'Urus Nirche' Banner burnt by miscreants

Report By: Nina Rai, Pic's by: Prajwal Ukkuda
Mangalore , Monday, February 08, 2010 : In another incident enough to provoke the ire of a particular community, a religious banner was burnt by some miscreants late on Saturday, Feb 06.

Earlier a banner had been put up at Pumpwell circle announcing and promoting the eleven-day religious programme of the Muslim community. The religious function ''Urus Nirche'' is to be held from Feb 18 to Feb 28, 2010. In an unfortunate incident a few unruly elements late at night stealthily burnt down the banner, which has caused the heckles to rise of the minority community.
