Secularism in India means equal treatment of all religions by the government. With the 42nd Amendment of the Constitution of India enacted in 1976, the Preamble to the Constitution asserted that India is a secular nation. But, for this senior politician of India secularism is lack of pedigree!

Hardcore Hindutva leader and Union Minister for Skill Development has said that people without any pedigree were identifying themselves as secularists.

"If a person identifies himself as a Muslim, Christian, Brahmin, Hindu, it means that he knows what his blood is. But, I don't know how to identify these secularists. Those who do not have any pedigree, designate themselves as secularists," he ridiculed.

The minister, who represented Uttara Kannada lok sabha constituency was speaking after launching the website and women's wing of Brahmana Yuva Parishat in Kukanur of Yalburga taluk on Sunday.

"I presume there are no secularisits here. Identify yourself with our caste or creed. You know what your blood is," the minister said.

He has been selected to create communal tension before elections and polarise Hindu votes. He has no values other than being a street fighter and a trouble creator. A Frankistein created by BJP's top Delhi bosses. Talks about pedigree. The Aryan pedigree of Northeners are upto subjugate South Indians and Hegde follows the orders of his masters

Mangaluru, Feb 27: An utterly unprofessional thief, who fell asleep after breaking into a house, was caught by the house owner and handed over to the police in the coastal district of Dakshina Kannada.

The hilarious incident took place on Wednesday in the one-storey, tiled-roof house owned by Sudarshan at Ullas Junction under the limits of Uppinangady police station.

The thief, who gained entry into the house by removing the roof-tiles, has been identified as Anil Sahani, a native of Bihar’s Majipur district. He was snoring on the sofa with a set of keys clutched in his hand when the house owner woke up in the morning.

The house owner, who was sure that the thief was drunk, woke him up by hitting him with a stick and then handed him over to the police.

According to police, the thief was tired after removing the tiles on Tuesday night and hence he decided to take a nap soon after entering the house.

He grabbed a bunch of keys kept near the TV stand and then lied down on the sofa. He woke up only when the house owner hit him with a stick the next morning.

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 28: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has sought Prime Minister Narendra Modi's intervention to remove the blocking of roads including state highway along the border of Karnataka in view of lock down to contain the spread of COVID-19.

In a letter sent to the Prime Minister on Friday evening, the Chief Minister said certain actions by the Karnataka Police have resulted in the blocking the Thalassery-Coorg State Highway-30. This road connects Kerala with Coorg in Karnataka via Veerajapettah. This route is a lifeline for flow of essential commodities to Kerala."

"If this is blocked, vehicles carrying essential commodities will have to travel a much longer route to reach our state. Given the situation of national lock down, this will add much more hardship to people," it said.

"You will naturally agree with me that no action impeding the movement of essential commodities should be initiated at this moment of crisis," he hoped.
