and a large portrait of Ayatollah Imam Khamenei adorns the building.
Alipur has also been visited by several prominent personalities from India and abroad. Former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda, Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy, and senior Congress leaders have attended events in the town. In 2018, former Thai Deputy Prime Minister Dr. Sonthi Bunyaratglin took part in a Unity Day celebration at the village’s Nobel School. WWE wrestler ‘The Great Khali’ visited the town in 2021 for a private event, drawing large crowds.
