    Its a shame on such thieves who even steal from the religious premises. How long will they survive on that and more over the real culprit are those who are jobless and their crooked minds compel them to steal some wait they they get jobs some have devils mind and they do such roberies. So on the whole its the govt who have failed the young boys and girls looking for jobs in the country. We hope and pray they come back for their devilish path.

    Too bad act indeed and the culprits will be traced by the competing police force we have at the earliest.

    Well said. You have very aptly put in your write-up. albeit, one lunatic seems to have derived the pleasure to click the "disagree" button to disagree with you. Maybe on purpose. Nevertheless.

    Helmet clad assailants of Gauri Lankesh could be caught, why not these burglars ? Well, very soon.

    I wonder why thieves still do not understand the difference between a Temple and a Church. If all four collection boxes and the doors force broken caused a mere Rs. 10,000/-in losses, guess the amount of collection in each box. Imagine the figure if ONE collection box from a temple had been stolen !

    Burgling a wrong place. Plan/logistics, labour and petrol may have costed more than the catch.

    And, with lethal arms ? To fight God ? Possible.

    Could be cow lifters with lethal weapons. Couldnot find any cows left anywhere so might have their eyes on this one. Kumarswamy being a secular person should get these under muzrai department so nobody loses anything and All goes to the government .
