Uneasy calm prevailed in violence-hit Bengaluru on Tuesday (Sept 13) even as protests resumed in Mandya and Mysuru over releasing Cauvery river water to Tamil Nadu.
“The situation is peaceful across the city. No fresh incident has been reported since morning. Security, however, remains tight and forces are on high alert,” said Bengaluru Police Commissioner NS Megharikh.
Curfew was relaxed since morning for Muslims to offer Eid prayers at mosques in 16 sensitive localities where it was imposed on Monday night after violence and arson rocked the city over reported attacks on Kannadigas and their property in Chennai on Monday.
Condemning attacks on Kannadigas and their properties in Tamil Nadu over the century-old row, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said people in other states should cooperate in maintaining law and order. “At this time of difficulty, we should not allow anger to take over. Strict action would be taken against anyone indulging in vandalism, causing harm to people and damaging public property,” he added.
