    And victims' families chose immediately to retaliate. May this Muharram instill patience consistent with this important occasion and what it represents.

    All these problems are occurring because of vote gaining divisive policies of BJP government of Karnataka. They want to win election at any cost including the lives of youngsters. If there is any God of any religion, he will punish them.

    This is why people voted and now they are harvesting the crops in abundance......Karnataka was a peaceful place and now we have started competing with UP & Bihar models of public administration. This is what the politicians want to remain in power so that people remain busy attacking each other.....without any benefit to the society.

    Game plan will be slowly but surely executed by Tadipar mentality to divert voters anger from Government failures, price rise , unemployment, pathetic roads, loot trough toll gates , etc. Keep going . Jai hind.

    People take law in their own hands when government becomes partisan and connives to the whims and fancies of one community.... As long a corridors of power stink of one sided rule we the people have to bear the brunt of head strong goonda mentality people... Excuses and cover ups come later but can not bring back the tranquility in the lives of the most affected... And then life goes on...

    "The police claim that the incident had taken place due to old rivalry." This is a preliminary report. Let the investigation be complete and find out real reasons behind the attack ?
