Mangalore: Bomb Threat at Kudroli Temple; Police on Alert Daijiworld Media Network—Mangalore (CN) Pics: Dayanada Kukkaje
Mangalore, Nov 23: The city police control room received an anonymous phone call at 8.00 pm on Sunday November 23, claiming that a bomb had been planted on the premises of the Kudroli Gokarnatheshwar Temple here .
The bomb squad and a police team led by Dharmayya, deputy superintendent of police, immediately reached the spot and carried out a search operation. After over an hour of investigation, nothing was found.
Simultaneously a similar threat was received at the Kollur Mookambika temple.
Tight security has been deployed in all the major temples of South Kanara after this threat. Police are trying to trace the origin of the call.
Its time to awake. As PM of India rightly said police force need reforms. Once they learn their fundamentals there will be a hope. Mangalore was a beautiful place to live. It is a communally divided place now. Please try to restore the peace and harmony.
Mr. Kiran Acharya, Udupi- I guess you have completely missed out my point. The visual evidence itself should reflect the inhuman behavior of our police force . It was not a great achievement beating up young children, ladies, nuns, and elder citizens using the guise of maintaining peace…???
Kiran good observation and Acharya good observation too. One thing that stands clear is that the police showed disrespect to God and People when they stormed the churches and started beating people who were actually spending time in prayer. There were some elderly people reciting the rosary ( christian bead prayers) who were man-handled and lathi charged. Who gave the police the tip off ? Was the caller ever identified or was the call traced ? And now we have just heard the bitter truth of the Malegaon blasts. Need I say more. May God rebuke the evil-doers.
Kiran Mangalore/ Sathyam Muscat Please do not comment for the sake of commenting. I have not noticed anyone removing their footwear while entering even the holiest of churches...(also notice chappals worn by people coming out of churches in this post (if you need visual evidence) http://www.daijiworld.com/news/news_disp.asp?n_id=51210&n_tit=Mangalore%3A Situation Turns Violent at Kulshekar%2C Vamanjoor %3A Police Cane Mob)
Some forces do not want our twin districts to prosper in spite of having all the talent/ resources...in the name of terror/ environment/ communal events...investors are given a grim picture...Scenes which we enjoyed in this post of Daijiworld... (http://www.daijiworld.com/news/news_disp.asp?n_id=53953) may be just a dream as long as these elements rule our mindset!
MR KIRAN MANGALORE, GREAT OBSERVATIONS TIMELY COMMENTS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!.
This is what happens when you manage the state with religious agenda. The state government must learn the lesson and change their attitude. Provide peace and justice to every citizen and don't create criminals in Karnataka.
I am really surprised to see the police force respecting the holy places by removing their foot wear.......in spite of the emergency! But this decent behavior was not practiced by them during the recent communal riots in Mangalore!!!
Its a shocking news. But the "SHOCK" is only for a day or two and then everything is forgotten till the next call!! I am just worried about our system cause no measures are taken at any religious places to curb such acts. I agree its not an easy job to monitor each and every one as there are thousands of devotees in temples/churches/mosques... But how much is the administration doing to protect the place? why cant they have some security devices installed? monitors fixed to observe the movement of people in the temples? God has to protect himself as well as his people...
Shocking news.
This was a very cheap act by the miscarents to disturb the pease in the area but i see the people have learnt from the past and were least bothered about this threat , i can see lots of devotees in the temple infact there was a bomb threat, now the bomb to every INDIAN looks like a diwali pataka
It is very sad to say our mangalore becomes very dangerous city in south canara.because it is second tragedy within week,before Infosys now golden temple of south canara.Home ministry & police department should be tackle out this situation very soon.
In the past terrosim was against people and the country. Now the terrorism against the churches, temples and mosque. God only can save stop these people from destroying the houses of god.
It is not Mangalore has become dangerous city in South Canara. It is South Canara become dangerous place in Karnataka. This phenomena is the result of the divisive, hatred ideology spread by fanatic groups over 30 years. Even though this is sad but it is the truth. Selfish individuals and groups for their own recognition and identity divided the community in the name of religion, belief etc. Today the community is reaping what has been sowed by these unscrupulous group. The only solution is ban all religious activities, religious celebrations, religious processions etc. Let religion be within the 4 walls. All religion place of worship should not have loud speakers system. Only silence prayers should be allowed so that people will live in peace and harmony. Religion should not become non sense to the community.
Shocking news. Culprits are still active to disturb the peace and unity among community.
Strange that calls coming into the police control room cannot be traced quickly. More deliberate attempts to disturb peace and create unnecessary trouble.
Itss realy shocking news.Now a days mangalore becomes very dangerous city in south canara.
