Justice Forum condemns government move of refusing high-level judicial probe
Mangaluru police firing case
Mangaluru: The December 19 Golibar Justice Forum has condemned the state government's move of refusing to conduct high-level probe into the Mangaluru firing case. The forum has warned of carrying out a movement over this.
The firing and lathi charge incidents of Mangaluru are being described as a pre-planned act. In case it is pre-planned act, investigation should be held to find out who had pre-planned it. The state home minister's statement that had come even before the investigation shows that the State government wants to protect the pre-planners, said Jaleel Krishnapur, convener of Justice Forum.
Only protesters are being shown guilty of that day's incident. But some CCTV footage of the day's events and video clips being spread on social networking sites have been accusing police of provoking for the incident. In such situation, it is inappropriate to believe police report.
Attacking police or setting fire to police station is like attacking the legal system. Therefore thorough investigation should be carryout in December-19 Cade and facts should be brought before the society and legal action must be taken against the culprits, urged Justice Forum.

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.
