Abu Dhabi Karnataka Sangha's love forMuslim-baiter' irks Kannadigas in UAE

October 25, 2016

Dubai, Oct 25: Abu Dhabi Karnataka Sangha's decision to invite Muslim-baiter Chakravarty Sulibele as the chief guest for its upcomingKarnataka Rajyotsava' celebration has triggered a controversy with many non resident Kannadigas (NRKs) in the United Arab Emirates asking the organisers to keep communal forces and anti-social elements at bay.

chakraIn its bilingual invitation card for the November 4 event to be held at Indian Social and Cultural Centre in Abu Dhabi, the Sangha has described Sulibele as anationalist thinker' andgreat orator'. According to organisers, NRI tycoon B R Shetty will preside over the event. On the same occasion sculptor and writer B K Ganesh Rai will be conferred with Da Ra Bendra award.

Responding to the development, Sandhya Baliga, an NRK in UAE said that she was shocked to see a hate-monger's photo on the invitation card on WhatsApp. “This is a blunder on organiser's part. They must drop him from the guest list and preserve the dignity of Kannadigas in UAE,” she said.

Anil Pinto, an engineer from Managluru, who recently found a job in Abu Dhbai, said that the organisers are dishonouring themselves by deciding to honour a self-proclaimed Hinduva leader, who is also a close associate of Naresh Shenoy, the Yuva Brigade leader and main accused in Mangaluru RTI activist Vinayak Baliga murder case.

“This Sulibele had rushed to the prison to accord a warm welcome to the prime accused in the murder case when the latter managed to secure bail last month,” he recalled.

Prathima Bengaluru, who is working as a school teacher in Abu Dhbai, expressing her strong opposition to Sangha's decision, said that the only speciality of Sulibele is that he can provoke uneducated Bajrang Dal activists.

“Unfortunately, the number of such hate-mongers and their followers is growing in Karnataka these days. All of them are anti-social elements. NRIs in UAE are true patriots who remit a huge amount of money to their motherland every month. They should not develop friendship with communal leaders,” she opined.

Meanwhile, some other Kannadigas in UAE have found no fault in Sangaha's decision. “What's wrong in inviting a Sangh Parivar leader as a guest? Now he thinks that provoking Hindus and abusing Muslims isnationalism'. Let him come here and learn true nationalism from us,” said Mohammad Saleem from Udupi, who works for a multi-national company in Abu Dhbai.

“Sulibele's thoughts are very uncivilised and silly because he never mingled with all kinds of Indians. His world is Sangh Pariviar. We should give him opportunity to mingle with good human beings,” said Abdul Basith another NRK from Mangaluru.

While you are in India, you enjoy all sorts of privileges and when you are in UAE, it suddenly becomes communal! Come on, guys, have the courage to face some criticism too; don't just run away from reality; you are getting a taste of your own medicine; who is spewing venom, who's anti national you will know when you invite people like Owaisi Brothers, the vote bank politicians like Didi, Behenji, MS and the like! I guess, you would welcome Pappu to do national justice!

Dear Rasheed...
Many of the non muslims learn islam from islam-haters..which is completely opposite way of the real teachings of ISLAM... its easy for them to divert from the TRUTH cos of their IGNORANCE.

Me and YOU as a Muslim should convey the real basic teaching of ISLAM rather than keeping quiet and letting them to continue their hatred towards the religion of PEACE..

ALLAH controls the heart, We should learn on How Umar RA who was staunch enemy of Prophet accepted ISLAM when the TRUTH was presented by a Muslim.... Until then he was hating ISLAM just thinking what was presented to him by the haters of that time and wanted to attack the prophet pbuh...

TRUTH will Prevail... Dont Judge a person they will not accept the TRUTH...

During the Month of February (SJM) in association with (SEDC) in Mangalore Town Hall conducted a symposium on ‘Madrasa system in secular society’. They invited Yuva Brigade leader Chakravarty Sulibele, who is a popular Kannada orator among Sangh Parivar, he said that the rapid growth in Muslim population around the globe in last few decades was not strengthening the community but making the community poor and weak.

