Karnataka Bandh evokes no response in Udupi
Udupi: The BJP’s appeal to farmers and the public to “voluntarily observe a bandh” across Karnataka today to protest the alleged failure of Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy to keep up his farm loan waiver promise, evokes no response in Udupi as well.
Government and private buses, auto rickshaws are plying as usual throughout the district. Similarly; the schools, which were scheduled to be reopened throughout the state today, are also opened.
No organisation extended its support to the bandh called by BJP.

US Consulate in Dubai reportedly attacked
Dubai: Smoke was seen rising from an area near the United States Consulate in Dubai, according to witness accounts cited by Reuters.
There was no immediate official confirmation on the extent of damage or whether there were any casualties in the incident.
Earlier, the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital, was also attacked. Authorities reported damage to the premises, but no casualties were recorded.
The developments come amid heightened tensions in the region, with Iran continuing to target US interests in the Middle East following deadly attacks launched on Saturday by Israel and the United States.
