Mangaluru, Apr 2: A lecturer of a private degree college at Sullia in Dakshina Kannada district allegedly forced five Muslim girls to remove their headscarf triggering a protest from their community members.

The conflict, however, appears to have subsided as the management of Nehru Memorial College (First Grade) took necessary steps to strike a compromise formula with students with the help of police.

The issue started during a photo session of college students on Wednesday. The students were divided into batches and departments for the photo session.

When the student volunteers of the Indian Red Cross unit in the college were posing for the photo, one of the lecturers interfered and asked five Muslim girls in the group to remove their headscarf. The lecturer reportedly scolded the girls when they refused to remove their scarf.

When the news began to spread several student organisations tried to get involved in the issue. The very next day, the local unit of the Campus Front of India staged a protest in front of the college.

The college management meanwhile sought the help of police to solve the issue. The police convinced the agitators that any female student will not be forced to remove their headscarf against their will.

Giridhar Gowda, principal of the college refused to comment on the issue saying that it was an internal matter of the college.

Nehru Memorial College (First Grade), Sullia sponsored by the Academy of Liberal Education (Regd) Sullia was started in 1976 under the leadership of its Founder President Dr Kurunji Venkatramana Gowda. It is a co-educational institution and offers undergraduate courses in Arts, Commerce, Science, Social Work, Business Management and Post-Graduation in Social Work (MSW).

BIBLE SAYS:
1 Corinthians 11:5-6 : But every wife who prays or prophesies with her HEAD UNcovered DISHONORS her head, Since it is the same as if her head were shaven. For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is DISGRACEFUL for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her HEAD.

VEDA says :
Rig VEDA Book no 8 Hymn no 33 V.no. 19 : When Brahma has made YOU a WOMAN, You should lower gaze and should not look up. You should put your feet together and you should not reveal what the garment and the veil conceals.

QURAN Chapter 33 V 9 : O Prophet! say to your wives and your daughters and the women of the faithful to draw their outer garments close around themselves, that is BETTER that they will be recognized and not annoyed. And ALLAH is ever forgiving , Gentle.

Many people follow the MEDIA which mostly controlled by those who doenst believe in the GOD and
IGNORE what is taught in the RELIGIOUS book which is enlightened by the messengers of GOD for MANKIND...

U decide U want go with the believers in God or not? I congrats MUSLIM who stick to the RULES of GOD....By ignorance many attack them for following God's rule without true knowledge of GOD.

Bengaluru, Aug 7: The Karnataka government would provide Rs 10,000 immediate relief to families affected by heavy rains and flooding in districts across coastal, central and southern areas of the state, an official said on Thursday.

"Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has directed all the Deputy Commissioners in the rain-cum-flood-hit districts to provide Rs 10,000 interim relief to the affected families and Rs 5 lakh to those whose houses were completely damaged in the natural disaster," a Revenue Department official told media persons here.

As the south-west monsoon advanced and intensified, heavy and widespread rains with gusty winds have been lashing 12 of the 30 districts across the state, wreaking havoc and disrupting normal life due to flooding, landslides, lakes and ponds overflowing, and rivers and their tributaries in the spate.

"The Chief Minister also instructed the officials to make use schools, colleges and public places as relief centres to shelter the rain-cum-flood-hit families, as hostels and community halls have been converted into Covid care centres in the affected districts," said the official.

The affected districts have also been advised to conduct a survey of crop loss suffered by farmers for compensation under the centrally-sponsored Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana and the Weather Based Crop Insurance Schemes.

Deputy Commissioners have been told to take preventive measures to protect and provide relief to the people from heavy rains, floods and landslides in the affected districts.

"Yediyurappa also directed ministers in-charge of the districts to remain in their constituency and visit the affected areas to assess damage caused by the rains and flash floods for compensation and relief aid," noted the official.

The Chief Minister on Wednesday announced Rs 50 crore for rescue and relief operations in the affected districts across the state.

Meanwhile, the Meteorological department has issued a red alert on heavy rains in the affected districts of Kodagu, Udupi, Dakshina Kannada and Uttar Kannada in the coastal region and in Shivamoga, Chikkamagaluru, Hassan and Haveri in the Malnad region.

"Bagamandala in Kodagu district where Cauvery river springs near Talakaveri received a whopping 486 mm rain during the last 24 hours, causing flash floods and disrupting normal life as offices, shops and eateries remained shut and public transport was affected," added the official.

The water-level in Cauvery and Lakshmanatheertha is flowing at high level while the Sayi layout and Kuvempu layout Kushalnagar is inundated and the affected residents were shifted to safer location.