However the population could not be a reason for increasing poverty. “While renowned economists like Amartya Sen talk about how population can be used as a resource for the development of the country, vested interests blame people or population for the failure of governments”.
Stating that there is a need to end misconceptions among people about Islam and its madrasa system, madrasas in India produced thousands of freedom fighters and not terrorists. “Even today madrasa advocates patriotism,” and recent years we see most of Madrasa and Mosque hoisting National flag during National days like Independence day and Republic days, however we can’t see National flag in so called Nationalist Organization RSS headquarters or any Sangh organization.
One must understand the fact that Soolibele and his team will not rest until India become Hindurastra. The so-called secular people in Karnataka Sangh Abu Dhabi make any adjustment with RSS ideology but they won't change their mind-set. each and every opportunity what you provide for them they will make it as a weapon to criticize in other stage. I can understand the intention of the organiser but the outcome will be negative impact on secular NRI Kannadigas, therefore all the like minded people should stand together to defeat the intention of internal organizers.
All these things are happening here in result of recently RSS chief held a series of closed-door meetings in Thanthra Vidya Peettham at Aluva near Kochi in Kerala with prominent NRI businessmen seeking their cooperation in expanding the organisation and strengthening its activities gulf countries.

It looks like Kannada Sangha is a face of RSS. The both invitees are RSS. Dr. Shetty is also a strong RSS man but a big businessman. As par as Mr. Solibele, he is well known anti Muslim RSS youth leader. That is not a big matter. But he was supported and went along to jail to welcome a murderer last month. That too an innocent Hindu RTI activist was killed . Do you need such a Kalanka Man to talk in your Organizations function??? What kind of talk , advise we can expect from such a communal person.
Keep Karnataka Sangha away from all these politics and run the organization with the love and unity with the all religion NRI's who are staying like a brothers in Gulf countries. Don't bring poison from India to our Indian society in the gulf.

Thank God they cancelled his trip.it is purely because of high pressure put by various organizations,community leaders and individuals. I salute them for their brave act of unity.

We Indians in U.A.E. are living in a very brotherly and harmonies way of life.And what made Mr. Shetty and his team to invite a man who claimed he and Bajrarangdal -born to burn Masjid,Church and Muslims.
Karnataka Sangha, Abu Dhabi is biased against certain segment of the society ,and show is run by it's president and his bunch of crony supporters.
And just to eye wash the Kannadiga's they put two of their\ chelas\"( \"houdu basavanna,alla basavaan type\" ) as representatives from Muslim community.

I have seen these 2 Muslim members name in the invitation,shame on them. They should have opposed this move from the day one,but why they kept quiet.?It is shame that they failed to to ensure the brotherly relationships or afraid of President!

Better they come out of this evil Sangha, and be with the Larger Ummaha.

Me being a Kannadiga- very uncomfortable and disappointed by such continually biased act of Karnataka Sangha against Muslims

Hope good will prevail !"

As Mr. Abdul basith said... \His world is sangh parivar...\"
Let him come and see what is the world outside of SP...
There are many who changed their mind when they really interacted with the Muslims ...
It is easy to the cheddis to create hate mongers by showing them only doctored clips and LIES...
Muslims should invite him also and explain what is ISLAM and its teachings...
Cos cheddis have filled their software from very young with hate of islam and humanity.
God has given intellect ... When we grow up we should use our intellect to know if ISLAM really hates non muslims or Not...? Dont be a SLAVE of the cheddi software...
For Grown up cheddi members use your intellect and try to learn what islam says... or U will be in DARKNESS of the REALITY of who is the enemy of humanity."

This is a conspiracy of RSS to spread its hate monger idealogy among Kannadigas working in the gulf states. So far all working here without any differences. So they want to spread this divide and rule policy among NRIs too. Muslim countries do not understand this. These kind of hate mongers, who is not allowing citizens of india to live peacefully, should not be entertained. He should be stopped at all means. Please bring this to the authorities of UAE.

