    This is just the beginning for whats in store for Mangalore, Mysore and other developing cities of Karnataka...Every week temporary laborers in hundreds are coming in from mainly Uttar Pradesh and some from Tamil Nadu here. No police verification is done and nabbing such criminals will be impossible once they go back. Hence, I sincerely request the sleeping Police Department of Karnataka to wake up and make it mandatory for every contractor, factory etc to have police verification done and provide information every time new migrants come here for work, else make it a cognizable offense for not doing so..Being in the construction line I personally have come across workers from UP who are absolutely notorious and not fit to stay here...Are we going to wake up when Delhi like crime begins here.

    RIP. When a woman lives alone at home at her old age, should have alerted some body. Relation with neighbours, always required. Some body knew the amount of gold she was having. Should have kept a dog and well built safety doors locked after 6.00pm.
