Nalin Kumar tweeted “Eve-teasing and incidents of harassment has no place in the state under BJP government. We will not allow anybody to hamper with peace and harmony of the state”.
ಫೋರಮ್ ಮಾಲ್ ಘಟನೆಗೆ ಸಂಬಂಧಿಸಿದಂತೆ ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಇಬ್ಬರು ದುಷ್ಕರ್ಮಿಗಳನ್ನು ಬಂಧಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಯುವತಿಯರನ್ನು ಚುಡಾಯಿಸುವ ಹಾಗೂ ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದಾಗ ಹಲ್ಲೆ ನಡೆಸುವ ಪ್ರಕರಣಗಳನ್ನು ಸಹಿಸಲು ಬಿಜೆಪಿ ಸರ್ಕಾರದಲ್ಲಿ ಅವಕಾಶವಿಲ್ಲ. ಮತಾಂಧರನ್ನು ಮಟ್ಟ ಹಾಕಲು ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಬದ್ದವಾಗಿದೆ ಎಂದು ಆಶ್ವಾಸನೆ ನೀಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.

Bomb threat prompts security sweep at Lourdes Central School in Mangaluru
Mangaluru (Karnataka) (PTI): A bomb threat email sent to Lourdes Central School on Thursday triggered a major security operation, with police and bomb disposal squads conducting a thorough search of the premises, authorities said.
The email, received late on Wednesday night, warned that a bomb would explode at 9 am.
Upon receiving the alert, personnel from the Kadri Police Station rushed to the school along with the bomb detection and disposal squad.
A comprehensive inspection of the campus was carried out, police said.
Dog squad teams were also deployed to assist in the search operation to ensure that no suspicious object was left unchecked, a senior police officer said.
Authorities said similar threat emails have recently been sent to other locations in the state, including the Dharwad Court Complex and the Mangaluru Court, prompting heightened vigilance.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the sender names used in the emails appear to trace back to Tamil Nadu, though the authenticity of the identities is yet to be verified.
Further investigation is underway.