In fact every one Knows about Chkravarthi Sulibele.
Why did Karnataka Sanga plan to Bring Him for Rajyotsava prongram?
He is a communal leader and they want to Build good reputation for him in UAE. that's Why they planned to depict him as public figure.

Muslims in Mangalore also accept the fact that Sulibele Sir is a great orator. A Muslim group had invited him to give lecture on Madrasa. Why can't we invite him? Thum Kare Tho Chamatkar, hum Kare tho balatkar?

Now it is 100% clear the rss chaddi planning to insurt their nose in respective NRIs cultral actuvites. will not allow them to suceed in communal agenda. This is the double game of Mr Shetty. He is also a sanghi rss member now helping rss to create communal tension n to spoil our great Kannadiga unity out side India. Suggest to call UAE local leaders or any rulers family. Last month for one of hindu religious program organizers invited UAE ruling family member.

Some organisation should be take this up to higher UAE authority with detailed information about Sulibele.
Online campaign, through Twitter or other social media should inform UAE authority before too late or before terrorise UAE Indians.
Sulibele will be lead to civil war between Indian communities in UAE if they allow him.

Dubai, May 30: Taking advantage of Vande Bharat Mission, a notorious NRI conman has fled to India through a repatriation flight after duping several businessmen in United Arab Emirates and stealing goods worth nearly six million dirhams.

Yogesh Ashok Yariava, 36, owner of the fraudulent Royal Luck Foodstuff Trading and prime suspect in the audacious scam took a flight to Hyderabad from Abu Dhabi on May 11 with around 170 repatriates.

His mandatory two-week quarantine period would have ended on May 25, but for his 40 odd victims a protracted battle for justice has just begun.

Last Wednesday many of them trooped down to the Indian Consulate office in Dubai in the hope of getting an audience with Consul General Vipul. The following day they went to Bur Dubai police station clutching dud bank cheques.

In a replay of the familiar trading scam, conmen representing Royal Luck Foodstuff approached unsuspecting traders and made bulk purchases against post-dated cheques.

They bought anything they could get their hands on: Facemasks, hand sanisters and medical gloves worth nearly half a million dirhams from Skydent Medical Equipment, Raheeq Laboratories and GSA Star; rice and nuts (Dh393,000) from Al Baraka Foods; tuna, pistachios and saffron (Dh300,725) from Yes Buy General Trading; French fries and mozzarella cheese (Dh229,000) from Mehdu General Trading; frozen Indian beef (Dh207,000) from Al Ahbab General Trading and halwa and tahina (Dh52812) from Emirates Sesame Factory. It’s a long list and it keeps getting longer as more victims come forward.

When their post-dated cheques started bouncing, the traders rushed to Royal Luck’s Opal Tower office in Business Bay. But it was too late. They had shut down and all their 18 staffers had disappeared. Visits to their warehouses also drew a blank.

“Calls made to the company’s sweet-talking purchase managers who visited us days earlier carrying fancy business cards remained unanswered,” said Chandrasekaran Ganesan of Ajman-based Skydent Medical Equipment which supplied protective face masks worth Dh175,875.

Another business owner, Anand Asar said he visited Royal Luck’s office after his cheque of Dh79,552 returned marked insufficient funds. “The security guard at the building told us their staff was last seen on May 17,” said Asar who has since lodged a police complaint.

“I am devastated. I don’t know how I will recover my losses,” said another trader.

Victims reckon the ill-gotten goods have been sold to third parties at dirt cheap prices.

“They have got millions of dirhams worth of goods against worthless pieces of paper. The scammers would rack up huge profits even if they sell our stuff for one tenth their price,” said another trader who pegged his losses at Dh200,000.

The scam comes close on the heels a Dh4 million fruit loot in which 810 tonnes of fruits shipped by Indian exporters to OPC Foodstuff Trading in Deira, Dubai were similarly stolen last month.

