RSS workers should be allowed to carry weapons: BJP leader Suresh Kumar

October 18, 2016

Bengaluru, Oct 18: Former Karnataka minister and senior BJP leader S Suresh Kumar on Monday said RSS workers should be allowed to arm themselves.

Addressing a protest in Shivajina gar against the murder of RSS worker Rudresh R by two motorcycle-borne men, Suresh Kumar said if police are unable to provide protection to RSS workers, they should be allowed to carry weapons.

"The murders of Kuttappa, Praveen Poojari, Raju and Rudresh (all RSS wor kers) make it clear that police are not able to protect them.

We have asked the police commissioner to give us weapon licences if they can't protect our workers," he elaborated later when asked to explain his remark. "We are not victims. We are warriors. We know how to protect ourselves," Suresh Kumar said.

However, the RSS and other senior BJP leaders didn't back his statement.

The former law minister said the government and police have time and again failed to protect RSS workers and the organization is being repeatedly targeted. He claimed state police are under political pressure to not act against the culprits. Senior BJP leader Shobha Karandlaje, who addressed the protest, alleged the killings are part of a conspiracy.

Earlier, the former minister told the protesters a trend similar to that in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where several RSS workers have been killed, is emerging in Karnataka. He demanded police to take measures to ensure Karnataka doesn't become another Kerala.

Distancing itself from Suresh Kumar's statement, sources in the RSS said they have confidence in police and the judiciary, and will continue to stage peaceful protests to get justice in the Rudresh murder case.

Asked about Suresh Kumar's statement on arming RSS workers, former home minister R Ashoka andLok Sabha member PC Mohan said that was their colleague's personal opinion. The issue was neither discussed in party meetings nor is it the party's stand, they added.

WHY ??? THEY DONT HAVE GUN OF THEIR OWN. I THINK EVEN NAREN TOO WANTS THE GUN. HE ALSO DONT HAVE. POOR CHEDDY?

Donkey never disobedient to its master... whatever loaded on it, it will take...
Similarly there are few human beings despite lot of evidence of the cheddis involvement in deception... They never want to accept the REALITY of their deception and want to continue like the donkeys take their load.. with their mind filled with lies.

We say wake up guys.. look outside the cheddi installed software in your mind and use your God given intellect.
An intelligent human being will understand when shown with proof... and many times cheddis were caught of their dirty activities of doing their evil acts and blaming others...
Karkera exposed their evil acts...
Writers too exposed them
Bomb blast in their own cell
Saffron IT cell exposed with their fake display of nationalism
JNU video tampered
cheddi wearing burka caught red handed last week...
Cow business exposed too
Pakistan flag hositing too caught red handed
Fake FB account too caught red handed...
Only God knows how much bombs they keep in their own temples to create unrest in the society...

Naren, you must be Godse's elder brother....calm down guy....we all know what is RSS all about.....

No wonder. Over and again they openly admitted that they are the manufaturers of terror factories.

Jihadis are having honey moon period as it is khan grace govt as this govt licks their feet ....but everyday is not Sunday ....if jihadis are so powerful...they must directly fight ...not from behind ....if jihadis were so powerful they would have ruled whole world thru oic ...but looking at their mujra infront of Israel only we can make out hahaha....if sangh decides jihadist forces shud run for cover like how they ran in gujarath and muzzaffar Nagar ...we are showing maximum restraint becoz we honour our constitution and respect rule of land....bholo Bharath mata ki jai ..jai sangh parivar ....

We already carry it inside our jockeys......what about chaddeez...if they don't have then why they are wearing it..
.

@Brother Venki Cracked a good Joke.Joke of the Millennium.
Do we have another sample like VENKI in India.Please let us know.We need to send to the Kargil area to entertain our Soldiers.So that they can relax their mind by listening such Jokes.
G

What a funny guys they have with them. Mangana Kaiyalli Manikya...
Give them rights to allow Weapons as well allow them to Shoot who ever they wants.

Aur kya kya chayiye? Ek lambi list karo aur khadey hojao line mey.. Dharpok insaan.. LOL .
Some are getting Y guards, some are for Z guards.. Some need x guards.. Until when you chaddis will keep begging??

Hahaha. Saale Darrpok. No doubt they are criminals. Because they are always afraid of death. Noorukala iliyagi baalokkinta mooru kaala huliyagi baalode melu.

