Congress activists took part in good numbers in the Swabhimaana Nadige on January 26 morning to protest against non-selection of a float involving reformer Narayana Guru, which was proposed by Kerala Government, for the Republic Day parade in Delhi.
The Nadige (march) started from Brahma Baidarkala Garodi Kshetra in Kankanady in Mangaluru around 9 a.m. Several Congress activists, including District Congress president Harish Kumar, former MLAs J.R. Lobo and Mohiuddin Bawa, took part in the programme. The march was led by a tableaux of Narayana Guru. The Congress activists followed the tableaux in their cars and two-wheelers.

After more-than-two-year wait, the flyover at Goripalayam junction will be commissioned on Saturday. As of now, the main arm of the new flyover, named after freedom fighter Netaji Subash Chandra Bose, will help to decongest vehicular movement from Tamukkam junction till Nelpettai junction on East Veli Street.
