"Both social and economic development is included in ourcountry's developmental perimeter because ours is a diverse country. We will have to progress, keeping in mind inclusive development of all," Vala said.

"While focusing on development based on technological research, we should not forget our diversity, because it is our basis" he said, unfurling the Tricolour at the 67th Republic Day celebrations here.

The day was observed amid heightened security in the wakeof the recent arrest of six suspected terrorists with ISIS links from Karnataka and also a threat letter received at the office of the Consulate General of France here.

Vala, who took the salute during the ceremonial parade, said all should together strive towards making the country more powerful and work for all round development of the state.

He said secularism is the 'backbone' of the country and culture and it has been rightly tailored in the Constitution.

Complementing the state government for its progressive initiatives like mobile governance, amendment to the Panchayat Raj Act and new industrial policy, Vala also made a special mention about Karnataka’s participation in popular central government programmes like Smart Cities and Digital India.

The first ever participation of a dog squad in the parade, march past by a Maharashtra Police contingent and disabled students were among highlights of today’s Republic Day celebrations here.

Mangaluru/Udupi, May 22: Two prominent Qadhis of coastal Karnataka today declared that Eid al-Fitr will be observed in the region on Sunday, May 24.

Twaqa Ahmed Musliyar, the Qadhi of Mangaluru and Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal, Qadhi of Udupi Samyukta Jamaat in their separate statements made this announcement. 

The decision was taken as there was no news of new moon sighting in the coastal region today.

Moon sighting for the start of the month of Ramazan, for end of fastings- Eidul Fitr, for the month of Hajj and Muharram:

The moon sighting is so easy. We the people of India and have Indian Standard Time all.over India. 

When we can accept the moon sighting in Delhi and announcement from Delhi as it was during times of Radio and Doordarshan news, why can we not accept the sighting of moon in coastal region of Karnataka and in Kerala?

Let us bring about change for good.

Why is rest of Karnataka or India not joining for Eid with coastal region and kerala? At the time of Radio and Dorrdarshan only days, all of India used to wait for 8.00 pm news for updates of moon sighting. So why not accept the moon signing witnesses in Kerala or coastal region?

 

I request all Indians to accept the witnessing of Moon sighting in any area of India and start and end Fasting.

Amidst heightened border tensions between Indian and China, senior BJP leader and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's two year old tweet comparing his party with Communist Party of China started going viral. 

The tweet, dated 26 June, 2016 reads: "Communist Party of China & BJP have done numerous works in social field. This way, there is tremendous similarities between the two parties." (sic)

Twitterati dug up this tweet after over 20 Indian Army personnel, including a colonel, were killed in a clash with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh earlier this week.

Soon after Chouhan's tweet went viral, netizens took to the micro-blogging site and slammed BJP. One user said, "Interesting comment by Hindutva ITSELF to recognise how similar they are with China. No doubt. Both believe in Dragon Throne .... and brutal absolute control." Another user said, "No wonder the BJP & China both agree that PLA never crossed into Indian territory."
