Teacher arrested for killing student

A professor at the Guwahati University has told the police that he killed a student who he was allegedly having an affair with.

Birlang Narzary has been teaching in the department of Bodo for the last three years. He says that when his student, Jhorna Owary, visited him at his house on campus on Sunday, he killed her.

Narzary's colleagues say that he was upset after he found out that Jhorna was involved in another relationship. Jhorna disappeared from her hostel since Sunday afternoon; her cell phone could not be reached.

After the murder, Narzary allegedly drank phenyl and then surrendered at the police station.

Terming the student's killing a 'stray incident', Dr Romoni Barman, the Joint Director of the University, said that there is enough security on campus but to monitor students at all times is not possible.

Karnataka Chief Minister on who attacked church

Facing flak over the twin attacks on churches in Karnataka, Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa on Tuesday said he suspected the hand of an "organised group" which was trying to tarnish the image of the BJP government.

Speaking to media after the Republic Day function here, he said "I am aware of the incidents. Since these incidents have happened before the Republic Day, I suspect some organised group is trying to tarnish the image of the
government which is working for the welfare of the people."

Two churches were attacked and the statue of Mother Mary damaged yesterday in Mysore and in Uttara Kannada District.

Yeddyurappa said he had spoken to the police on the attacks on the churches, and assured that action would be taken against the culprits.

"We are committed to protecting the interest of the minorities," he said.

His comments came after Governor H R Bhardwaj in his Republic Day address said that it was the "constitutional duty of every government to deal with heavy hand the forces who tend to disturb communal peace and harmony".
