    Better display the meaning of section 144, curfew and lock down on prominent places in local language so the general public can follow. All are not educated in our society. Also provide enough uninterruped food for 21 days for the citizens so that those days finish in good manner avoiding chasing and beating the poor who are worried about their daily bread.

    Some cruel businessmen raised the prices of vegetables and fruits, authorities should take action against these people too. Common citizens running out of cash.

    In this case one has to do the videography of that said shop and call 100 and lodge complaint without any hesitation. This time is not to make money but to help each other. First of all these shopkeepers should be happy to make business where many others have shut down. Such people are greedy and not happy how much they earned in the past... Accumulating wealth..

    Goergee... They didn't predict properly... Now blame to those who didn't ........ I feel chicken prices are less due to the break out of the bird flu in Kerala and now in Mysuru........Many here buy chicken in kgs. and prepare varieties of delicacies. Some shop keepers out of greed increased the rates against whom you can lodge complaint. Now tell me when will be the rains in Mangalore this time?

    Section 144, is congregation of more than 5 people. If I am not mistaken.

    Individuals always have exceptions if they have valid reasons. Problem is our police think, there should not be any one in the street. There should be a practical way around.

    I agree with you. Section 144 is different from curfew.If all of them had gatherd at one place police is right,if they had gone to purchase essential commodities the arrested persons are not at fault,if they had just gone to open their shops is there anything in IPC or CPC that prevents them from doing so? Will an advocate or knowledgeable person enlighten us? Tomorrow it could be my or your turn.

    Yes.. Exactly... Just now my friend informed me from Belman saying police have asked to shut down the grocery shop which the shopkeeper kept half open in the morning.. Government says medical stores/grocery shops/ milk booths to be kept open But, police do not allow the necessary shops to keep open. Is this curfew or section?? Confusing.. M
