Mangalore, Jul 19: Condemning the recent incidents of atrocities and sexual assaults on women and minors in the state, the Tulunada Rakshana Vedike has called for a district bandh on Tuesday July 22.

Yogish Shetty, Jeppu, president of Tulunada Rakshana Vedike, who gave the call for the bandh, requested the public and the student bodies to support them, on Saturday July 19, at Press Club, Mangalore.

M G Hegde, advisor of the Vedike said, “Today it is shameful that parents are hesitating to send their children to school. The political parties and the legislators of the state are blaming each other. I question the district administration of Dakshina Kannada as to what actions have been taken by them to create awareness in this regard. In many schools, the parent-teacher meetings are not happening. So, how will the parents come to know who the person responsible for dropping off the children to their homes is?”

“I request the lawyers and the family of the accused in the rape cases of minors, not to support them. Let them get the punishment and let this be a lesson for others not to indulge in such immoral activities. Only awareness will reduce such cases in the society,” he said.

“I request anyone who does not support the mentality of the rapists to voluntarily participate in the bandh and spread awareness. I also request the parents not to send their children to school and thus express solidarity with the child who was sexually assaulted in Bangalore,” added Shetty.

Vijaya Nayar, organizing secretary, women’s wing, said, “After hearing all the news, educated people cannot sit silently. Today, it may be someone else’s daughter, but tomorrow it may be our daughter. Hence, parents should send their daughters to self-defense classes.”

The organizers also informed that a protest will be held on Tuesday in front of the DC office at 11 am.

Ladies wing president Jyothika Jain and secretary Vinutha D’Souza were also present on the occasion.

    The problem is with Mangalore Press Club, y they are entertaining all these people to conduct press meets. They hav to check the validity of press meets before allowing them, or else new like these stuffs would come up day by day.

    It is a Employment Strategy of Sangha Pariwar that every now and then there will be new groups in the name of Vedike or Hindu Rakshaka , Hindu ..... and so on.
    These groups are the Security guard companies. In the name of these so called vedike or Rakshaka or Dal.. they approach companies , theatres, hotels and malls etc.. and get the security contract. Thus their group members will get the job. Those working in their organization members will get the job in contrary they have to attend these Sangha's goonda activities in their duty time.

When we fool realize what these politicians telling us to sell our brains to them. We follow them blindly. what we sow will reach our house also. when you do harm to others certainly and surely will bounce back to you. My humble request to my friends begin to love humans irrespective of caste, creed and religion.

    Dear whoever asking for why the bandh, i just want to ask what action you people are taking to stop all the rapes and other women related issues. Just sitting and commenting about someones shades or blaming politicians will not change anything. Pepole of DK and Udupi are created there own illusion like we are good intelligent people and nothing like UP ,Bihar happens here. Just read the reports dears and take action before it is too late. and stop making personal comment about someone just because she wear sunglasses, may be she is having severe eye issues.Does it effecting you guys in anyway?

    Some more jobless individuals calling for a bundh. What is the point of having the bundh.
    My question to these individuals is, are they trying to help citizens or are they planning on make peoples lives miserable.

    For heaven sake people, use your time in doing something that is constructive and not destructive.

    Why can't he fight for changing the name of our District from Dakshina Kannada to Tulunadu district as his new outfit is named after Tulunadu ?

    How can there be decrease in sexual assault by calling for bandh? There will be only inconvenience to the general public.
    If any lady ignores bandh & rides or drives her vehicle then she may get assaulted by the TRV people!
    Unless there is is fear of law, people wont stop trying for their luck on sexual assault.

    I Congratulate Tulunadu Rakshana Vedike for their strong protest by
    calling Bundh in the District on July 22,2014 for condemning the sexual harassment on Women and the minors. I humbly request all the Advocates not to support the accused persons in the rape cases
    and fight for justice so that let
    these cruked dogs get punishment.
