    Folks,

    Could anybody please enlighten me why these police officers carry these "Sticks" with them, in public functions?

    Is it "represents" police powers of police state??

    Hope it is not to scare people and make our republic look like "banana republic!

    Jai Hoooooooooooo

    Nothing is in our hand. Accident happens unexpectedly. But in this case we cannot console like that. The Airport Authority is fully responsible for this cause. Since years all passengers were complaining about the unsafe infrastrcute of teh Mangalore airport. Not because the Airport building. Other facilities of the airport, like the location where the runway cannot be modified in compliance with the
    advanced technology of the new version of Aircrafts, dangerous approach roads to the airport etc.
    The concerend authorities neglected all those pleading by the passengers. The authority should feel shame on comparing the Calicut Airport which even not completed 10 years.

    Condolence programme from all different religions together good. But why every now and then anouncement of Rs 2 lacs by Yedeyurappa, as if families of those who lost their kins sent them to die this unfortunate death and waiting for that money.
