Mangaluru Jan 7: Nearly four days after he was brutally attacked by a gang of communal hatemongers without any provocation at Kottara Chowki in the city, 47-year-old Basheer passed away at a private hospital on Sunday.

Basheer had sustained deep injuries in his head and chest in the attack. Medical sources said that he did not show any sign of  recovery in four days and breathed his last at 8: 10 a.m. today.

Basheer used to run a fast food outlet near Kottara Chowki. On the fateful day he was returning home after closing his outlet in the night. Half way through a gang of four waylaid him and attacked with lethal weapons.

Two ambulance drivers, who saw Basheer lying in a pool of blood, had informed the police before rushing him to a nearby hospital.

The random attack took place hours after another gang of miscreants hacked a youth, Deepak Rao, to death at Katipalla area in the city. All the accused have been arrested in both the cases. According to police, the intension behind the attack was to create tension in the region.

As soon as the news of death began to spread, police tightened the security across city. ADGP Kamal Pant visited the hospital where Basheer passed away. The family members already started preparations for the last rites of Basheer.

Sources said that Basheer's second son Irfan, who landed in Abu Dhabi just three months ago, is expected to reach Mangaluru by evening. His elder son had returned from Middle East two days ago.

ನನ್ನ ಮಗ ಗಲ್ಫ್ ಗೆ ಕೆಲಸ ಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋಗುತ್ತಿದ್ದರೆ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದನೋ ಏನೋ? ( ದೀಪಕ್ ರವರ ತಾಯಿ)

ನನ್ನ ತಂದೆ ಗಲ್ಪ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ಇದ್ದಿದ್ದರೆ ಹೀಗೆ  ಆಗುತ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲವೋ ಏನೋ? (ಬಶೀರ್ ರವರ ಮಗ)

ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಭಾರತೀಯರಿಗೆ ತನ್ನ ಸ್ವಂತ ದೇಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಭದ್ರತೆಯನ್ನು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಸಿದ ಈ ಪರಿಸ್ಥಿತಿಗೆ ಕಾರಣ ಕರ್ತರು ಯಾರು? ನಾವು ಆಲೋಚಿಸಬೇಕಾಗಿದೆ.

Bengaluru: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Wednesday stated that speaking in favour of Pakistan is wrong and constitutes treason. However, he emphasized that an inquiry is ongoing in the case of an alleged mob lynching of a man accused of shouting "Pakistan Zindabad" in Mangaluru.

“If the slogan ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ was shouted, it is wrong, regardless of who said it. The inquiry is still underway, a case has been registered, and we will determine the appropriate action based on the report,” Siddaramaiah said in response to questions from reporters about the killing.

He reiterated, “If anyone speaks in favour of Pakistan, it is wrong. It amounts to treason.”

Home Minister G. Parameshwara confirmed that a person was “lynched” in Mangaluru and said that those arrested claimed the victim shouted "Pakistan Zindabad."

“This is under investigation. Only the arrested individuals have made this claim. Nearly 20 people have been arrested so far. The police are also verifying the identity and background of the deceased. We are taking the case very seriously,” he said, noting that several people present at the cricket match where the incident occurred are being questioned.

Responding to allegations that the police initially attempted to portray the incident as a suicide, the Home Minister said, “We have no such information. If any such discrepancies are found during the investigation, appropriate action will be taken.”

According to police, the deceased has been identified as Ashraf from Pulpalli village in Sultan Bathery Taluk, Wayanad district, Kerala.

The incident occurred during a local cricket match near the Bhatra Kallurti temple in Kudupu village, on the outskirts of Mangaluru, on April 27. Ashraf was allegedly beaten with sticks, resulting in multiple injuries that led to internal bleeding and shock. He was declared dead at the hospital.

Mangaluru: Dakshina Kannada district has secured the top position in Karnataka in the SSLC (Class 10) results for the academic year 2024–25, with a pass percentage of 91.12%, as announced on Friday.

In the previous academic year (2023–24), the district had ranked second in the state with a higher pass percentage of 92.12%. Despite a 1% drop in the pass rate this year, the district has risen to the top position. In 2022–23, it had ranked 17th with 89.52%.

Deputy Director of Public Instruction (DDPI) Venkatesh S Patagar attributed the district’s improved rank to several focused initiatives. Among them were the timely completion of the syllabus by December 2024 and subject-wise special classes.

Special attention was given to slow learners through dedicated support classes. The department also organized fortnightly parent meetings to track students' academic progress.

To instill discipline and a consistent study routine, schools made regular wake-up calls to students in the mornings and evenings. Other initiatives included model question paper practice, the 'Jnana Sinchana' live YouTube series, online doubt-clearing sessions, and interactive radio phone-in programs.

Students were also encouraged to attempt the 'Vijayeebhava' question paper series, developed and published by the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Udupi.
