People from the northeast were safe in Karnataka, Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said on Thursday while warning that those spreading rumours would be severely punished. "I request the nation through you, don't spread such rumours... there is peace, all steps have been taken," Shinde told reporters outside parliament.
"There is no incident in Karnataka, this is just rumour. People need to avoid rumours... There is no incident... full stop... no incident," Singh said.
An estimated 5,000 people from the northeast fled Bangalore in special trains to Guwahati as rumours spread of violence specifically targeting those from the region following the ethnic violence in Assam.
