On December 19, police firing led to the deaths of two people during violent anti-CAA protests in the city. Despite the loss of two members, Muslim groups are planning to come out in numbers and peacefully protest on January 4.

The Muslim Central Committee is an umbrella body of several Muslim organisations in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts. In a statement, the organization appealed to the public to refrain from spreading any inflammatory messages on social media or taking part in activities that disturb the peaceful protest.