Someone was barking before that 60% of the police are from RRSS....
Where are they NOW ... why dont they Protect Your own men even after we citizens pay from our tax money for their jobs.... U cheddis are useless in taking responsibility to protect the society and now they dont even able to protect their own members..

Are the 60% turned their hearts and became good and thought of helping people rather than continuing supporting the cheddi evils... if it is, then it will be good for the people and the society...

Dear,

Please now itself list out your other demands, we will support for police commissioner permission.

Hope your request is to only for your so called brahmin community ?

Disaster, dont forget that they killed father of nation, Mahatma Gandhi, cant trust them at all....

Tourism dept to enforce stringent pool and beach safety guidelines in coastal Karnataka

News Network

November 19,2024

In the wake of the tragic drowning of three students at a resort near Ullal on the outskirts of Mangaluru city, the tourism department in Dakshina Kannada is set to implement comprehensive safety guidelines for properties with swimming pools or beach access. This initiative aims to ensure guest safety and prevent similar incidents in the future.

New Safety Mandates for Resorts and Homestays

Rashmi S.R., deputy director (in-charge) of the tourism department, announced, “We will instruct all homestays and resorts to enforce precautionary measures, especially those with pools or direct beach access. Properties must ensure 24/7 supervision, particularly during guest hours. This tragedy highlights the importance of having trained personnel on-site.”

Key Safety Guidelines

The district, home to around 150 homestays and 130 resorts, will see the following measures enforced:

Clearly displaying pool depths.
Installing adequate safety equipment, such as life buoys.
Employing trained lifeguards at all times.
Establishing clear pool operating hours.
Reviewing and implementing standard operating procedures (SOPs) for pool and beach usage.

Booming Beach Tourism Calls for Vigilance

Manohar Shetty, president of the Association for Coastal Tourism (ACT), Udupi, highlighted the growing popularity of beachside resorts, particularly during peak seasons. Properties in Udupi, often fully booked with tourists from Bengaluru, Mysuru, Kodagu, and Shivamogga, face increasing pressure to maintain safety standards.

Udupi district boasts 22 beachside commercial properties catering to this rising demand.

Shetty emphasized, “Authorities must scrutinize safety measures and carefully evaluate guidelines before issuing new resort licenses. Panchayats should rely on the Karnataka Town and Country Planning Act when handling such cases.”

Long-Term Solutions for Water Safety

Recognizing the need for a cultural shift in water safety, Shetty proposed integrating swimming lessons into school curricula. This move would not only equip students with essential skills but also encourage safe participation in water-based activities.

A Safer Tomorrow for Coastal Tourism

As the tourism sector thrives, Mangaluru’s proactive approach underscores its commitment to visitor safety. The tragic incident serves as a wake-up call, propelling the industry towards stricter regulations and better preparedness, ensuring that coastal vacations remain both enjoyable and safe.

Udupi’s Kamini Island set for eco-friendly development to boost tourism

News Network

November 15,2024

Udupi: The Tourism Department is planning a major eco-friendly development initiative for Kamini Island, located near the Blue Flag-certified Padubidri End Point beach, aiming to attract more visitors while maintaining environmental sustainability.

Assistant Director Kumar CU emphasized that, given the island’s proximity to the Blue Flag beach, all development efforts will center around eco-friendly practices. “We are looking to enhance the Kamini River and the island’s surroundings by adding a hanging bridge, nature trails, and eco-friendly food courts offering traditional cuisine. Visitors will also be able to reach the island by pedal boats or kayaking,” he said.

The development project is estimated to cost between Rs 3 crore and Rs 4 crore. Meanwhile, the Blue Flag beach, Padubidri, continues to see a steady flow of visitors. Vijay Shetty, manager of the beach, shared that tenders for food courts and water sports have been awarded to private parties. Recently, three new coracles have been introduced, which are proving to be a hit with visitors. Additionally, three more shelters are expected to be ready by November 20.

Shetty mentioned that the beach can now accommodate between 2,500 and 3,000 visitors daily, although footfall remains lower than other district beaches due to user fees and activity restrictions. “Initially, most visitors were from Mangaluru, but now nearly 40% come from other districts, showing a shift in the visitor demographics,” Shetty noted.

To further boost tourism and promote a healthy lifestyle, a Beach Carnival is set to take place on November 23-24, featuring the National Sea Swimming Championship and a sea marathon in collaboration with the Padubidri JCI, which is celebrating its golden jubilee. Cultural events will be held at the main beach, with some sports events taking place at the Blue Flag beach. Emphasis will be placed on making all activities environmentally friendly.
