Bangalore, Mar 11: A fight over preparation of mutton and chicken biryani ended up in the cancellation of a wedding which was supposed to be held at a mosque in KG Halli on Monday.

The wedding of Saifulla and Yasmin Taj was supposed to be held on Monday.

The families had arranged for a reception at Golden Heritage Shadi Mahal in Fraser Town on Sunday night.

The family of Taj had got 30 kg of chicken biryani prepared among the other dishes for the reception and sent it to the groom 's side. But it is alleged that the family of Saifulla opposed for chicken biryani and instead demanded for preparing mutton biryani as they do not eat chicken.

However, Taj 's family are said to have not adhered to the demands of the groom, saying they have started doubting the well-being of the bride after the wedding, if such a small adjustment cannot be made.

Seeing how events were unfolding, the bride refused to get hitched. Seeing the groom 's family 's behaviour prior to the wedding, she wondered how she would be treated after marriage.

It is said efforts made by the elders to console both the families till Monday morning failed.

The KG Halli police, which was aware of the incident, said that they had never seen or heard the cancellation of the wedding just over biryani.

The groom 's family decided not to mend fences and took back the mehar that had been given to the bride, police said. The girl 's family filed a complaint with the KG Halli police.

“We are unable to take any case in this matter as there are no strong grounds to register a complaint. We do not want to rub salt on the wounds of both family members by registering complaints against them as it would further damage the possibility of a patch up. We hope the families will sit patiently and go ahead with the wedding,” the police added.

Both families live on Tannery Road. The boy works in Dubai. The marriage was scheduled for March 9 (Sunday) and 10 (Monday).

Mangaluru, Mar 7: Three days after he was washed away at Panambur beach in Mangaluru, a teenage boy’s decomposed mortal remains were discovered in the sea off the coast of Moosodi near Uppala in Kasaragod district of Kerala. 

The deceased is Likhit (18), a first-year PU student and resident of Porkodi. 

The identification was made based on the chain around the neck and innerwear. Fishermen from Uppala spotted the body floating in the sea and brought it ashore.

Following a post-mortem examination at the local hospital, Panambur police were notified and completed the necessary procedures before handing over the body to the family.

Likhit, along with four friends, had gone to Panambur beach for swimming on Sunday evening. Three were swept away by the massive waves. While the mortal remains of two were recovered on Monday, Likhit's body had remained untraceable.

Bengaluru, Mar 19: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Monday said that the Congress will split in three months after the upcoming Lok Sabha polls and its impact will be visible on the Siddaramaiah-led state government.

"Due to internal squabbles, the state government will not last long," the BJP leader said.

Talking to reporters on Monday, he said the sitting MP from the Gadag-Haveri constituency, Shivakumar Udasi, has done a lot of development work and implemented the Central government's schemes effectively.

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi will surely become the PM for the third time. The overall response has been good in the Gadag-Haveri Lok Sabha constituency," the former Karnataka chief minister said.

Asked if he was contesting the election in a half-hearted manner in the Gadag-Haveri seat, Bommai said "such a question does not arise when the party's high command gives instructions".

He said he would respect his opponent and not take anyone lightly.

Mangaluru: Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Shobha Karandlaje said that she will 'definitely' contest for upcoming Lok Sabha election.

Speaking on the sidelines of a farmers' meet organised at ICAR-CPCRI Research Centre at Kidu on Monday, she said, “resentment is common in politics. Aspirants seek tickets from a constituency where victory is confirmed. It will not have any impact on the election.”

She further said, “we are all committed and will abide by the decision of the central parliamentary board of the party."

The list of candidates will be announced in another two to three days.

She said: “The BJP has decided to seek votes on the basis of development. In the last 10 years, a series of development works have been taken up in all the Lok Sabha constituencies in the country.”

“Developments in railways, highway, electrification of railway lines and other works have been carried out in all the constituencies. Railway stations including Subrahmanya, and also in Udupi and Chikkamagaluru districts have been developed under Amrit Bharat Station Scheme (ABSS). Roads have been developed under the Central Roads Fund (CRF). In any village, about 80 to 90 per cent of the people have availed benefits of one or the other welfare schemes of the central government be it Ayushman Bharath, Kissan Samman yojana or free rice from the government," she explained.

“We are 100 per cent confident of winning all the seats in Karnataka. People in the state have love towards Narendra Modi who has come to the state several times with the development projects. People trust Modi and the country needs Modi,” she added.
