Stating that it was for the Centre to frame law on cow slaughter, Home Minister G. Parameshwara has said that law will take its own course against Hindutva groups attacking cattle transporters.
“Nobody can break the law,” he said while speaking to presspersons on Friday. Dr. Parameshwara said there were larger issues relating to illegal transport of cattle and demand for ban on cow slaughter and only a law could address it. “If the Union government comes out with a comprehensive law, we will welcome it,” he said.
IS influence
The State police are on the alert following reports of residents of Kasaragod joining the IS terror outfit. “If we get any information about any organisation influencing people then we will definitely work on it.”
On his promise of removing orderlies, he said the proposal of providing Group ‘D’ employees as followers to senior police officers has been placed before the Finance Department.
Dr. Parameshwara said he was yet to receive the Criminal Investigation Department report into the death of Deputy Superintendent of Police M.K. Ganapathy and on the allegations by him of harassment by the former Minister K.J. George and IPS officers A.M. Prasad and Pronab Mohanty.
