Shivamogga SP asks people not to spread rumours on stone-pelting incident
Shivamogga: District Superintendent of Police Mithun Kumar has asked the people not to spread fake news and false information about the stone-pelting incident that occurred in Ragigudda during the Eid Milad procession on Sunday, clarifying that the police officers are investigating the case.
News channels have stated that the CCTV camera near the temple at Ragigudda recorded the arrival of two cars to the spot, adding that this has given rise to suspicion regarding the start of the ruckus in Shivamogga.
The SP, clarifying the matter before the media, said, "The two vehicles that were seen at Ragigudda during the incident were from Nyamati in Davanagere district. A group of people that visited Shivamogga in the two cars included both Hindus and Muslims. Their visit to Shivamogga coincided with the violent incident, but the tourists returned to their native town once the situation was back to normal at Ragigudda."
Mithun Kumar added, "We are conducting a comprehensive investigation of the incident that took place at Ragigudda. People are requested not to spread rumours and baseless information regarding the violence in Shivamogga."

US rules out use of nuclear weapons against Iran
Washington DC: The White House has reportedly ruled out the use of nuclear weapons against Iran, even as uncertainty continues over ongoing peace negotiations and a deadline set by US President Donald Trump approaches.
Issues bout a possible escalation had increased after US Vice President JD Vance said that the United States has “tools in our toolkit that we so far haven’t decided to use” in dealing with Iran.
His remarks came amid rising tensions and ahead of a deadline linked to peace efforts.
The situation has attracted attention as Trump warned Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight tonight” if an agreement is not reached by Tuesday at 8 pm.
This statement led to speculation about the possibility of extreme military measures, including a nuclear strike.
Following Vance’s comments, the White House issued a clarification distancing itself from such interpretations. In a post on X, it said, "Literally nothing @VP said here 'implies' this, you absolute buffoons." In a later statement, it added that “only the president knows” what action will be taken regarding Iran.
