Krishnapur: Class 2 boy donates his savings for relief fund
Mangaluru: A class-2 boy from Mangaluru has extended helping hand to victims of Kerala and Kodagu floods in a unique way.
Muhammad Hisham, a second class student of the Surathkal Katipalla Narayana Guru English medium primary school is the generous boy who came forward for help.
Krishnapur resident BK Hidayat, Hisham’s father, had brought a plastic canister about a few months ago and guided him about saving money. Hisham was saving money in the box, and it was about to fill.
Meanwhile, Hisham, who had watched the recent landslide and floods in Kerala and Kodagu in TV, had seen the distress of the victims. When he saw various organisations and NGOs coming forward for their rescue, he too gave his money canister to his father to donate the money for flood victims. Then his father Hidayat, along with his son, came to Mangaluru and gave the box to the News Department Officer BA Khader Shah. The sum has been sent to the Chief Minister's Disaster Relief Fund.
This act of generosity is getting appreciated in the public.

Kantara mimicking case: HC extends interim relief given to actor Ranveer Singh till March 9
Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka High Court on Monday extended the interim relief given to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh till March 9, in a case related to mimicking a character from the movie, 'Kantara Chapter-1', and allegedly mocking a deity.
The actor had approached the High Court seeking the quashing of the FIR against him for mimicking Rishab Shetty's role as 'Chavunda' deity in the movie.
While mimicking, Singh had called the deity a "ghost". The actor was asked to appear before the court in person on Monday.
Appearing on behalf of the actor, his counsel Sajjan Poovayya said Singh was stuck in London and was unable to reach Bengaluru due to the conflict in West Asia.
The complainant, who is a lawyer, alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt by calling the deity a ghost. On the directions of a local Court, the police registered a case against the actor.
The High Court on February 24 granted interim relief to the actor with directions to the police not to take any coercive steps against him.
