The police have over reacted and have closed down the entire city instead of identifying troubled locations and placing only those locations under curfew. In areas which are free of troble, they have not made the public involved to take care of these areas. Moreover, most of the police are in Chikmaglur taking care of the Jatra there and trouble makers from both communities have taken law into their hands to creat trouble and confusion. All those who have been arrested till now should be punished by making them clean the city roads and the garbage pits under police supervision for 6 months .This is the best way to punish these offenders.
