CM Kumaraswamy greets people on Eid-ul-Fitr
Bengaluru, June 15: On the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy wished happy Ramzan to the Muslim community.
In his message, the CM said that with a month-long fasting, the Ramzan would stress on purifying both mind and body. The main speciality of this festival is to give zakat to the poor in the name of food and clothes at the end of the fasting. It is a great message that one should live and let others to live, he said.
At a time when people are igniting hatred among castes and communities and widening the gaps in the society, the number of people trying to create communal harmony is also increasing. At this moment, let Ramazan bring communal harmony, brotherhood and inspire people to go together, he said.

UP: Misled by GPS navigation, car falls into river from partially constructed bridge, 3 dead
Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
