    Kasargod and Bhatkal, these two places should be in India's Radar list. Need to be watched very closely.

    Kasargod is rapidly catching up with another much maligned city Bhatkal !!!!!!! a city notoriously linked to anti national & under world organizations !!!!!!!!
    Karnataka & Kerala, have non BJP governments, must ENSURE THAT VOTE BANK POLITICS DO NOT EFFECT INVESTIGATIONS....... NIA & other central security agencies must investigate & convict these traitors & their organizations for
    carrying out sedition & anti national activities in our country.

    Kasaragod becoming Mini Pakistan for illegal activities, Karnataka Government still sleeping. It will be another dangerous city after Bhatkal soon. Beware & take strict action now itself.

    Govt can't hurt the sentiments of their votebank group. Ullal Feku would have already dialed 0824 from exam center requesting to release them.

    Nothing like that .. your sick communal mentality guessing negatively whenever you found minority involved in crimes.I would say DK and udupi districts are become so dangerous for minorities due to violence and attacks on their worship places from saffron outfits. What do you call them? Terrorists?

    why these people always involve in illegal activities.

    can't they live without doing these things.

    think of earning just few money to look after family instead of jumping direct to become a 'rich'.