Legal adviser Salam Pappinisseri from Sharjah based United Advocates that represents five firms which have collectively lost over Dh550,000 said they are weighing legal action against the prime suspect Yogesh Ashok Variava in both India and the UAE.

“Yogesh, originally from Mumbai, absconded from the UAE with large amounts of money on an emergency evacuation flight. It’s strange that the fraudster got a seat in the flight which was meant to bring stranded Indian citizens who had registered with the Indian embassy and consulate requesting repatriation on urgent grounds,” said Pappinisseri.

New Delhi, Jun 9: Elections to seven seats of the Karnataka Legislative Council will be held on June 29, the poll panel announced on Tuesday.

The seven seats are falling vacant on June 30, according to an Election Commission statement.

Members of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly will vote on June 29 to elect the seven new MLCs.

The Commission has directed the Karnataka chief secretary to depute a senior officer to ensure that the  instructions regarding COVID-19 containment measures are complied with during the elections.

The counting of votes will be held on the evening of June 29 after completion of polls, as per practice.

The notification for the elections will be issued on June 11, the statement said.

MLCs are usually elected by four types of electors -- MLAs, Graduates, Teachers and members of local authorities.

On Monday, the Commission had deferred elections to four seats of the Karnataka Legislative Council -- two each from Teachers and Graduate constituencies -- falling vacant on June 30 due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.

"If MLAs are electors, the size of the electorate is small and the assembly building is the only polling station. When the electorate is teachers or graduates, the number of those who can vote is higher.

Due to the virus, Commission only allowed polls to seats where MLAs are the electors to prevent large gatherings," explained a senior EC functionary.

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 21: A school in the city has allegedly denied admission to a boy whose parents did not fill the religion column in the application form, prompting the Kerala education department to seek a report.

The parents, Naseem and Dhayna, had sought admission for their son to the first standard at the St Mary's school, a government-aided institution. They alleged that school authorities had claimed that registration will not be possible on the education department's 'Sampoorna' portal without filling the 'religion' column.

"We were informed by the school authorities that it was not possible to give admission to our child as we wrote 'nil' in the religion column. They claimed that if nil is mentioned, the admission process will not get registered in the school management software of the education department," Naseem said.

Sampoorna is a school management system project implemented by the Kerala education department to automate the system and process of over 15,000 schools in the state.

The parents later approached the ministry and the Directorate of Public Instruction (DPI) to get further clarification.

"The state government officials denied that there were any issues with the software and confirmed to us that the admission process was going on.

When we approached the school authorities again, they asked us to give in writing that we, the parents will take responsibility of any issues that may occur in the future," Naseem said.

The parents then decided not to enroll their son at the school due to the manner in which the issue was handled by the institution. Reacting swiftly, the state government sought a report from the DPI and the deputy director of the education department on the matter.

"We have asked the DPI and the deputy director of the education department to look into the matter and file a report as soon as possible," Education minister C Raveendranath told PTI. The parents said after the news spread, a school official called them offering admission.

"But we decided not to enroll him there due to the approach of the school authorities," he said.

Naseem runs a catering business after returning from the Gulf.

The school management in a release claimed that they sought a letter in writing from the parents to avoid trouble in the future. "When school authorities asked why the religion column was left blank, the parents said they were not interested in filling that part. The parents have that right.

But most benefits given by the government to school children are based on religion. We just wanted to ensure that the parents take the responsibility in case the student misses out any such benefits in the future," the management said.

School authorities maintained they never denied admission to any student. The parents are now looking for admission for their son in other schools in Thiruvanathapuram.

Ravindranath recently claimed in the state Assembly that over one lakh children in Kerala had left columns relating to caste and religion blank in school admission records during the 2017-18 academic year. In a written reply, he said as many as 1,24,147 children had not filled these columns while enrolling in different classes in government and government-aided schools during the period.
