SDPI stages protest against atrocity on dalits and minorities
Mangaluru, June 28: The members of the district unit of the SDPI staged a protest against atrocities on minorities and dalits across the country, in front of the Deputy Commissioner's office here on Friday.
Addressing the agitators, SDPI district secretary Iqbal Bellare said that when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was like Hitler, JDS-Congress coalition government was keeping mum on the violence being engineered in the name of cow and Sri Rama. In Dakshina Kannada district, the police have been following dual standard. They were not showing courage even in arresting those who transport cattle illegally, he alleged.
About cattle transportation incident at Belthangady, the MLA has made provocative statement and thus tried to disturb peace in the district. So, the police should book the MLA under Section 153(1) and take action, he demanded.
SDPI president Athaulla Jokatte presided over the programme. SDPI state leaders Akram Hassan, Ashraf Machar, district leader Ashraf Manchi and others were present.
Leaders Ayaz Krishnapura, Abdul Jaleel Krishnapura, Antony PD, Anand Mithabail, Rakesh, Shahil SH, Noorullah Kulai, Zakir Hussain Ullala, Ismail Shafi Babbukatte and others were present.

Delhi Police, NSG conduct mock drills at IGI, metro station, school
New Delhi (PTI): The Delhi Police along with the National Security Guard (NSG) conducted security mock drills at the IGI airport, Rajiv Chowk Metro Station and DPS RK Puram here late Friday and early Saturday.
The drills come days after nearly 200 schools received hoax bomb threats.
The drill was conducted at IGI airport at Friday 10 pm by the NSG commandoes and Delhi Police.
As part of the drill, the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), which looks after the security of airport, was alerted about a mock terror attack.
Other agencies like fire department and Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) also joined the drill, which went on for at least half an hour, an officer said.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (IGI) told the media "no need to panic. It is a terror attack mock drill exercise which is being conducted in a coordinated manner with other agencies."
A similar exercise were conducted at Rajiv Chowk Metro Station at 1 am and Hyderbad House at 1.30 am and at Delhi Public School in RK Puram at 3 am.
At the school, the security personnel checked their preparedness against a terror attack or a bomb plant.
Earlier on Friday, mock drills were conducted at Taj Palace Hotel, Yasho Bhoomi in Dwarka, Kashmere Gate Metro Station and the New Parliament building in central Delhi.
An officer said though all bomb threats turned out to be hoax on Wednesday, they could not afford to take any chance, hence the mock drills.
