communalismMangaluru, Jan 25: Dinesh Amin Mattu, the media advisor to chief minister Siddaramaiah, has said that he condemned communalism cutting across religious and political groups.

Responding to Karnataka BJP spokesperson S Suresh Kumar’s demand for his resignation from the post of CM’s advisor for his remark on recent terror arrests, Mr Mattu said he is ready to quit if the former is ready to leave the communal party (BJP).

Reiterated his impartial approach in opposing communal polarization, Mr Mattu, who is also a former journalist, said that he not only opposed saffron outfits like RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal, but also raised voice against Social democratic Party of India and Popular Front of India.

Expressing pain over youth of Hindu and Muslim communities being attracted towards communalism, he pointed out that not only people like Azhar Mahmoud and Ajmal Kasab, but Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, Swami Aseemanand, Col Purohit and Bhuvit Shetty are also enemies of humanity.

1 clarification,

PFI, SDPI are emerged to defend the communalism of all these RSS, VHP, BJP non-secular groups.

SDPI are definitely a secular minded political party. Getting more popularity amongst Dalits.

As Monu said, there is no comparision of crimes between

I wonder ......some time even secular minded people to show as secular use the comparison of Organizations such as PFI and SDPI to Fascist RSS , VHP and Bajrangdal.......there is no similarity between these ideologies............except organizing power and discipline .....

PFI never raped and killed innocent Indian citizens
PFI never indulged in anti anti national activities
PFI never took law into hands
PFI never wanted an Islamic state in INDIA
PFI always hoisted Indian national flag in all its programs
....etc etc etc

this is so sad to that second time Mr.Mattu used PFI and SDPI as shield to show secular face

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.
