Mangalore, February 5: Muslim Central Committee, Dakshina Kannada and Udupi, president and former chairman of Karnataka Minorities Commission Al-Haj K.S. Mohammed Masood and eight others have been booked for allegedly conspiring to set off riots.

The Bunder police have registered cases under sections 153 (a), and 505 (2) of the IPC against them based on the complaint by Vishwa Hindu Parishat vice president Jagadish Shenava.

Two days after Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat delivered a speech at the Hindu Samajotsava in Uppinangady, Mr. Masood had called a press meet to condemn the 'provocative speech' of the RSS leader. Mr. Masood has been booked for presenting a distorted version of Mr. Bhat's speech and trying to disturb peace.

Mr. Shenava had filed a complaint at the Bunder police station on 25th January, but the police had refused to book a case saying there was no basis for the complaint. However, 10 days after the complaint was filed, Bunder police booked a case against Masood and others.

Mangaluru, May 10: A new chapter in Mangaluru’s infrastructure story unfolds on May 16, as Chief Minister Siddaramaiah arrives to inaugurate two transformative projects: the newly built Deputy Commissioner’s Office at Padil and a world-class indoor stadium at Urwa.

These developments signal a strong push toward better governance and enhanced urban amenities in the coastal city.

₹75 Crore DC Office

The new DC Office, spread across a modern campus at Padil, comes with a price tag of ₹75 crore. Initially budgeted at ₹55 crore, the project received an additional ₹20 crore under the Smart City Mission, aimed at integrating technology and convenience in public administration.

“This facility reflects our vision of a centralized, people-friendly government. With 23 departments under one roof, citizens can now access services more efficiently,” said District In-charge Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao.

The phased relocation of departments will begin on the day of inauguration and be completed over the next 2 to 3 weeks.

₹35 Crore Indoor Stadium Opens Doors

Also on the agenda is the grand opening of Mangaluru’s new indoor sports complex in Urwa, built for ₹35 crore. This ultra-modern facility is equipped to host national-level indoor events and will offer quality training infrastructure for emerging sports talent in the region.

Initiated during Siddaramaiah’s previous term, both the stadium and DC Office projects are now ready for public use and are expected to create lasting impact.

“These projects are not just buildings. They are investments in governance, youth, and the future of Mangaluru,” said Rao.
